I don't think you will receive the best answers here. The Bitcointalk Altcoin section is currently the best place for such announcements. I believe there is room for a better board/list for new 2.0 projects. Bitcoin dev is not very welcoming to discussions/debates/projects which go beyond digital cash systems (assets, markets, etc.), as it is very focused on the core problems which are under-funded. Anyone who wants to build a better venue for 2.0 projects feel free to contact me. This could be a mailing list or an upgraded message board. Most such boards are project/currency specific, but there is one missing for announcements. In terms of markets on top of blockchains, I have sent a private email.

Hi Richard,

its great that people with = a lot of experience in financial markets take interest in these topics. I d= on't think you will receive the best answers here. The Bitcointalk Altc= oin section is currently the best place for such announcements. I believe t= here is room for a better board/list for new 2.0 projects. Bitcoin dev is n= ot very welcoming to discussions/debates/projects which go beyond digital c= ash systems (assets, markets, etc.), as it is very focused on the core prob= lems which are under-funded.

Anyone who wants to b= uild a better venue for 2.0 projects feel free to contact me. This could be= a mailing list or an upgraded message board. Most such boards are project/= currency specific, but there is one missing for announcements.=C2=A0

Why not fund Core development?

We are looking for participants in a=20 Bitcoin related competition: the aim is to build a trading platform=20 (initially for foreign exchange, other assets will follow) which lets=20 participants settle their trades through the blockchain via coloured coins. To facilitate a quicker trade=20 reconciliation, the use of a sidechain is a suggestion but by no means a requirement. There will be an online briefing event today where we will outline the requirements in more detail, though much of it we have posted on our website www.lykkex.com=C2=A0.=C2=A0

As we want this to be a community driven=20 effort rather than something turning into a proprietary technology, all=20 contributions will be made available under a MIT license on Github.=C2=A0

I look forward to answering your questions a= t the online briefing event or over email,

Thank you and kind regards,
Richard Olsen
