Just read the etherium Hello World. Do I get this right?
A "smart contract" you write is basically a OOP class for a bot. You compile it at your local machine.
You must pay (e.g. ether on the etherium blockchain) to do something on (write information to) a (Turing complete) blockchain (writing down a transaction is a special case of doing something).
So uploading an instance of your class ("smart contract") costs some amount, and if you use it to change something on the blockchain you again pay. (Hello world just prints something to the standard output and so it's free service once the contract is up).
Correct?
bump, interesting question

Thanks.
Also, I'm wondering if there's a cool coding project out there. What would you guys be interested in regarding coins and blockchain? For now, I'm just thinking about taking the price data and evaluating it one way or the other.
I do Bayesian inference for my job, although not in finance.
What would be a information service/website that you'd be interested in and that doesn't really exist yet. What do you need, /biz?/

I'm working on a Python scripting tool that loads prices and detects if something is happening. Nice and good, and then you can store and work on the data at home, but for the most part graphic tools exist and this market is so volatile that nobody would have good reason to respect my expectations. Nevermind the fact that "disruptive" product and even coins arise every day.
There are indeed already api's e.g. for Kraken in many languages

No one here gives a fuck. They just want to get rich quick

Try on /g/, we are greedy here, not coders. Godspeed son.

I get that.
But there are of course also tools and services (for trading) you guys would like to see that can accessed from some website.

Just spent 15 minutes fucking hypnotized by this.
Also, why do we still make kids write a bubble sorting algorithm in undergrad when it clearly eats the ass out of a dead rhinoceros?
