It is indeed an interesting option especially when you are crunching WCG.
I did crunch WCG during the good old BOINC-only era and have build $3.00 equivalent in Byteballs. I would be more than happy to donate them because I will not be able to exchange them to Gridcoin on Bittrex (amount is too small).
A Gridcoin faucet funding idea
So here is an idea for @grider123 :
If there are more people like me who have received some Byteballs and are willing to donate them, could you collect and convert them into Gridcoins for your faucet? I will be the first one to send you my Byteballs. Something to add to your next Gridcoin.ch faucet donation post @grider123?
Great idea! You can send them to LJW2ICYCAOE66HQEHXMMTIHVBKLQAEWN
