@Graeme, idk how you feel about relocating, but have you thought any of working in New Zealand any? I went tdy there for work once, and some civilians along side their military tried their hardest to entice me. Apparently, there government was giving special incentives to foreign IT professionals, because their country was so short-handed.

@organisys SETL looks interesting, but I feel that a lot of the Blockchain and Cryptocurrency startups are solutions looking for a problem. Adi Shamir, the cryptographer who's the S in RSA, wrote, "Yet to see a use-case for blockchain that can't be solved with an existing simpler technology."
I agree with him.
@UnTucked I'm probably tied into Australia until September or October. This is because my girlfriend is studying in Melbourne until then, and I'm wanting to apply for Australian citizenship in about six weeks, and that'll take five or six months to come through.
New Zealand is an option. I've got residency rights from holding Aussie PR (and hopefully citizenship soon), and my girlfriend should be able to get NZ PR fairly easily.
The trouble is that Auckland has the same problem as Sydney and Melbourne: a lot of money from local and foreign investors has been poured into property, making it insanely expensive. The average house price in Sydney is just under $1.2 million ($930K US), in Melbourne it's $900K ($700K US), and in Auckland it's $1 million ($730K US).
If you consider that the median in the Bay Area, which is reputed to be completely unaffordable without a tech company salary, is $825K, you get an idea of what it's like…

Julian Assange is someone who's gone from hero to zero by his own hand.
He's been holed up in the Ecuadorian embassy since 2012, due to Swedish charges. These have now been dropped, or expired, but he still faces arrest by the British police for violating his bail conditions.
His QC brought an appeal, and the judge is rather scathing of Assange in his judgment. :o
