Topic: [BPS] Bitcoin Project of the Season - Winter 2014 - Winner: BitWasp (Read 22840 times)

Thanks everyone! We have one logo on github https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/1475958?s=300 We haven't put much work into that yet!

Is there a logo? I could not find one.

Indeed, a worthy project!

Congrats Bitwasp 

And the winner is BitWasp! Congratulations!

Sounds good, thanks for elaborating!

Thanks for nominating my project, Bitwasp, as project of the season. Some of the links I posted on the Bitwasp thread here are a little outdated, so I may as well write a little about us here.

We had hoped to make an alpha release in December, but have put this off in order to have the site support multisignature transactions. Escrow, or upfront payments, are all done using 2-of-3 addresses. It's a little manual at the moment, but I hope to make it really simple once BIP32 extended keys are out there.

All the transactions are scraped from the blockchain, so the site never holds the coins, (or any private keys), meaning if the site goes offline coins are recoverable by the buyer/vendor over another channel. Disputes are done by crafting a new raw transaction for the users to sign.

There is a feedback system for buyers, vendors, and items purchased, to help people assess the rating of the others. I'm actually pretty close to having multisig working in Bitwasp, this should follow in the next week or two. Someone has volunteered their time to create a new responsive layout for Bitwasp, so sites will look great on all devices. He's trying to make it as customizable as possible so people can develop their own in the future.

I think the demand for multisig is huge.. Our goal is to make commerce with bitcoin as simple and safe as possible. We have a test site, http://test.bit-wasp.org (not currently demoing the multisig stuff, just a live wallet), and forums at http://bit-wasp.org.

Thanks again!

Added the wasp open ASIC and bitcoinreminder.com to pre nominations for the next season.

Yup. It wonder if it's any better on the foundation forum (not that I like the foundation too much).

Yes, this place has become way to noisy. Especially for users that go by "Show unread posts since last visit." to browse the Forum (and don't have set Boards on Ignore).

I think it gets buried in spam sadly

few voters

so sad

Voting is open!

Please cross check the entry descriptions.

Sure you can.

thanks

naaah, sorry, this is not a Bitcoin project but competition imho.
