    Been around longer than Eth has. You can check out the mining/crunching guides at gridcoin.us. If you run into any questions hop on the discord people are happy to help. Source: 5 months ago
  • What are the best projects for running on a raspberry pi 4 (8gb)?
    Generally in terms of best to run for earning GRC it's math > physics > health augmented by CPU/GPU. You can get an idea of which those are by looking at the whitelist on gridcoin.us. I would avoid sidock for pis, iirc their workunits are very read/write heavy which isn't great for an SD-card based system. Source: 10 months ago

    I run BOINC with Gridcoinโ€ฆ but youโ€™re likely not going to make much, if anything, after electricity. Itโ€™s for science tho :). Source: 11 months ago

  • I'm Interested in DCA-ing into Bitcoin. Any thoughts or suggestions?
    One crypto that I can get behind though, is GridCoin (https://gridcoin.us/) - A coin that uses your CPU and GPU power to solve science problem through simulation. In return for the work you have done (your pc) you get gridcoin. Those gridcoin were minted based on dollar contribution of companies who tapped the resources of the network, but the down side is that, because they are not bitcoin they aren't as...
