Fair enough. Ultimately the decision would have to be voted on, and it's certainly within our power to maintain some sort of artificial incentive to crunch smaller projects if that's what we decide we

All good points. In order: The newest BOINC credit system is more sophisticated, but still has other problems. Regardless, this is a problem that affects the current distribution mechanism as well.

In order to address that problem, we discussed ways to incentivize crunching smaller projects if they fall below a certain threshold; that solution is discussed in the third point of the "Impact of

Thank you :)

Elon Musk has proposed using GRC as the native currency for the coming Mars colony. ;D

Add 7,000 GRC from me to the bounty.

The full quote is: Active vote-weight (AVW) is a calculated average of the vote weight actively securing the network for the duration of the poll, plus the network magnitude, less the magnitude of any

Active vote-weight (AVW) is a calculated average of the vote weight Should be coin weight, not vote weight.

note the ticker is SLR not SLC Thanks for the correction. I have seen a lot of crossover in the missions of the two coins, so this is an excellent idea. The main SolarCoin community hangs out on Slack

I'm not sure I follow. My current understanding of what I've read is we would be paying for the electricity used twice. The first time through our electric bill, the second by donating GRC to an renewable

We buy solarcoins with gridcoins through voluntary actions? That was how I phrased it; there could be other mechanisms as well, but I opted for the simplest option for this proposal. Apart of the direct

I'm glad I'm not the only one either :P I wonder how long it would take to buy up the Amazon before it gets destroyed if the airline companies offered that option and every passenger took it...

Absolutely. I was going to address this option as well. The more cryptocurrencies that are involved, the stronger the multi-currency economy, its applications, and its popularity, making the whole ecosystem

To answer your last question first, yes, it would be best to start with green energy first. However, 1) that isn't an option for everyone at this moment in time, and 2) if/once we achieve a green-energy

I was crunching LHC@home as well for a while without problems, and then started getting "computational error" problems back in the winter for every one of my LHC work units. I upgraded VirtualBox

Hi @nexusprime and @h202: I have been skeptical of the reliability of the latter values for some projects. I have the same concerns. Finding an automatic way to lookup the FLOPS for the different components

Thanks for the update, I wonder what their improvements will be and how/if it's possible to guarantee that such incidents won't happen again.

Nice job. Definitely a good idea to present staking time in terms of confidence, rather than absolute time intervals.

No, as sum(n) = N; usually we use n to count things, here I've used it (not a great choice) as a value of one utxo. I'm not sure this contradicts my original point, as the formula for B still only contains

Thanks, didn't know that.
