The projects listed in the "projects console" are the ones you can cpu mine, the ones where you get max 150 grc per day just for donating computational power, not hashing. I have a question. Am I right in assuming that the only way GRC's client takes your daily credits into consideration is if you're using one of the 5 projects listed in the console? Compatibility with worldcommunitygrid would be great, too. I was initially using WCG until the daily credit consideration came into play, and would like to go back to using this. If I'm reading into this right, WCG will only work if either:
A) You use WCG in addition to other projects listed in order to get full 100% credit for mined blocks. B) Use WCG but only receive 50% credit for mined blocks, since the only thing the GRC client will see is your CPU/Memory utilization.
Maybe I'm missing something here, but if I'm not, then I think this should be addressed and modified to (at the very least) include WCG, but even more preferable to me would be the ability to choose at least from the majority of the projects, if not all of them. I like all of the Boinc projects and realize they're all for good causes, but I would kind of prefer to use my boinc power for at least 2 or 3 other projects that are not currently supported. As far as WCG goes, it seems like a large majority of Boinc users use WCG, so I think this would help GRC appeal to more Boinc users.

I do rosetta@home, you should try that. What kind of cpu do you have? thanks for the advice. The 150 grc don't depend on the power of my cpu?

Do cpu mining you can get 150 grc per day just for donating to Boinc, no hashing. Read the cpu mining guide: https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/1922-cpu-mining-tutorialtopic/I think we should create a Gridcoin marketplace and everyone can post what they can do and how much they want to charge for it. I offer high quality english-german translation for gridcoin, if anybody is interested, just pm me.
I see it the same. Gridcoin maybe is the only virtual coin with some usage. I waited month bevore for something like this to achieve, and I am happy your network is growing despite all this technical difficulties ...
btw: I'd like to mine, but all my stupid writing/music/video-machines reach together at best 30kh ... any use in it?

+1 for Gridcoin I would say gridcoin because of the use of boinc. All that power can really do some good. Also darkcoin.

+1. The services that accept Gridcoin part is really important. If everyone in the community can provide some kind of service and accept Gridcoin, then that is the perfect way to get people to know Gridcoin and what it is all about. And yea one more thing : Hold your coins till atleast $10-15 (yea I know it will be too tempting to sell before that especially for early miners but if something like Vertcoin can go up to $8 then we can surely do way better considering the fact we are helping society too and not just producing hot air like other coins ). Best of luck guys and resist the urge to sell for as long as you can Lets do this. 10-15$ for 1GRC? ? for now, 1GRC = 0,0536$..... I really think we will do better than $10-$15. IMHO Gridcoin is more innovative and more beneficial than any other alt-coin currently in existence, to include Litecoin which is currently worth ~$20... If Litecoin can reach $20 when it offered nothing new from Bitcoin other than a cpu-friendly algorithm (which is the same algorithm being used by Gridcoin and many other alts) then gridcoin should easily surpass $20 simply based on the fact that it is one of the VERY few alt-coins to be truly different from it's counterparts/competitors. Gridcoin is not a simple cut+paste clone, there is a LOT of new custom code that has been added to this client and it rewards you for making contributions that benefit humanity in many different areas of science, health and technology. I also believe that with the Scrypt-sleep algorithm Gridcoin has the single most fair and even distribution system which is REALLY important to the success of an alt-coin. The point of the coin is to reward those who contribute the most to the research projects and the client does EXACTLY that since the more processing power you contribute to the projects the better your chance of being able to find a block. Right now, the only thing holding back Gridcoin's popularity is that it's confusing to a lot of people who still don't grasp the full concept, have no idea what BOINC is, are intimidated by learning a new way to set-up mining a coin or are just too obsessed with the garbage alt-coin that they've been pump-n-dumping that they just don't bother to take the time. What will really boost the value of Gridcoin is when there are services available that accept Gridcoin for payment. When there are goods/services available that people can spend their GRC on, that is when the price/volume will begin to really climb for Gridcoin trading as that is when it will catch the eye of day-traders. Right now there is no purpose to owning gridcoins other than to sell them, we need to create reasons for other people to buy them. But I firmly believe that within a year we will see many new services accepting Gridcoin (some of which I am working on myself) and I believe that once those services start becoming available, Gridcoin will experience larger and more rapid growth than any other alt-coin to date.

I just voted for Gridcoin on AllCrypt. You can keep pressing upvote until a window pops up telling you can't vote anymore. Don't know if anybody has mentioned this new exchange somewhere in the thread before but maybe it's a chance for Gridcoin to hit another exchange? http://www.allcrypt.com/beta/voting.phpHaven't had much experience with exchanging yet but I think it would definitely not harm Gridcoin to spread to one more exchange, especially since the next currency to be added to the exchange is vote-based with the ability to vote every 24h I think the Gridcoin community has a fair chance of making it (at least from what I've seen so far )

Good Work Rob!!! I found this interesting site and GRC is listed there. http://www.wheretomine.com/#home But there is no any info about price, diff and other. I wrote a mail to wheretomine@gmail.com in which i put links to Block Explorer and c-cex API. I hope that owners of the site will notice it. You can do the same, guys And i hope soon we will get modified Block Explorer with total quantity of coins. If i'm right we got 8'940'600 GRC mined already. We finally got the underlying problem fixed; the coinbase transactions in some circumstances are complicated with all the cpuminers; we had to import all the transactions into a database and modify the block explorer to pull them in, now I am seeing the full coinbase transaction list per block. Now, I need to re-sync the block explorer from the genesis before we can release the new block explorer with the stats on the page. Hopefully by tonight the numbers will be on the page. Grid

What is the point of starting CancerCoin when there GRIDCOIN already and Curecoin which is about to launch in a few weeks. GRIDCOIN is already doing all this and more. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=324118.0Here is the stats for team Gridcoin on the Boinc Network! If you want to help with potential new cures just join the Gridcoin team on roseta@home and start doing protein research or you can join team Gridcoin on the World Community Grid!

Why don't you ask the admin of the exchange? does anyone know how much is the fee to withdrawl btc from c-cex.com?

You have to check the block explorer http://explorer.gridcoin.us/. The coin count will be displayed soon, the dev is working on that now. Here is the points sheet for team Gridcoin. Anybody know the average hashrate for the Gridcoin network and how many coins have been produced thus far? Just curious. I think this is by far the best idea for an alternative crypto. Think of all the wasted electricity with those other currencies! Thank you.

It doesn't really convey what Gridcoin is about. If there was a grid surrounding it or something like that, that would have been cool.

The reason people want to see the supply is so we can get Gridcoin on coinmarketcap.com ! any news on coding the total supply on the block explorer? Its a big deal; still working on it. We're getting a feed of fees+master coinbase amounts but still missing CPU mined coinbase amounts. BTW, What is this for? What project is waiting for this data - can you please send a link? Thanks, Grid

The loading time seems much better. I see you have chosen the new logo already.
