You are potential winner so far i knew about Gridcoin, but i never done allot research, what more important you can tell about Gridcoin, Darth?

Like any other cryptocurrency, you can just buy some Gridcoin and wait for the value to go up (and even earn a little interest via proof of stake) but the fun for me is in "mining" it. Instead of burning CPU cycles to mine the currency directly, you participate in various BOINC projects and are rewarded for the work your computers do.

BOINC started with just seti@home many years ago. seti@home is a project that searches radio telescope data for extraterrestrial signals. Now there are dozens of projects. My favorites are seti@home, einstein@home which searches for gravitational waves to identify pulsars, and rosetta@home which simulates protein folding to help find disease cures. However, there are many others.

Those interested can google for more info or go to https://gridcoin.us/ but the "mining" process goes something like this: 1) download and install BOINC, 2) during setup, select the projects you are interested in 3) For the project you select, join the Gridcoin team 4) download and install the gridcoin client, entering the appropriate info.

There is no reason for anyone who already uses BOINC not to participate, and if you don't use BOINC already it's a good excuse to look into volunteer computing.

10$ reserved for you as soon as i power down.

I can chose more winners.

ill send u some gridcoin man just email me [email protected]
I love gridcoin because you can do Seti@home like with Eobot and evenpay for cloud mining to Help Look for Aliens! And ypu actually recieve a little grid coin for helping! its so cool u canjust do the whole folding or seti att home and earn grid coin doing something cool!

but what woudl be really coool if if it told you fi your computer wa sthe one that folded the protein tat they needed to cure cancer,, or that Your computer running teh seti@home grid coin program was able to tell you if Your computer was the one to solve the block that ened up discovering Aliens

I think you do actually get told if your computer discovers something. It isn't automatic but you will get an e-mail from the people running the project. I can't speak for every single project but I know einstein@home credits you if your computer discovers a new pulsar, seti@home has stated they will credit you if they find something. I think most projects are this way.
