RE: Gridcoin's mandatory team requirement: Should it stay or should it go?
Fundamentally I believe Gridcoin should act as an incentive for people to do BOINC work. The more people it reaches the bigger incentive it has, the network effect increasing its value and utility, a feedback loop as it were.
It seems we may need a new and completely non-BOINC based team of some description, you must join that team to earn Gridcoin, but you can be a member of any BOINC team you like, so you can keep your stats. This super-team must have some kind of democratic leadership.
Surely the neural network could be this team? It's a list of verified CPIDs, if we threw a team id column in there we could filter stats by teams or project-rain on teams. I'm not sure about leadership, but democracy could be facilitated via the inbuilt voting mechanism.
We could potentially nominate delegates for each BOINC team that's tracked in the neural network & create some kind of BOINC crypto-consortium?
Yeah the thought crossed my mind that the NN was close to what I was suggesting but I didnt want to be too prescriptive.
Im not sure what type of democracy would work best, but for example if you wanted to ban a CPID for cheating then it should require some kind of multi-party consensus.
