An altcoin to reward the search for alien inteligence?

Anyone here ever heard of folding@home? It's a distributed project for people all around the world to initiate protein folding through their home computers. This helps accelerate the fight against rare diseases. Foldingcoin and Curecoin are rewarding users participating.

There's a similar program called SETI. From Wikipedia: Its purpose is to analyze radio signals, searching for signs of extraterrestrial intelligence, and as such is one of many activities undertaken as part of the worldwide SETI effort.

Why isn't there any coin to reward those users? SETI programs went under a massive expansion recently thanks to big donators (2)and need help analyzing data. An altcoin to reward users financially would be a great incentive. What do you think?

You should be banned for using the post for marketing of links that are not even connected to Cryptocurrencies, let a lone alien hunting.

That's quite funny. I'm only talking about a possible altcoin I imagined after learning about SETI. Nothing to advertise here, at least as of now!

if we contact aliens. I think trump might build a wall, a space wall.

It's more about extraterrestrial intelligent beings other than illegal aliens. I think Trump would probably be happy.

But he could pay for it with ETcoin. Lol
Supply based on how many planets we are on, super reward for first contact, start beeming the premine into space to start the galatiac trade,  presale to new species, humans are devs, so we keep 50% of supply. Dump it all when we get out there in the stars. The edge of the observable universe is the limit here lol.
In all seriousness, a SETI coin would be neat, but would be worthless once we found actual aliens, as the search would be over.

Would foldingcoin and curecoin be useless if folding assisted in the finding of a cure for a serious disease? I doubt it! It'd only bring on more popularity and help gather more interest for the hunt of more cures for other diseases. Likewise, confirming alien intelligence through SETI would attract immersive interest on the program and also accelerate the hunt for tracking the beings while searching for more.

I know some people who would buy this.
