Here is an excellent PPD/$/watt gpu comparison:

Greetings,
is there some sort of PPD/FLDC calculator/chart that makes it possible to determine the amount of FLDC daily/monthly payments?
Thanks.

So you guys definitely do not know what created September price hike?

We have some thoughts, but nothing is definite. As far as anyone knows, it could be the US government using confiscated bitcoins to help boost participation in DCN research they seed through the NIH and NSF. Pande Lab and Folding@home receive NIH and NSF funding, while BOINC no longer does, but many of its underlying projects do. If you’ve notice, all three science coins (CURE, FLDC and GRC) got a significant boost, so whomever it is, they are NOT playing favorites.

I'm sure every coin has approached people like Mark Cuban and other members of the Shark Tank ... could be one of them. Cuban doesn't believe in bitcoin, but appreciates "the blockchain".

Ummm ... Paul Allen?

It's anyone's guess really :-)



Thanks for thorough reply.
Quite interesting that all three coins surged in same time-frame.
That makes theories about "pump and dump" worthless.
BTW, I am folding away, for almost ten years now.
I will try to convince GPU miners on local forum to switch to Cure.
What happened to http://1.curecoinmirror.com/calculatordemo.html?
It would help a lot in convincing them.

Dr Vijay Pande (founder of leader of folding@home) is keeping busy. Now Andreessen Horowitz is pretty keen on bitcoin and a general interest in all cool digital items (like f@h). The recent price spike that left people baffled... seems like it spiked oddly a few times recently. Since its still profitable even though the price is not holding the peak of what it just hit, team curecoin is growing very fast! At this pace we will break our own world record we hold on the folding@home network. So .. speculation.. once the spike in folders starts to slow down or even out - another price spike from interested parties could happen, making sure to keep the folders (miners) happy and in the green. Again just some fun with speculation. It could be any number of entities that created the price spike.

So you guys definitely do not know what created September price hike?
I myself have no idea how is the monetization of Curecoin possible in the first place. I thought that the value of Curecoin comes from people who buy Curecoin for $$$ and then donate them to Curecoin project.
Is that correct?
I understand why Bitcoin for example can be monetized: people buy Bitcoin for $$$ and use them to buy stuff on Darknet or pay cryptoware ransoms. And there are chinese billionares who need to move their billions out of the country so they buy Bitcoins in China and exchange them for dollars out of China. So suddenly bits of ones and zeros called Bitcoins have monetary value.
I understand that altcoins like Ethereum/Libry/Monero have some specific features that make people buy them instead Bitcoin.
But who buys Cure for $$$? Who wants Cure? How is it possible it can be exchanged for Bitcoins and then those Bitcoins exchanged for $$$?
Can somebody elaborate because it boggles my mind.

Is there some method to decrease the temp of the GPU in the Folding@Home? Besides messing with voltage of the card, because that doesn't work for me.

Lower power limit. That will decrease the GPU clock supposedly without major impact on PPD.

I guess you can excange them for BTC :-)

Anyway, here is my question:
Do I need Counterparty wallet or can I simply use the Poloniex address, provided that I use only "_FLDC_" and not "_ALL_" as part of my F@H username?
Thanks!
Only Counterwallet.

Well not exactly, since I just received two payments to my blockchain.info account that I used for FLDC before switching to Counterwallet.
Whats confusing me is that I was not using _ALL_ as part of  my folding username, so how come I got two payments today? I guess one of them is for MAGICFLDC?
And how come I got them AT ALL since Xandry claims that "Only Counterwallet" can be used?

I still don't get what you can use FLDC for  Roll Eyes
