Steem Monsters meet Gridcoin and Gridcoin meet Steem Monsters.

Steem monsters is a new card role playing game that will record everything that takes place in the game in an immutable, decentralized manner on the steem block chain. The developers are Hive account@aggroed and Hive account@yabapmatt. The alpha release post by Hive account@aggroed can be found in this post. You can use your steemit account to join here: https://steemmonsters.com
You can trade cards and send as gifts to others.

If you are a steem monster fan and have never heard of gridcoin and are interested in cryptocurrency then gridcoin might be for you. See links below to get started.

There will be tournaments for steem monsters and winners will get STEEM, SBDs, upvotes, Cards, and Card Packs. I anticipate during the tournaments there might be teams. Since gridcoin has an amazing community, it makes sense that gridcoin should form a team. This is also a great opportunity to promote gridcoin. This game looks like it’s going to be highly successful based on the pre-sale of these cards. $25,000 have been sold in the last week with over 10,000 boster packs already sold. Is it a coincidence that Steem and SDB just went up soon after the release of this game? So right now go and get some cards while the Steem and SBD is at high rate. People who bought last week we’re paying way more SDB. There are 59 cards in this game some of them are very rare and the legendary ones are going for $60. We don’t know what powers they have now but the ones I like are the ones with the colour purple! The colour of the Gridcoin logo! Purple power!

Yes the Lightning Dragon is a bit pushing it- but it does have a purple tongue! LOL Maybe that tongue has POWER.

Again this a great opportunity to get the gridcoin community together to form a team and have fun at the same time promote gridcoin because it looks like steem monsters is going to be a big success and many steemit whales for example Hive account@berniesanders are promoting the game.

update: I just realized all the Epic cards have a Purple icon!
Here are the Epic cards from @zaku 's collection:

Instead of wasting energy on useless hashes, Gridcoin rewards “miners” for using their computer power to help with scientific research on the BOINC platform.

Join Gridcoin Research and BOINC and Change the World

BOINC (Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing, pronounced /bɔɪŋk/ – rhymes with "oink") is a distributed work platform that has been around since 2002 and rewards all participants with credits. BOINC consists of over 500,000+ active users and many more computers. BOINC holds the Guinness world record as the largest computing grid in the world. It is a popular platform for researchers to do large amounts of distributed work. The infrastructure is already in place, and no payment is required. Doing distributed work is purely voluntary, where users can attach any project of their choosing.



Gridcoin Research is a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) cryptocurrency that rewards Proof-of-Research (PoR) for BOINC computation.
