19+The Urbit Bitcoin Wallet has been integrated into the core distribution, and its
20+maintenance is now passing back to the community via the Urbit Foundation.
22+Our goal is to maintain this product at a high level of usability and also add
23+significant features to it over time. We want usage to become ubiquitous and
24+easy within Urbit, while integrating without outside wallets/signing devices and
25+internal applications.
27+If you have strong development skills and are looking to make an impact with
28+your Urbit development, this is the project to be on. We'll likely recruit more

33+The below is a non-exhaustive list of the types of work we will need:
35+* hardware wallet support
36+* progress meters for wallet scanning
37+* performance improvements for Bitcoin providers
39+* shoe CLI interface for terminal usage in Urbit
40+* general maintenance as bugs arise

47+* Hoon experience (for backend maintenance and improvement)
49+Having both skills is great.
53+- at least 10 hours/week
55+- weekly check-in meeting with `~timluc-miptev` (Technical Director at Urbit Foundation)
59+* 1 star per month initially (assuming ~10 hours/week part-time)
60+* more stars can be negotiated if the developer has greater availability and can
