I suggest awarding them six generation shares if they provide an option of tipping people with devcoins, and for people to take their tips in devcoins or bitcoins.

I completely agree. At some point there will be wider recognition that hoarding and limiting distribution were counter-productive notions for long-term growth.  gittip.com - interesting idea, I'd never heard of it

I have been learning about devcoin the past little while, following bitcoin for much longer, and naturally being a developer myself, planning on how best to get involved in these two communities. Mining is out of the question, no capital.

I do however have skills in software development and admire what devcoin stands for. A perfect match. I'm sure many other developers will feel the same way once they find out about devcoin.

I'm kind of impressed and amazed at how well constructed and planned out devcoin is, what with its original bitcoin base and its GroupCoin precursor. A lot of care was put into it, that's for sure.

A bit of my economic theory on devcoin:

It's not that devcoin gives developers value but actually the opposite, I think. Over time, developers will contribute to the value of devcoin. Since they contribute most of the value, they receive most of the benefits, not the miners. Truly a fair coin.

So far, my only contribution whatsoever to devcoin has been the purchase of a few on vircurex and the purchase of devcoin denominated shares on crypto::stocks, which personally I feel is a better investment than just holding coins, at this time. Whatever you do, I don't recommend trading for bitcoin (or heaven forbid paper money) at this time.

And a small suggestion to the administrators of devcoin. Either work with these guys, or let's get devcoin on there as a top giver: https://www.gittip.com/

It seems to me that their priorities are aligned with the purpose of devcoin, and it would be a great way to get more (and almost free) publicity.

Thanks for reading.

I'm just using the lotto as a:

base 56
base 56
base 56
base 56
base 56
base 46

random number generator, in order to get a single winner. It is not based on getting the most right numbers, which can result in multiple winners. For example, the four writers around:

11, 20, 55, 10, 12, 19

are:

CryptoAddicto,0.175002834329,10,45,46,17,38,35
Cryptobyte,0.183335762759,11,15,53,39,47,11
Cryptopi,0.20139610968,12,16,33,22,14,8
DeadSea33,0.271447775456,16,12,15,33,4,22

if the lotto had been 11, 14.., Cryptobyte would of been the winner. If the lotto had been 12, 17.., DeadSea33 would be the winner.

Yeah, I would think it would be like the real lottery -- choose whoever got the most right. Appears the two that were listed above as possible winners had none of them right.

Edit: Cryptopi got one right... the other had 0.

Sorry to ask always newbie-like questions.
I never played any lotto or similar games.
I just want to win my ignorance.

My given numbers were

Dexter   0.338140355992   19   53   23   48   55   37

So, I got two numbers. But how do you establish the winner?

Sorry for the dumb question, thankx for the patience.

Yaaay, ok send me a PM please cryptopi so I can get your delivery address

The numbers were drawn for the Tuesday lotto:
http://www.megamillions.com/numbers/drawDetails.asp?drawDate=6/4/2013

on the page they do not give you the numbers in the order they were drawn, for that you must go to the video:
www.megamillions.com/numbers/video.asp?quality=low&date=6/4/2013

in order they are:
11, 20, 55, 10, 12, 19

from lotto.csv:
https://raw.github.com/Unthinkingbit/charity/master/lotto.csv

the numbers around that are:
Cryptobyte, 0.183335762759, 11, 15, 53, 39, 47, 11
Cryptopi, 0.20139610968, 12, 16, 33, 22, 14, 8

so the winner is Cryptopi.

Oh wow, that's pretty cool. What does it link to?

Yeah thats a QR tried to make it sexy.

What QR code are you guys talking about? Is the "V" in the logo a QR code? No smart phone here (gasp) so can't test myself, just curious, :p.

Ok cool thanks, these custom ones freak out sometimes.

QR code worked fine for me.

I am too quite a dedicated follower of this forum only, no time for others, but not even caring about them. Maybe I am wrong in concentrating my energies on this DVC idea, but it is the one on which I can identify myself.

Well the ltc forum, I think I cross posted it here. But on ltc forum I have my fpga project which has lots of followers so though it a good spot to start it out.

And no one ever told me if the QR worked ok for them too!

It's one of my favorite designs - definitely in the top 3.  How much longer before a winner is chosen?  There has to be 15 submissions by now.

Lol, I saw that too.   Maybe Jaisn is trying to tell us something - time to venture out of the nest a bit.  I've been out on the Romanian forum, ixCoin, and a couple other ones.  Devcoin is only one of my favorite coins - I'm trying to cover my bases for when Bitcoin 2.0 strikes again.

Good luck!

This is my DVC logo, made a few days ago.
If you think it was a nice idea, maybe you can work on it. There is always room for improvement.

Same. Found out why I didn't know, too... it was posted on an LTC forum. I don't follow that at all, :p.
