I see Gridcoin has a true innovation if you have a deep look at the efforts that the dev. team has made. Please really consider this coin which benefits the real science.
Agreed. There used to be new threads here frequently from people objecting to the "wasted electricity" from most mining. Such threads often advocated using BOINC in some way. Now this is possible in the form of Gridcoin, and it looks like a serious effort to me. As a long-time BOINC user, I also mine and endorse Gridcoin now. Since it's a scrypt-based altcoin, you do not have to compromise your ASIC-based
BTC mining to use it.
If you know of BOINC only as SETI, please be aware that it now includes many project alternatives, including those from the IBM-sponsored World Community Grid ("Gridcoin", get it?) - research projects seeking cures for cancer, malaria and HIV/AIDS, for example. This is serious stuff. Please check for yourself.
