RE: AC Infinity Cloudline T6 - My Solution to the "Hot Miner Basement Blues"
I think that will ultimately be my next project but thankfully I'm a solid 6-7 months away from needing to do that. In the summer, I really don't mind opening up a window down here and pushing the hot

RE: AC Infinity Cloudline T6 - My Solution to the "Hot Miner Basement Blues"
If my house was set up differently, the simple solution for me would be to move my rigs out of the basement and onto the main floor. I think for most people, that would be a feasibility. I'm fortunate

RE: AC Infinity Cloudline T6 - My Solution to the "Hot Miner Basement Blues"
haha - astute! I wouldn't say I've "sold out" but rather allocated my hardware to places where I can make a return. I continue to contribute to the GRC community both in my time and some of my

RE: Why I am Very Disappointed by the Upcoming V8 Removal of the Magnitude Component of the Gridcoin Staking Weight
Security in this world (unfortunately) has to always be the top concern. I don't love the concept of losing out on my magnitude stake weight, but if that's the price that must be paid to avoid security

RE: Brainstorming Gridcoinstats Ideas Thread [25 SBD in Bounty]
While a mining profitability calculator would be nice, I see very little value in having a calculator go from RAC --> GRC/day. The difficulty is reaching a good estimate for RAC in the first place.

I've chatted with you a bit about this, but I think the best thing GridcoinStats could add that it doesn't have already is a mining profitability calculator for each project. It has been done before (Katieee

RE: Gridcoin whitelist poll: SourceFinder with zero workunits for at least 3 weeks. Remove from Whitelist?
Sam -- thanks so much for checking in. I just want to reaffirm that our attempt to remove SourceFinder from the Whitelist is in no way a reflection of our feelings about the SF project as a whole. In reality,

As always, I appreciate your input SC. I agree that there are many differences between Gridcoin and SPARC. That's the main reason I encourage people to just take their existence at face value and focus

RE: Did you notice an UNEXPECTED magnitude/reward drop in the new superblock? => Stake only as investor, temporarily
Same with me. I believe the benefits of staking to the blockchain outweigh the slightly less earnings I might get. I also believe (correct me if I'm wrong) that any benefit you get by making this move

RE: The Great Debate: Lifting the Gridcoin Team Requirement
I would support it 100%. I think it's important to get this issue out in front of everyone again, and give everyone the opportunity to really discuss it and disseminate all the different angles and opinions.

Agreed. And again, the community has the power to adapt Gridcoin as we go along. Everything doesn't have to always stay static. If we encounter an issue, we will work to fix it.

I will happily admit to flagging your content when it is justified. You get to say whatever you want to say on Steemit, and other users have the freedom to downvote you if your content is bad.

RE: Why I Vote "No" On Adding Projects to the Gridcoin Whitelist If they Do Not have Sufficient Work-Units
Ultimately, dividing total GRC magnitude/daily coins evenly among each whitelisted project is the primary issue. If the PoR mechanism somehow was able to reward people purely based on how much work they
