Why an open source community is important

MicroBitcoin was born to inherit the original vision of Satoshi Nakamoto. Satoshi Nakamoto had a will to make the world transparent and decentralized. We think it should not only remain as a motto or be confined to the digital world, but it should be realized in the world where real people are living. So MBCians take effort not only to open the source code of MicroBitcoin but also to maintain the community for everyone to be able to join. MBCians believe that only transparent and decentralized processes can bring about the true real transparent and decentralized world. It is the reason why we think an open source community is so important.
An open source project means that anybody can view, use, modify, distribute, and participate in the project.
