Here are some projects that would help JoinMarket.

Sorted by difficulty and time required, within each catagory sorted from most important to least important.

Note that this difficulty is my own estimate which will be based on my skills and experience. Easy and hard are relative terms, it's actually all quite easy.

Non-Programming

  1. Educate yourself about JoinMarket. Read all the written posts on the bitcointalk thread, subreddit and github issue tracker. Ask questions.

  2. Create a logo to represent JoinMarket. Probably something along the lines of two hands shaking as if to suggest a deal being made, with the bitcoin logo somehow merging and splitting to allude to coinjoin

  3. People trust systems more if they think they know how it works. If you're good with graphics, you can help the project by creating an infographic for how it all works. For example how coinjoin transactions in the joinmarket software are communicated, created, checked and signed.
