The blockchain that cures cancer
Mentions
GRC. Support science. Cure cancer. Track asteroids. Fold proteins.
Should mention, no one ever sent me anything before except for a couple of ancient faucets, and a wonderful person who sent me some GRC so I could science compute. Hmmm.. what happens if you mix moons and GRC?
BOINCers did exists before all crypto was founded, what ever happens to cryptos, as long there is a way to exchange BTC / GRC or any other trading pair, it will live on. But who can say, what will happen in five years?
List of active coins over 10 years old 2009 Bitcoin BTC 2011 Litecoin LTC, Namecoin NMC 2012 Ripple XRP, Peercoin PPC 2013 Dogecoin DOGE, Gridcoin GRC, Primecoin XPM, NXT NXT
There are a lot of good POW coins with very low fees (under a penny). Examples include RVN, GRC, BCH, XMY. Even Dogecoin allows several dozen transactions for just a penny. Once you get well under a penny, I don't think there is much advantage in going all the way to zero fee, especially if that zero fee allows someone to occasionally spam it. I think Nano shows that maximizing any particular property of a coin to the serious detriment of other properties is bad engineering.
Bitcoin being better doesn't matter. I think OP's point is that the West will never use the RMB, as it's the currency of their adversary. If the West won't use it, most developing nations will use it for trade with China **only**. It will never become the GRC.
Sure i mean that all depends on bitcoin going back to its ATH or past it but if that happens then almost everything rises. Not saying it will do a SHIB but its market cap to get to even just $5 makes it a possibility. Their have been a number of buys on moons from outside this sub (well known luna trader GRC bought 450,000 just few days ago and they are def not on this sub) now its on the CEX’s its part of the game
GRC is a macro algo investor. He’s got a longer time horizon. He knows crypto, and aims for the fences. It’s a bigger deal than most realize.
I traded my 1/10BTC into GRC when gridcoin went all the way up to $0.11 before the eventual peak. I'm gonna HODL all my GRC anyways... Bag holder 4 lyfe. Same with my third party app allegiance I guess. It's been a nice run, folks.
I think that everything the alt coins are built off of isn’t near the potential capabilities of Bitcoin. Bitcoin has and always will have an end goal of the GRC. In order for that to happen banks would have to use it as the reserve currency which would alleviate all the stress and fees on the network that you are mentioning. None of these alt coins have the same potential to become the GRC. We would have to trust whoever creates it when we know that Satoshis identity is hidden and we know the reason he chose to do so.
I clicked on the "Buy with GRC" link and shit my pants laughing: The DEMO version only includes 4 pages: http://gcrcoin.com http://gcrcoin.com/es/home-es-es.html http://gcrcoin.com/home-es-es-3.html http://gcrcoin.com/wallet.html It is possible to download these free files and install them on your server, so you can test how the site works.
Gridcoin. Use your computer's spare processing power to do disease research, get crypto (GRC) in exchange. Your GRC can then be used to earn staking rewards and vote on which scientific research is incentivized.
Btc has potential to become the GRC imo. That’s the path 1 mill per coin. It’s easy when u learn enough. Read the Bitcoin standard, it lays it out perfectly. The usd is no good and something will need to change. If the world can find a way to be a more equal place then btc is a part of that future
I've dabbled in lots of shitcoins, but I figured if I'm going to throw money away on shitcoins, I may as well throw it into a shitcoin that rewards people for folding proteins and contributing to science. That's why I'm all in on Gridcoin these days. Mature project around since 2013 (started same year as Eth), you can use your GRC to vote on which scientific research is incentivized, etc. It's basically Banano but if they were actually serious about supporting science long-term (Banano's folding rewards come from a pre-mine that will run out one day and requires PoW for anti-spam)
it honestly doesn’t need to be shilled. GRC isn’t a speculative shitcoin. the project is doing amazing things for alzheimer’s research and also helps with the mapping of space related stuff.
Have to hijack here sry. Why did you include GRC which is super low cap but not [XCH ](https://www.chia.net/security/) which seamingly exceedes BTC in number of nodes.
Yeah, knowing nothing about that project, I'll comfortably never care about it. SEC wants in on the game, and they're too late to control it. It's BTC or nothing. Real tech will survive regulation. I don't need a us state sanctioned shill fest when ETH and BNB already exist, as well as countless projects that actually are sound money. MATIC, XYO, GRC, ETH, BTC, ALGO, even COSMOS and ICP are better buys than whatever the fuck the SEC is sanctioning. We already know their history with stocks, and I couldn't care less about Gary's twin brother. Until the US government can actually regulate themselves, their nit ready for the power of DAOs and NFTs etc - at their true potential.
The point of the faucet it to get people their first few GRC which are needed to create a beacon to do Gridcoin mining :).
Yep, two other cool projects. Gridcoin rewards about 15 different BOINC projects *and* folding @ home and has been around since 2013. You can actually mine Gridcoin and Curecoin at the same time if you're folding. With GRC, you can vote on which projects get incentivized and you earn staking rewards.
Is anyone here into [Gridcoin](https://www.gridcoinstats.eu/), which you can earn crunching data for the BOINC project? It's a really fucking cool idea! Earn GRC while you use your spare CPU to run numbers for various projects.
https://gridcoin.us/guides/foldingathome.htm. If interested in earning GRC while folding or crunching.
Boinc and GRC was my first step into mining. Active member since 2015or so, and still 24/7 CPU-crunching for NFS@Home
Great to see more attention being given to GRC, to me it is one of the most promising and useful applications of blockchain technology. Regarding your title, buying pizza is also possible with GRC, probably harder than with btc, but totally possible and non exclusive with folding!
Another project from WCG crunches data about rainfall in Africa to improve rainfall models and help farmers plan more productive crop yields to fend off climate-change induced starvation. Worth checking out if you're interested, they could always use more volunteer computing power and you can stack some GRC as well :).
Like other mining the answer is.. complicated. Running a standard desktop PC or laptop at least in the US might cost you $5-$10/month, roughly the same as a 20" box fan. Unless you have the latest equipment and very cheap electricity, it probably won't be profitable (except perhaps in winter when you factor in the savings on your heat bill, I definitely turn a profit in winter). Same as all mining, the difficulty and payout adjusts in a cycle so most users are breaking even or even mining at a "loss". Though all the energy goes to science and you get to contribute to something meaningful, so it's never a loss in my book, I'd be doing it even with no crypto :). You can also always just be a staker, which doesn't require a bunch of computational power. Staking earns you 10 GRC per block + any fees in that block (which can be much more than 10 GRC, but is kinda random). Roughly $50 USD worth of GRC would stake on average once a month given recent network difficulty values. The amount of mining we can subsidize is directly related to coin price (which is based around the coin's perceived utility), just like the amount of hashing Bitcoin can pay for is. Bitcoin subsidizes millions of dollars in hashrate every month, I would love to see Gridcoin be able to subsidize even a tenth of that, that's a TON of science getting done.
Well - officially just spent my first moons for a reward for OP. Great post, and thanks for enlightening this community on GridCoin GRC.

There's a tool FindTheMag which can use stats from your own machine to show profitability for mining/crunching, but you must crunch some work first for it to have benchmarked.
Ive been running GRC for about 6 months. They have 17 incentivized projects including BOINC and folding @home. Great community.
As someone who was doing scientific research with Gridcoin Classic back in 2014 and still is mining $GRC today, I agree your message is important. Unfortunately most people on this sub have been told crypto is a fiat get-rich-quick scheme, and their minds are lost. But thanks for holding up the banner, in the end this world changing technology can succeed.
Not new, but a great crypto is Gridcoin $GRC. Use case: Using idle CPU/GPU time to perform real scientific research on topics as diverse as pure mathematics, astronomy, disease research, even Minecraft. Community: Very dedicated community, own Devs who have built on-chain voting. Older than Ethereum and not going anywhere, highly decentralised.

Thanks for the comment! Enjoy the GRC!
ETI : 0xe232B3c233b8E3A68d354819663CB63c1B0fDCBE ​ I couldn'T figure out how to add GRC and curecoin though
For those who might not know, this was a recent vote on the GRC blockchain that asked whether we should allow Folding@home crunchers to get rewarded by the GRC network. It passed and hopefully soon the devs will be implementing tha 'adapter' which will make F@h compatible with the rewards system on the Gridcoin network. This is proof that GRC can work with not only BOINC but most other volunteer computing platforms.
Sent some GRC! Thanks for commenting!
The way I see it, the problem is that Gridcoin has no tokenomics. GRC is just created out of thin air by participating in BOINC projects. But the projects don't buy GRC and don't pay the participants for their computational power - no GRC changes hands.
Why then does the US have 750 US foreign military bases; that are spread across 80 nations. USD is only useful because it's the self designated global reserve currency, but it wasn't the first GRC, and will not be the last.
A little debt can be fine. But we print fiat money out of thin air with no asset backing it up. We are in EXTREME DEBT globally right now will no signs of slowly down. It won’t slow down either until printing money out of thin air stops and we get a new and different GRC
Instead of Banano, you could also mine Gridcoin (GRC) by donating your computing power to science. However, you probably won't make a profit on these currencies and should therefore go in with the attitude that you are donating your computing power to science and the cryptocurrencies you receive in return are a partial refund of the donation.
Even if it becomes GRC it will stabilise at a certain point. It can't double forever.
I don't think it's ever been a PoW coin, but it is a green alternative to bitcoin. It's kinda like Gridcoin, which came out in 2013. It's also proof of stake but uses BOINC credits to reward users for their work, so you advance science for GRC.
Since 2008 was very dis-satisfied with banks. Heard of bitcoin around 2011/12 maybe, but I run BOINC so I was conflicted about moving to mining some Magic Internet Money. Kept looking for useful PoW and in 2013 found Gridcoin Classic, failed to get it running at first, but by 2014 was running scientific research for Gridcoin Research. In fact I still do science for $GRC today, its a crypto I will never sell my original coins.
With Marshmellows. Which is just as likely as BTC becoming the GRC.
Stupid peope actually do not realize that if BTC becomes GRC, you can forget about any bull runs or bear markets. It will actually become stable, and that is not what you want since you are looking for a casino and that 50x gain that will make your pathetic future somewhat brighter, since you can not relly on yourself and your skills to make it thru the life, but instead you are looking for an easy way out Parthetic
Gridcoin (GRC) doing the do, for BOINC too. Love both projects!
GRC for the science not the greed
Trade deficits as GRC are okay, deficit spending regardless of currency status is okay, but we still have to use those funds to generate real economic returns or it snowballs into hyperinflation if no changes are made.
Yeah, luckily, I have much more GRC now than I lost originally. However, I can still see where I mined that GRC in my BOINC stats, so it's a little sad to me lol.
Fellow early Gridcoin miner here, I still mine today BTW, never stopped!! Sorry you didnt backup your wallet.dat, those were the days when crypto was much harder... I started buying into Cardano prior to Shelley at about $0.08, just wish I had gone all in then. Never selling my original $GRC though, not even for $ADA.
Is running BOINC and getting GRC or OByte also defined as proof of work?
ETH and rETH (the ETH POS token from Rocket Pool), and GRC because the coin actually serves a purpose supporting science.
Gridcoin (GRC) the original science coin!
Conservatively - Bitcoin. Opportunistically - ALGO, LINK or GRC. 🤔 I have a soft spot for infrastructure projects.
So hoping r/gridcoin and scientific community gets some love given it's code is GRC :-)
Found a couple more. GrimaceCoins crawling out the woodwork. [Ether Token version](https://etherscan.io/token/0xb4646b9c7b5c65d38229fd9d567296de434b8b60) [BSC version ](https://thebittimes.com/token-GRC-BSC-0xf7cD04c5F68996bC842855946b91de352E0Ecba1.html)
according to etherscan.io, grimacecoin (GRC) has 1046 holders already
Gridcoin (GRC) earns rewards for many research projects on the BOINC platform.
GRC gridcoin. I don’t think it’s so much hated but maybe little known. After getting delisted from bittrex, it tanked and holding stead at .01. Proof of stake, easy to “mine”, active community, and mining actually solves scientific problems. Not all in but I have been active for several years and will stay with it.
I think you'd have to know yourself pretty well to achieve the 'middle ground'. It's not impossible, but making more money, just begets wanting more money. It's hard to know when to stop. You make a good point though. He was boring before he became rich, he probably was just too stressed out to notice when he was poor. Or maybe all his old friends still have dayjobs and he has no one to hang out with, in which case I feel bad for him. Or maybe he's just humble bragging, like he's bored with so much money, in which case he should invest in GRC. It's been delisted in a couple of exchanges since 2017, but I hear it's making a comeback.
My favoured coin right now is Cardano, but since Im in crypto since 2013 I have moved on many times. The only coin I will never sell out of completely is my first, Gridcoin (GRC). I have deep respect for the goals and community, and I hope its mission survives. In terms of what would move me from Cardano, its crypto fundamentals of decentralization, disintermediation, security and open source first. Only if something was better on those and then had other advantages I would move on.
Idk, I bought about 3 BTC for $300 each. Unfortunately, I used them to buy GRC. Sold half for mostly VET at its ATH (plus some other minor shitcoins) and held both all the way through the 2017 bubble and until this current hype cycle where I finally sold off some. I've since traded half of the remaining VET for TRAC, but I still have my 100k GRC (mostly because it's all but worthless and just holds sentimental value to me now). Point being, I like to believe if I stuck with BTC, I would still have about half of what I bought in 2015 now. (Plus a lot more cash).
They say "we be trees, take our NFTs and prosper." :) Bought my first crypto in 2013, Gridcoin (GRC) still got them and doing scientific research to mine more.
Gridcoin. You can download a program that runs in the background on your computer (only when the processor isn't being used for anything else) and does computation for science research. There's a bunch of open projects you can contribute to from asteroid mapping to testing drug combinations for COVID to mapping climate change. And then you get rewarded with GRC (Gridcoin). Your computer is on, it may as well be doing something useful right? The way I see it, even if I never make any money on it, it's not a loss as I contributed something to science.
Gridcoin(GRC), computing for scientific progress.
One of a few coins that can be earned with old hardware, cpu and gpu earning possible! Also double earning, for example GRC and OByte possible.
Gridcoin has a great community as well that predates soooo many much larger coins. Love my GRC. Flyp.me is my go to for buying some
I got a good name for ya, GOLDEN RETRIEVER COIN, GRC
Nice to read that coins like CURE, GRC and GByte are still on topic! 😎
Gridcoin (GRC) was my first crypto in 2013, due to its good humanitarian mission and great community, I still hold and stake it.
Gridcoin since 2013, and yes I still actively do scientific research on my computer hardware that pays out GRC
> If an attacker had your first 6 words, they would need 1 minute to brute-force the other 6 and steal your funds. Not quite. Let's do a bit more math on this. A computer can, in order, go through all 2048 words on the list very quickly. In this age when computers can do billions of calculations per second, let's put this to the test. 2048*2048*2048 is 8,589,934,592, or about 8 billion. Let us assume for simplicity that we have a very powerful computer that can do this in one second. To brute force the NEXT three words, it would still take 8589934592 seconds to guess. Which is about 272 years. Let's scale it up then. GRC says that a massive cracking array scenario, something comparable to multiple government agencies pooling their resources together, assumes one hundred trillion guesses per second. This will take (2048^6 / 100 trillion) seconds. Which is just over one week. A hacker will not be able to steal your funds in one minute even with half of your recovery phrase, even if it's only 12 words long.
What a bunch of nonsense, miners cant afford to curtail mining, its competitive. Just use excess power from renewables to generate hydrogen for fuel cells for transportation. If you really want to use excess power, then do actual useful work like BOINC or Folding@Home and incentivize with $GRC. No matter how you look at it PoW is a waste.
Branched out a bit since but I have stuck with GRC gridcoin since 2016. PoS, Been around since 2013, Easy to mine with work that does some good, active community and dev. Used to be easier to buy but low activity got it delisted from a higher traffic exchange.
Curecoin is nice. For an alternative that supports dozens of varied research projects check out Gridcoin (GRC), everything from astronomy, pure mathematics, disease research/genomics, even MineCraft! https://gridcoin.us/guides/whitelist.htm
I would love to see some that computing power put towards running BOINC to earn GRC, which could then be staked in the wallet or traded.
GRC - Gridcoin. There's almost zero chance of it mooning and the coin looks dead if you look at the charts, both the unfortunate result of no marketing skills or budget anywhere to be found with anyone involved. I still love the idea behind it: Rewarding people for contributing computing power to scientific projects of their choice through BOINC, which has existed long before cryptocurrencies. Basically, most people receiving GRC are people who already used BOINC before and didn't reject free money for continuing to do so. It's sad, because it could really serve as an incentive for more people to get into volunteer computing and for projects to reward/incentivize people for choosing to compute for them.
Gridcoin (GRC), my first crypto love, and one that I will never stop.
Came into the game ~2013 but decided to stick with Gridcoin (GRC) for way to long. Project had a high intrinsic value for me, but... One succeeded, one did not. While some "learnings" here and there, overcommiting in something turned out as a always bad idea.
Gridcoin (GRC). I BOINC for the science. Accumulating GRC is just an added bonus. https://gridcoin.world/
