The number one question I receive by friends after “What is Bitcoin?” is "What can I do with it?"
A few teams are working on a protocol that would add many innovative capabilities for Bitcoin users. It’s a decentralized sidechain called Echo, that aims to develop a suite of financial mechanisms and instruments.
We want to facilitate the development of applications that would make your lives as Bitcoiners more convenient. We will be hosting a hackathon soon with a few other teams in the industry to reward programmers and entrepreneurs with making the services that society actually demands. What application or service would be a value addition for you right now?

https://www.docs.echo.orgThe thing that I most like about crypto is being able to feed my family in my home country. They don't need to understand how it works, I just deposit to my father's bank account and he's happy about the quickness of it. Emergencies and such I always help and I know they appreciate my efforts, I don't know how I'd be able to support people in Venezuela otherwise (currently Western union and similar "worldwide services" don't work with Venezuelan bolivars) so I'm thankful to bitcoin for existing.
