Gridcoin Community Classroom #009

---

Need some $GRC to get your wallet going? We will be giving away 5 FREE GRC to anyone that needs it, up to 100 GRC per hangout!

Free Gridcoins are provided by the other members of the hangout as a kind gesture from the community.

What is Gridcoin?

Gridcoin securely rewards BOINC computation on top of Proof of Stake. Reward allocation is distributed, not centralized unlike other distributed computing related cryptocurrencies.

This weekend, we will be discussing what the BOINC projects do, the difference between a CPU and GPU work unit, and the Gridcoin credit system.

Live voice support will commence afterwards. New and old users alike are encouraged to join. :)
