RE: What if... someone DDOS'd the whitelisted BOINC servers for a while?
Solving missing projects and unfair distribution
A solution to the problem that if a project on the whitelist goes down is easy. Today when a project goes down the rewards are redistributed evenly over the remaining projects on the whitelist. I assume this is one of the things that you are reacting over.
A solution to this to never redistribute as long as the project is on the whitelist. This would mean that none would get an unfair advantage if they they where down temporarily or missing in the statistical superblock.
It's an easy solution to the problem and I know the very good developers we have are working on looking over the way the NN works.
Another solution is the 'grey-list', a project goes down for a couple days & it is provided a grace period before being removed from the whitelist, allowing users who are 'owed' GRC some additional time to stake whilst no further rewards are allocated during the downtime.
