I can see why Bitcoin would want to do that.
Why is it in the interest of people here to help out? The only detail that seems substantially interesting is the last bullet point.
There's also serious academic work already on cryptocurrencies. What do you think people here can offer beyond that?
Vitalik seems to think that LessWrongers could help out the cryptocurrency world in terms of philosophy, game theory, and computer science knowledge. I would agree, given that those seem to be the greatest strengths of the LessWrong community.
It was also nice to see one of the biggest names in an industry give credit to LessWrong in a blog post.
