Hello all.
BOINC is a group of projects where you donate your computer resources for science. Gridcoin is cryptocurrency for rewarding BOINC calculations. Currently gridcoin rewarding CPU and GPU projects.
Also gridcoin is ASIC-resistant, because BOINC tasks is not uniform. And science community appreciate if you invent ASICs for protein folding, physics simulation or math.
As you may know, there is only one gridcoin pool exists - grcpool.com. But now this is not true.
I wrote new pool for gridcoin mining. This pool send same rewards as grcpool.com (i.e. without fees). But it uses different code.
If you were interested, here is URL:
https://grc.arikado.ru/Register (you should have valid gridcoin reward address, exchange address allowed too), attach as account manager in BOINC manager, attach to projects, sync, sync one more time after five minutes, check that projects attached correctly on the site and wait for rewards.
Rewards are sent when pool receive DPoR block (from 2 to 5 days).
If you want to change pool, you should detach from previous pool (in BOINC manager Tools -> Stop using), remove previous pool projects, register and attach to new pool, then receive projects from new pool. It is necessary, because otherwise you will still receive rewards from previous pool.
Please note, when you changing pool your rewards will fade in your old pool, and rise in new pool. It takes time.
