RE: [AMA] We are Dutch (top Gridcoin solo miner) and Vortac (Gridcoin and Steemit whale). Gridcoin is a cryptocurrency mined through scientific research instead of POW. Ask us (almost) anything.

I, as one of the oldest Gridcoin community members, will contribute once you are up and running!!

We might be able to find a solution to that ever present worry as one gets older , neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's or dementia ..

How far away are you from getting the project up and running?

That's fantastic! Of course, we would have to get whitelisted first.

The project is actually already up and running internally. The problem is that our simulation type (stepping through time and space) does not lend itself well to distributed computing. This is because it is hard to chop the work into many small units. I am working to minimise the error associated with this compute method to acceptable levels, while also keeping compute time as short as possible.
