Devcoin is an ethically inspired cryptocurrency created in 2011 to support open source projects by programmers, hardware developers, writers, musicians, painters, graphic artists and filmmakers worldwide. Devcoin is one of the longest running blockchain based digital currencies. Devcoins can be merge mined with Bitcoin, earned by developing, writing or completing tasks known as bounties, or purchased on various exchanges.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD1EWGQDUTQ&list=PLxObfLyCN6IGynvSC6iM6ItNGE0dxkYR8 Open Source - we freely publish our 3d designs, schematics, instructional videos, budgets, and product manuals on our open source wiki and we harness open collaboration with technical contributors. Low-Cost - The cost of making or buying our machines is, on average, 8x cheaper than buying from an Industrial Manufacturer, including an average labor cost of hour for a GVCS fabricator. Modular - Motors, parts, assemblies, and power units can interchange, where units can be grouped together to diversify the functionality that is achievable from a small set of units. User-Serviceable - Design-for-disassembly allows the user to take apart, maintain, and fix tools readily without the need to rely on expensive repairmen. DIY - (do-it-yourself) The user gains control of designing, producing, and modifying the GVCS tool set. Closed Loop Manufacturing - Metal is an essential component of advanced civilization, and our platform allows for recycling metal into virgin feedstock for producing further GVCS technologies - thereby allowing for cradle-to-cradle manufacturing cycles High Performance - Performance standards must match or exceed those of industrial counterparts for the GVCS to be viable. Flexible Fabrication - It has been demonstrated that the flexible use of generalized machinery in appropriate-scale production is a viable alternative to centralized production. Distributive Economics - We encourage the replication of enterprises that derive from the GVCS platform as a route to truly free enterprise - along the ideals of Jeffersonian democracy. Industrial Efficiency - In order to provide a viable choice for a resilient lifestyle, the GVCS platform matches or exceeds productivity standards of industrial counterparts.

We are two bitcoin enthusiasts who also happen to be amongst the nine founding members to a local, young, and small outdoors-oriented NGO. The founding members are mostly childhood neighbours, and friends. Our main hobbies are biking, camping, hiking, football, generally spending time outdoors. Also, giving the fact that we live in a country where throwing your can from the train after illegally drinking beer is still something casually done, we had to do something. That had to be cleaned, so we started by organizing three voluntary cleaning activities in our city, involving a few of the local authorities, and another one in a different county, on  a beautiful park with trees hundreds of years old that still needs saving. Cities are becoming overcrowded, and the green areas are getting smaller and smaller. Deforestation is also a huge issue here, we wanted to combat that by planting trees, paulownia to begin with, as it caught people's interest very easily. We are still working on that, we were promised a few hectares of land but from a politician so we don't know how that will turn out yet.
 
That's us, very briefly.
 
 
 
Well don't know how to do it ourselves but what do know what we need ( we're of course open to constructive criticism and suggestions )
    -DVC based/receiver files
    -fast transactions
    -transaction messaging
    -100,000,000,000 coins max ( ongoing discussion on max number of coins ) see https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4405546
    -no premine
    -reward halving yearly
    -fast diff adjustment
 
After the coin is released, we will set up a bounty NGOcoin donation address for a pool, blockexplorer, coinpayments intergration or whatever the community thinks we should do next.
 
We do know for sure though how we want to use this coin:
 
-spread NGOcoin to, of course, NGO's. Without premining, we'll rely on NGOcoin donations for this. We will be adding our own coins to that, so when the coins get to the chosen NGO they get there with extra value added. The NGO receiving the NGOcoin donation will also receive, and make wallets for a five or ten different coins. They will sill good coins, silly coins and coins with great potential.
-get established as a point of donations for hardware. We will then donate the hardware, based requests/projects/voting from other ngos, and we will probably at some point implement memorycoin voting for this (and everything it's done regarding NGOcoin)
-receive donations in any coin. It will be possible to choose if you want your donation named or anonymous, if you want it converted to NGOcoins, or if you want it sent as whatever coin you choose to donate to any ngo. We will contact your ngo and instruct them on how to receive your donation. This will be a very difficult task at the beginning, but I think the community will benefit
-make a website, translated in many languages, promoting crypto for ngo-s in general
-list regular folks who have good ideas and need exposure and/or funding
-implement local projects ( we're a local ngo ourselves)
-fund other local projects, create independent NGOcoin funded communities around the world
-travelling and instructing other NGOs on using cryptocurrency and on creating their own crypto currency (dream job)
 
We have many ideas to add to the table, and I think this is a good starting point.
 
Criticism and suggestions are welcomed.


ModernCoin will be our second project, we've started adding variouss coins to fund that too. We will be doing that with our own funding.
