You can also get ripples by connecting boinc to your world community grid account.

PS. Can you connect GRC to WCG now, to earn XRP as well as GRC?

Look up Gridcoin.


The website is only half-operational. Is this still working?

Yes. Look in the announcement section for the thread. People still trade this coin too.

Girdcoin was a nice attempt but only rewards you for parallel boinc operation.  A true research coin would be integrating the the unit of research work as the proof of work and getting rewarded for that.
