  When I first thought of the implementation for Code Bounty it was too cool not to build. Working with Kevin and Ryan was a great experience and we all learned a lot about meteor, paypal, chrome extensions, and bitcoins.

  Way too late, after building it, I realized I liked the implementation but not the concept.

  Ryan and Kevin are busy with other things so I wanted to know if anybody is interested in taking over / having this project?

  It is open source here: https://github.com/codebounty/codebounty

  Love it - would be really interested in hearing your story (where'd it start? why give up the concept?). Might also want to list it at https://sideracket.com - it's not a marketplace in buy-sell terms, but it's a good place to put it up for adoption :)

  It is a chrome extension that makes it so you can add a monetary bounty to GitHub issues, inside of GitHub.

  It posts a comment on the issue with a dynamically generated image containing the bounty amount and the status of the bounty.
