Algocoin is a project that coined the term "Algorithmic Competition Offering(s)". An algorithmic competition offering allows people to compete and submit optimal solutions for a price sum in relation to solving a computationally-difficult, yet easy to verify the problem.[1] It is based on the concepts of verifiable computing and NP-completeness.[2] The project was started by Andrew Kamal as a predecessor to a project Andrew is building with his friend and research colleague Dominic.[3]
