I gave a quick shout-out to Givecoin on the Burn & Brew podcast today:

Doing my bit to raise awareness for the coinbase as part of a pitch for doabitofgood.com

Great news.

However, what's happening with devs? We haven't heard from them in awhile? It's pretty much you that's keeping this thread and apparently the actual coin alive... that's not very encouraging from devs.

It would certainly be nice to hear what are they planning, if they're planning to do anything with this coin at all. C'mon Givatoshi, let go of the CLOAK for a second and GIVE us some news. Tongue

Thanks for the props :-)

You're absolutely right though that we should have an update from the core team.

I can relay that doabitofgood.com is sincerely committed to this coinbase and we are establishing a "digital trust" to help pay for additional development and support. We are closely tracking some other coinbases for best of breed implementations and have been giving some guidance to the team.

We are doing alpha testing right now on our "intra-site" trading platform that will allow donor/subscribers and organizations the ability to exchange their coins within our system. This is an important step before we open up the ability for our "underwriters" the ability to acquire coins from their favorite causes and put them back into circulation which we hope will begin a "virtuous cycle" in charitable giving.

If you are really into GIVEcoin for pro-social reasons, put a stick in the ground and either open a free deposit account on our system or just donate coins to our community driven "#BIT4BIT fund 7GiveThnMDszMG4CWHLUagoGgoScpdGKVS

You can read more about our plans to sponsor a High School FIRST robotics team competition starting this Fall.
