helpfully points out that the next (and hopefully final) fix to forkapalooza is nigh. When that happens, the low price of GRC will not last long. In preparation for the extravaganza let's organize the best way to get some Gridcoin.
For now, you must buy a coin like bitcoin or litecoin (litecoin is faster and has lower fees) from someone like coinbase or others; then using an exchange convert it to Gridcoin and send it on to your wallet.
So far I've noted that:
- C-CEX is on an old (3.6) wallet. I wouldn't use them till they upgrade.
- Poloniex won't accept me because I don't have a camera on my desktop, and the camera on my ancient laptop is apparently not capable of taking a clear picture.
- Bittrex is not taking new customers either.
- Flyp.me requires no registration and after my own tests, is completely easy.
I can't comment on the decentralized exchanges since once I found Flyp.me I stopped trying.
Personally I would expect a sharp uptick in the price of GRC when it goes live on the exchanges.
Ladies and gentlemen, start your browsers.
It's time to buy.
