RE: World Community Grid
Have no fear! WCG recently picked up 3 (if I'm remembering correctly... I can't find the news article) new projects. I think one or two, if not all three, have to do with climate change. Here's a forum

RE: The Gridcoin Fireside #6 - Gridcoin 4.0.3.0: The Scraper. This one is kind of a big deal.
Sorry for necro-post, but collusion is about trust! haha I hear what you're saying. With 5 scraper nodes we are trusting that those 5... actually just 3 of them... will not collude. I understand the need

There is a difference between "decentralize everything" and "this is probably not decentralized enough". Having a core mechanism that can be easily corrupted with minimal effort or

For many people, myself included, downtime is not a fear. Collusion is the fear. As you state in the recording, this is blockchain. The rule is "trust no node". So if we must trust for now, which

I think you hit some hot topics for where I also hope this mechanism goes. More scrapers Some sort of rotation system based on some variables like location, OS, hardware, etc. Transparency and verified

Technically yes, 20% is dangerously low, but: Our network has demonstrated, for the size that it is, that its current whales seem to manifest the community will, and that there is a growing group of core

RE: Gridcoin New Feature; Side-Staking (and what I am doing with it!)
I might be misunderstanding something. I'm thinking from the mindset of a burn wallet being pretty much the same as a wallet someone owns but forgot the key to access the balance. So if there's a wallet

RE: Gridcoin New Feature; Side-Staking (and what I am doing with it!)
If I send GRC to a wallet to which there is no key they are burned. If I set that wallet up so it is staking, it would stake the rewards into itself and any staking rewards would also be burned. If I set

Yeah essentially stuff like that and the donate4life model PINK uses that burns the donated coins in a hot wallet and sends the staking rewards of that wallet to the project seeking funding

Having a feed into a tight-knit platform like discord is different than a public post. I think we really have to nail down the release process, particularly as though we were someone from the outside looking

RE: Pre-poll Discussion: Poll Definitions
WRT observations: I see the same. Maybe we should look into some solutions to these. Something like freezing AVW at the start of a poll for that poll. For the time being I think AVW still provides a better

RE: Pre-poll Discussion: Poll Definitions
AVW is the total voting weight on the network which is, when boiled down, coin weight + magnitude magnitude weight. I might be missing something but I think it's vote weight.

The only sane markets are the markets of the sciences. Not easy to sell an H to an O if demand is already met =p
