Let's put out an offer for someone really skilled, but give him insane deadlines and pay him one fifth of the bounty if he missed this deadline.

What a brilliant idea. If I were a programmer capable of implementing ring signatures in a satoshi based client within such a ridiculously short time, I sure as hell wouldn't make it for a random coin.

I'd make my own.

We're going to increase the time to 1 month. I myself know 1 week is ridiculous after contacting few pro coders. Still waiting for MyFarm. Please respond proactively thank you. Honestly why would u make your own when u cant handle it later? Scam a few peps that what ur saying?

If someone is capable of integrating ring signatures into the satoshi client, they are way more capable than you are anyways, so why would they do it for you instead of creating their own altcoin? Dreamcoin is looking to be the next big pump, that's it.

Because marketing is hard. If there's a **well distributed** community of motivated stakeholders **both big and small**, then it's WAY more lucrative for me to give the community something it wants than to go create yet another altcoin that might be technically interesting but has no active users. Besides, I don't learn anything releasing code that nobody runs.

Scamming is for bitcoiners. I'd like to believe this community has a dream of something better

See this guy is a hero for us, i love the fact that he doesnt just want to "make a new coin" as theres already hundreds rotting away and give DRM a new life as the first ever POS anon currency.

So here's the deal... You, the Dreamcoin community, have to make some hard decisions, and tell me what's really important. Cause I can do development fast, but to do that, I need to US dollars to pay my bills and possibly hire other people.

But I'd rather do **high quality work** rather than another quick pump-and-dump. That is NOT going to come quickly, and might involve dramatically changing some coin fundamentals, because there are a lot of broken fundamentals in different places because someone grabs something derived from the Satoshi bitcoin client, makes a change, and doesn't fully understand what they are doing.

Satoshi had a brilliant concept with blockchains, and Bitcoin was a great first implementation. Proof of stake was a pretty interesting addition. Now we have Dreamcoin, which has a great name. But you don't achieve your dreams without making a few mistakes, and learning from them along the way. So here's an idea.. wouldn't Dreamcoin be the ideal coin for a fully distributed crowdfunding system, like http://blog.vinumeris.com/2014/05/17/lighthouse/ ?

I could probably implement (and most importantly, test) some sort of ring signatures and/or darkcoin-like anonymity protections for $50k to $100K USD in a couple of months. If there's no money, and I'm doing this in my spare time, it might be 6 to 18 months. It might be a lot faster if there is a community that comes together out of something more that just the 'next big coin'.

Excellent post, looks like you will do the break test and etc yourself by the looks of it. Dreamcoin can become really professional through this quality work. Yeah man im sure we raise a atleast $5000 in the beginning and hey we have MyFarm. I sure aint looking for a shit pnd but a long term potential coin here. I understand that POS cryptonote is a different algo all together and it will be much harder if thats what you are aiming. I will try getting BTC and DRM addresses started later hopefully. Is there any chance you maybe commit full time to this at some point? I sent an email addressing ETA, could you state the processes you will be doing as well?

Hello everyone, it is unlikely many of you know Dreamcoin but we are aiming to be the most rarest and innovative anonymous coin in the ALTsphere. Dreamcoin current stands at 1.8mill total coins, with 15% annual POS interest.

What we want to do is transition Dreamcoin from a satoshi client to a monero and darksend client in order to become anonymous through both ways. This will make Dreamcoin to be the first Cryptonote/Darksend POS coin resulting in a new algorothim all together that will generate a lot of demand through the masses.

We are looking to achieve a goal of 100BTC in whatever form you can donate, here are the addresses:

1. DRM address: D67tnkGnibd1fe3gPLdmrsnRx2hhYYQh6g
2. BTC address: 1DoEFszLXdt6PB4nLEno4HtgvcTzqhFB34
3. Dogecoin address: DPaqvjVaLmo81ek29RPGqPzdys2MTxcrVD

Currently it is being traded at Poloniex as well: https://poloniex.com/exchange/btc_drm

Be serious 100BTC?

firstly only escrow level member would be acceptable to hold the coins

second 100BTC to create some coin mixing feature?

You don't need to go crazy on anon stuff, i'm sure one or the other would be sufficient, you can spend the other 80BTC on creating some real use for the coin.

Right now the coin works fine and is quite rare. I see no need for this price crash considering the minting number.

The escrow level person should only release coins gradually to the developer as it is proven to be working fine.

What would donators get in return? always have to make it worth their while.

There is no need for donations at this time all info continues at this thread
