21:07 < amiller__> making some progress on the bitcoin for researchers front
21:07 < amiller__> well more to the point, i can report that other people are making progress
21:08 < amiller__> arvin narayan an assistant prof at princeton is interested in working openly on bitcoin things, and pointed out that it's strange there's no tutorial or survey for researchers https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OGLD6YssxABjvcIdGMqXW-EkZnv6g52iLSUdJrxldJg/edit
21:09 < amiller__> matthew green is also an assistant prof in cryptography and applied security and has sort of started a project he views as a "planetlab for bitcoin" but is basically a similar concept as "scamcoin"
21:09 < petertodd> amiller__: I've got someone interested in a tutorial/survey you can try it out on BTW.
21:09 < amiller__> the zerocoin guy
21:10 < petertodd> amiller__: Not a perfect test, because they know me and I've talked to them about Bitcoin before, but the guy admitted the other day that he still didn't understand enough about mining to understand some statistics questions I was asking.
