Hey all,
StarkWare has announced a $1 million bounty for compelling arguments either
in favor of or against the activation of OP_CAT. This bounty is overseen by
a committee which includes the following members:
-
Andrew Poelstra (Chair) - Blockstream
-
Victor Kolobov (Secretary General) - StarkWare
-
Avihu Levy - StarkWare
-
Clara Shinkleman - Chaincode
-
Ethan Heilman - BastionZero
-
Louis Guthman - StarkWare
-
Olaoluwa Osuntokun - Lightning Labs
-
Robin Linus - ZeroSync
-
Tadge Dryja
The bounty is intended to gather well-reasoned arguments from the
community, either supporting or opposing the activation of OP_CAT. Topics
of interest include but are not limited to: the security implications of
OP_CAT activation on Bitcoin, OP_CAT-based computing and locking script
logic on Bitcoin, applications and protocols utilizing OP_CAT on Bitcoin,
and general research related to OP_CAT and its impact.
Please apply here <https://starkware.co/submission-proposals/>!

@Admin
I am reporting this thread as spam. "Posts must concern development of
bitcoin protocol and be technical or academic (patches, PRs, BIPs, academic
papers)."

While I welcome the effort, its worth pointing out that bounties like this have a very long history
of generating no interesting results because people who might otherwise generate interesting results
are rarely motivated by bounties.
