I hope that GRC will one day rise to some level of significance but tbh if not in a pandemic, when would it have a chance?
I am happy crunching with gridcoin and maybe in 5-10 years I'll be able to buy a meal from my rewards.
Until then I hope that some people who are good at marketing will pay attention to Gridcoin and maybe can get it some more attention.
Honestly I thought that when this whole challenge of who helps out the most crunching against Covid thing came out that Gridcoin would experience a boom...But no, not really. I think we just need more people who are willing to put in the initial "risk" over a few years to crunch, then we need trading volume so the coin gets some attention and last but not least, to get the trading volume we need a reason to trade the coin. Right now, in my eyes there's no real reason to trade the coin other than holding it...
