The Bankwatch

Tracking the evolution of financial institutions

BarCamp / BarCampBank

 Chris introduced this to me today, so thanks for that.  I knew about BarCamp, but BarCampBank! Who would have thought. 

This page is dedicated to any project related to imagine the future of a bank for BarCamp and any other interesting disruptions related to money

In any event, its just getting going, and I really like the concept.

Mission Statement :  (being peer reviewed)

  • thinktank about the future of the bank (PeerInvest, WikiVenture, ethics, reputation, open-process and money, transparency, identity, KarmaInitiative karma-trusting….)
  • promote and drive innovation on free software/culture/community projects
    • detect innovative projects via BarCamp international networking
    • select them via an OpenProcess of community-decision-making
    • seed-money from a piggy-bank dedicated to BarCamp projects (from 30K USD to 100K USD)

So I am in, and will see where this goes.
