RE: Gridcoin poll: Impact to GRC price if team requirement is lifted? (vote until July 25)

It will display an error message, but you still should get the invite via mail and be able to join.

RE: Thoughts on GRC [001] – Introduction

I'm aware of that :) I'll write another article on BOINC users only and possible strategies to make GRC more interesting for them. I still need to talk to some people first before I can start to write

Our current Home Page contains this information, with links to everything you asked for. Displaying it all on one page would be impossible to navigate. Further details are provided in your BOINC client,

RE: Thoughts on GRC [002] – How the user experience could be improved (1)

I don’t think BOINC/GRC's main motivation should be mining GRC for profit and I also don’t think it would be healthy for the relationship long-term. "But that is literally the entire purpose of GRC

"Any coin that requires work, whether POW or DPOR will be affected by power prices and GPU availability. It is not the job of the network to subsidise based on this differentiating feature."

RE: Thoughts on GRC [002] – How the user experience could be improved (1)

Thank you for your reply. I'll split up my responses for less confusion. I would like to start with the suggestions a) - d) since there seems to be a massive confusion about them. I will not edit the main

RE: Thoughts on GRC [001] – Introduction

I agree with you: cashing out is not the only option and re-investing is even better because it has a long-term positive effect ont the BOINC/GRC symbiosis. When looking at user motivation it is far more

GRC has some great long-term potential. I hope we'll make the right choices within the next months to become more relevant within crypto.

RE: Thoughts on GRC [002] – How the user experience could be improved (1)

Hi there :) I think it's a good choice to use old systems for BOINC/GRC instead of throwing them away if they are still functioning properly. In general, we should try to use products as long as possible

RE: outreach: giving Wikimedia users Gridcoins for their activity?

"Wikipedia and its famousness is worth the flaws" I strongly disagree on this one. You are talking about "target potential" as if we are about to conquer a new market. I'm not sure

RE: outreach: giving Wikimedia users Gridcoins for their activity?

I'm not 100% convinced about paying Wikipedia editors with GRC. I like the core concept about this idea but I feel there are too many aspects that need to be considered to avoid exploit/abuse of such a

RE: Choosing the Best Operating System

CyanogenMod is no longer in development; the new project is called LineageOS. Also, there is an Android OS for PC called Remix OS (for everyone out there who wants to check out some experimental stuff).
