Devcoin (DVC)

Devcoin (DVC) is an ethically inspired cryptocurrency created in 2011 to support open-source programmers and writers worldwide. It is one of the longest-running blockchain-based digital currencies. Users can merge mine Devcoins with Bitcoin or purchase them on various exchanges. By buying Devcoins, individuals can help fund developers and contribute to producing open-source software, books, music, art, and movies.

The Devcoin Foundation, a non-profit organization, supports software and hardware developers, musicians, painters, graphic artists, and filmmakers through the Software Freedom Conservancy. Ninety percent of Devcoin’s generation goes to open-source projects, providing bounties for accomplishments and regular payments to active developers. Developers earn Devcoins by working on projects, while administrators earn them by assisting in administrating the Devcoin project.

Devcoin has an expanding ecosystem with multiple services that accept both DVC coin (a Bitcoin fork) and DVC token (a Stellar DEX). Additionally, Devcoin has a visionary goal of funding a massive bounty to develop an open-source one-seater spacecraft that can exit and enter the Earth’s atmosphere once its market capitalization reaches a certain point. Those interested in supporting easier access to space for humanity can contribute to this cause by supporting Devcoin.
