Bitcoin Foundation: "Put down the hype and focus on developing the core code

In recent days, the Bitcoin Foundation has announced that it will put down its task of advertising, education, and advocacy for public policy, devoting its primary effort to the development of core code-a decision that was conducted three times before the foundation heard the opinions of members both inside and outside the foundation.

As it turns out, people still want the foundation to focus on the development of Bitcoin's core code.

"Initially, the foundation almost took all the jobs: public policy initiatives, education outreach, core code development ... Why are you so tired? Because nobody else did it before. But thankfully, we've come a long way, and the Bitcoin ecosystem is maturing-just like any start-up-and now we're going to take off our hats and do something more professional. ”

The foundation says it will launch educational talks to attract more developers to the Bitcoin core generation, and of course the foundation will come up with more money and resources.

"We're going to put aside the irrelevant core code and prepare (at least) to recruit a full-time developer in a few months." At the beginning of 2015, there were at least 4 developer training and certification seminars worldwide. ”

It is reported that three surveys are mainly concentrated in the Bitcoin Foundation members-including enterprises, individuals (author Press: Just become a lifetime member of the Foundation, welcome comrades to come to me to play, micro-letter xtw1009. Please indicate the Organization/project + name)--and the general public. The individual members who participated in the research were mainly from Europe and America. At present, 44% of individual members of the Bitcoin Foundation say: They want the organization to be more focused on core code development--106 support for 230 participants. 56% of community members support training activities.

In addition, 52% of individual members said: supporting the development of Bitcoin open source technology--so, core code is the primary task of the organization. Community members and enterprise members in turn have 56%, 44% support the development of core code.
