Bounties are a great idea, and it should have been done from the start.
We could use the promo fund (what is it currently being used for anyway???)
I do believe its being used for just that, but its not being done in an organized, publicly visible way. If we were to pursue the above, it would allow everyone to see what is planned, being worked on, etc. And in turn, it would hopefully spark a competitive atmosphere amongst devs to release the greater product. I definitely think this should be implemented right away!
These are all great ideas. UTC is a solid coin, and the community is wonderful. What it desperately needs is publicly visible leadership - not just one person, but someone that will lead the dev effort, someone that will lead the bounty management, someone that will lead marketing, etc. With those people in place, the community will have a good sense of where things are going, and a clear idea of who is doing what.
This can't wait.
also another urgent matter is the pools problem, on nitro I think the top 10 miners should be banned to switch to another pools because, right now, nitro2 did more damage than good by attracting miners from other pools...
