For a very long time the gridcoin.ch faucet was well filled and never in danger of getting emptied.
With the number of daily claims steadily rising it has gotten harder and harder to find enough grc to fund the faucet.
So this is kind like a second faucet donation post tha I will use to buy gridcoins for the faucet.
I just donated 1000 GRC.
Thank you!
if I could stake (it's pretty rare) I'd side-stake into it ^^'
If I staked I wouldn't need to beg in faucets, but thats only for few big whales owning almost all.
I have 5K and is almost useless...
5k (if in one address) should be enough to stake every second month or so. Works quite well with my addresses, even if the 7k one maybe stakes a little bit more often than the barely 5k one ..
once per 2 months.
Woww
well it doesn't change the amount of grc you receive, but i can understand your frustration.
You could also setup an oracle cloud server to keep you wallet up & running 24/7. I say oracle cloud because they introduced a permanently free tier, where you can host two virtual machines for free. They are weak, but it's enough for a wallet or some lightweight services
I see. but this is not the idea of all this. I have laptop online 9 - 10 hours a day staking but is almost impossible. If you explore the chain, almost all stakes are big whales with split UTOXs with around 100K (but they are all the same address in the end).
Personally, I dont feel this helps more people to join the networks, but the opposite; and thats not the idea of a secure network
