I think my project is a bit too early to prove itself yet. When I get my full block-chain downloader/validator working I think it will create much more interest.

voting will stop in 3h 45min


For doing this regularly I would like the voting period to start on the 1st of the month. Should we do two quick ones to catch up? Or would be enough to skip October and start the next vote on the 1st of November (for BPM November 2012).

Very nice man. Casted my vote.
thanks. I just stole Bitboy's original button design, though  Wink

Python is reeeeaaaaallllly sloooooooow on OSX for some reason. It's not so bad on Linux or Windows as I've experienced. Maybe it's just my Mac.

To me it is not quite clear what the advantage is of it being in c99. Embedded systems?

Possibly on embedded systems if you can get dynamic allocation to work and implement some of the standard library.

C is one of the most popular languages out there and I like coding with C which is why I'm using it.

I like it, too, but I like Python even better Wink

I'm beginning to feel sorry for that poor chap who develops cbitcoin at only 10% in last place.  Grin

Are the rules too strict? Projects need to be public, nonprofit and open for everyone to join.

blockviewer for example is a nice project, too. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/announce-blockviewercom-visualize-the-bitcoin-block-chain-103609

Other projects that come to mind:

http://code.google.com/p/bitcoinspinner/
http://code.google.com/p/bccapi/
http://code.google.com/p/bitcoin-wallet/
armory
electrum
multibit

bitcoin100


I applaud the efforts laid out on this thread, but please don't waste your vote on Bitcoin100 for this particular endeavor because we don't deserve a single vote at this time.

~Bruno~


I was just brainstorming and nobody nominated it. Maybe next time...
edit: the website looks very professional!

Will try to produce a banner tomorrow.

Well I don't know how relevant Open Transactions is yet... We still need to develop it to a more stable state.
However if any developers want to come and sail out onto the brave new waters of Open Transactions.  You are welcome to hang out in #opentransactions on Freenode.net

aka... it would be really cool to have some more developers! Smiley  Our API is coming along leaps and bounds.  Cheesy Cheesy

To be the Bitcoin Project of the Month it does not have to be finished. BPM is meant to draw attention to interesting projects with potential to help realize them.   Smiley

You've omitted the Open-Transactions project page link in your OP for some reason ...

https://github.com/FellowTraveler/Open-Transactions

(it wasn't that difficult to find btw.)


So it is a purposeful omission?

If you don't want Open-Transactions on the list, leave it off, it is your contest after all. But please don't be petty about it, it is beneath you Phelix.

Well I have an updated description: https://github.com/MatthewLM/cbitcoin/

cbitcoin is a bitcoin library written in standard C99. It is currently in alpha-stage and should only be used experimentally. The purpose of the library is to make it easier for developers to create bitcoin applications and the library should be versatile enough to be used in many bitcoin projects. It is not a client library, rather it provides the basic building blocks of the bitcoin protocol.

The features includes:

Bitcoin message structures including serailisation and deserialisation functions.
A bitcoin script interpreter.
Functions for building and verifying merkle trees.
Basic functions which can be used in various validation models (full nodes, pruning nodes, SPV nodes or whatever).
Asynchronous networking code whcih provides a simple interface to the bitcoin network for sending and receiving messages.
A network address manager
Automatic bitcoin handshakes.
Automatic peer discovery.
Automatic pings.
Base-58 bitcoin address encoding.
Simple reference counting memory management.
Doxygen documentation and well-documented source code.
Purely standard C99 with weakly linked function prototypes for cryptography, PRNG and network dependencies.
Implementations of the dependencies using libevent and openssl.

I contacted thallium205 and it turns out blockviewer is public and nonprofit. Glad to have blockviewer as the next nominee.

Blockviewer is a strong argument to use "coin control". Sounds like thallium is going to pull more info out of the chain and even make it pretty. Wink

There are definitely some major changes coming - basically its going to look completely different.  I also ran out of space on my build server so its really delayed at the moment too - I feel its just really not yet polished enough for all this attention but oh well.  Thanks for nominating it!
