Description
Gridcoin is a cryptocurrency that rewards participants for contributing their unused computer processing power to solve scientifical tasks. Beside this users can stake the rewards in form of GRC Coins in a wallet. The scientifical tasks are coming from whitelisted projects, for example the BOINC project.
I was drawn to that project because I have already been a volunteer user of BOINC, especially for the SETI@home project to search for extraterrestrial intelligence.

I again left abbreviations untranslated but commented such as: OER – Open Education Resources = "offene Bildungsressourcen" since this is a core aspect of Gridcoin which makes it quite unique to this project and can be seen as a unique term.
Besides this, footnotes are left unchanged as well and were filled in by copy & paste to avoid typing mistakes in URLs.
