BurnName: simple decentralized username registration

BTW, this is implemented as burn-name and burn-name-writer.

BurnName is a proposal for a simple and practical decentralized name registration system. In BurnName, users burn bitcoins to bid for names. The user who bids the most for a name owns that name, after a delay. BurnName uses the existing Bitcoin blockchain and network, and it can be used by various applications.

Example applications

• GitTorrent or a similar "decentralized GitHub"
• Domain name registration: your username doubles as a domain name
• Human-memorable Bitcoin addresses: map from your username to your Bitcoin address

# This pre-commit hook will prevent any commit to forbidden branches

# Put this file in your local repo, in the .git/hooks folder
# and make sure it is executable.
# The name of the file *must* be "pre-commit" for Git to pick it up.

System Design Cheatsheet

Picking the right architecture = Picking the right battles + Managing trade-offs

Basic Steps

1. Clarify and agree on the scope of the system

• User cases (description of sequences of events that, taken together, lead to a system doing something useful)
  • Who is going to use it?
  • How are they going to use it?

1. Gemfile

gem 'browserify-rails', '1.5.0' # until fix: https://github.com/browserify-rails/browserify-rails/issues/101
gem 'react-rails'

Browserify-rails allows to use browserify within assets pipeline. React-rails is here only to allow to use #react_component (and thus, prerendering).

Note that jquery-rails can be removed from Gemfile, the npm version of jquery and jquery-ujs will be used instead.
