20,000 I0C Client Upgrade Bounty

We need to move forward on the next version of the i0coin client.  It will bring added security and more potential for developing the i0coin economy.  I'm putting up a 20,000 I0C bounty for this effort with the following criteria to claim the bounty.

1.  Update must bring client up to Bitcoin version 0.9.3 (or later)
2.  OP_RETURN must be set to 80 bytes (to allow financial platform development)
3.  Merge mining must be operational
4.  At least one major merge mining pool must start using client (to prove it works)
5.  Maintain the memory streamlining features of i0coin version 0.8.x to keep memory usage to a minimum

Yes, let's hope it continues rising.

i0coin has risen 750% in two months.  It just poked it's head above $300K market cap today.

We're back up.  I didn't get much feed back from the web host other than there was a spamming issue.  I know it wasn't coming from us.  We did have an issue on the wiki last week so I made it so only admins can update for now.

Meanwhile you can still download clients from the dev site ( http://i0coin.snel.it/ ) if you're new to i0coin.

So far so good.  izerocoin.org has been back up for several days with no problems.  I'll wait a bit longer to put the forum and wiki back online.  Those were the source of the spam.  I need to better lock them down.  It's more important to keep the main site up for now. 

I've managed to get I0C added to the voting list on Bter.com:

https://bter.com/voting

It's been erroneously added as '10C' not 'I0C', in case you can't find it. I have asked them to change this.

If you're interested please vote it up so that it will be added to their exchange.

It's about time.

So far no one apart from me voted for it on Bter! Please go vote if you are interested. I for one want more places than just Vircurex to trade this currency.

Also the price is going up still... any theories?

Cryptoblox I0coin block explorer is operational again.  It was down for a week or two.
