Hi and thanks for this naive and very elegant proof of concept. How much work do you think is needed to go from this POC to a fully working bitcoin implementation ? Thanks !

@pvdyck A Bitcoin implementation is basically when you take a bitcoin source: github.com/bitcoin and change parts of it. This (Naivecoin) is basically the most simple cryptocurrency and is not ready for distribution, because it is totally not user-friendly and insecure. You could make it a working cryptocurrency, but it would take a lot of work and time.
