RE: Gridcoin Staking - 3360 GRC is not enough
you seem to have a capable computer, why don't you get a CPID and work? there are a ton of interesting problems you can solve.

On this laptop I'm working, but I'm running BOINC on 2 other laptops (they are less powerful, but still it's better to put them in use)
In that case, get a CPID to your wallet. You do not have to crunch on your work laptop, just have one of the projects attached.
You are missing whet you could be earning.
convert INVESTOR wallet to CPID wallet
As I understand this is not accurate: You have to install BOINC on your laptop with the GRIDCOIN WALLET installed and attach to all Projects you are crunching, so all Projects will be recognized by GRIDCOIN.
Thanks, I have this laptop attached to Boinc, but I was running Boinc on it only in the beginning. I will add all the projects to it, will see if this helps.
So I installed Boinc, selected all the projects which I ever used for this laptop, synchronized with Grcpool. But this didn' add magnitude in grcpool (it would if I would run Boinc on this laptop), and in the wallet (I restarted it) it is still written Investor for Project and CPID
You will not be able to get the magnitude you had on grcpool, since it's not your CPID.
You can however, sign up to projects with your own details and receive your own CPID. Then you can receive the research rewards directly under your name.
To get rewarded for all your projects you need to run the wallet + Boinc with all attached projects that you want to receive rewards for. These projects can be idle on your machine, as long as it fetches the stats.
Then you run Boinc on as many machines as you like under your own CPID.
Thanks a lot for explanation! However on the Mac where I have wallet open I can't run Boinc as it is harder to work with it. So I'll just keep the things as they are going now.
You do not have to RUN it there. I myself would not run boinc on macbook. You just have to have installed and attached there (no new tasks).
Thanks, will try this
