Why would you award a US dollar amount of bitcoin? The point is to adopt bitcoin as it's own entity. Awards should be 10, 5, and 3 bitcoin. Or if you like big numbers call it 10 million satoshi, 5 million satoshi, 3 million satoshi ?
Hey all, I'm a student who is looking to join a team for the [BitHack Hackathon]( http://bithackathon.com/ ) - are any groups out there looking for someone to help with team coordination, app testing, user experience, etc.? My background is not technical in nature, but I've found that I always find a way to contribute in hackathons. I'm not in it for the money (although that does sound very nice) as much as I am for…

From the rules: > Coinbase must be the sole bitcoin payment method included in the app. So, is it a hackathon to make something cool with bitcoin, or to make something cool with Coinbase? Anything anyone does to make bitcoin bigger, better, and more mainstream, will benefit Coinbase in the long run. So it might be a bit short-sighted to restrict this unless there is a really good reason.
