You should take a look at Gridcoin. The community there is all about what Gridcoin does which is try to offset energy going into mining to also go towards research projects via BOINC. No one there switches back and forth between coins, even before we got into an exchange (and we were only added to one about a week ago). If you want to learn more you can also visit our temporary forums at Cryptocointalk. Unfortunately it doesn't have all the requirements you need, but there was no pre-mine and it's a coin aiming at a good cause. |

Looks like we need a better block explorer first as there needs to be a real-time "total coins in circulation" that they can pull the data from. Just giving everyone a heads up that, as of this morning, Gridcoin is finally on its first legitimate working exchange, www.c-cex.comIt has a very a smooth and responsive interface, and from my experience instant deposits, trade executions, and withdrawals. If anyone is interested in buying or selling Gridcoin, feel free to give the exchange a try! can anyone contact coinmarketcap.com? board on the train please |

@ derm and aysyr : thank you for the coins! they seem to have at least partially solved my mining issue. Once I had a positive GRC balance in my wallet several beacons were sent after about 40 mins. I had my gridcoin.conf file including cpupoolmining=true and the client sent out 6 beacons. Is this expected? I received 7 payments over the next 6-7 hours of between 8 to 34 GRC. Does that sound about right?
So then to test solo mining I removed cpupoolmining=true from the conf file and after running for 8 hours I've yet to receive anything. Does having started out cpupool mining prevent me from then solo mining? With the following stats: Boinc proc power: 67, thread count: 2 & Avg Daily Credits: 346, what can I reckon to wait for a payout (roughly)? Or have I missed something again?
AndrewP: it's easy to omit what seems obvious in a tutorial, besides I leaned a lot about the rest of the mechanics of Gridcoin while trying to figure out my specific problem.
Thanks.
Nthuse, You have to have cpumining=true in your gridcoin.conf at all times in order to get anything for CPU mining. There is no solo/pool mining for CPU (which is what I assume you're doing since you followed AndrewP's tutorial). Solo and pool mining is only if you're mining using cgminer or another "mining" software - otherwise known as mining with your GPU. So go ahead and add cpumining=true again and restart your client  |

I think the Gridcoin community has a fair chance of making it (at least from what I've seen so far
