It is nice that regenerative energy is used to mine, but it is still a waste of energy.
Better to put that power into Gridcoin "mining" aka solving scientific problems in the BOINC network and getting paid for it in Gridcoin. Gridcoin itself does not need PoW for the chain.
Hey. Thats a great Idea. We work on that right now. We will use hashpower for Protein st. Calculations soon.
We cant do it with Grid. I wrote a message to the dev team but never heard back from them.
hm.... There so many possible points where it possibly failed...
Have you been to gridcoin.us?
Followed instructions?
Install BOINC on your crunchers. Attach to projects. Join team gridcon. (You can remotely control clients using 3rd party software from one computer - I do that with 15 Atom SoCs.)
Set up a wallet and get a few coins.
Wait for more to come in ^^
There are also regular posts about gridcoin here on steem. You can look at them.
The Dev "team" is unfortunately mostly one and a few on side-projects like http://www.gridcoinstats.eu
We try to get more programmers in it but its hard. They all want pay ;)
ok thanks alot. Will check it right now.
