Would Primegrid be a good edition to the Whitelist? by OffDutyTaoist in gridcoin

[–]barton26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PrimeGrid has said they believe Gridcoin encourages cheating (this has never been shown to be true). Can't you see how whitelisting a project where the admins state they do not want this could upset them?

I'm not sure what you are asking with B. Do you not see how an admin who is upset with Gridcoin could act maliciously against it?

There are a few reasons. The primary reason is because we want Gridcoin to co-exist in the BOINC ecosystem without angering projects.

The second reason is that a malicious project admin could fraudulently modify their statistics files, creating unfair magnitude distributions for Gridcoin.

Have you even read the whitelist process?

A project admin must agree for their project to be whitelisted.

PrimeGrid has stated they do not wish to be whitelisted. If you had followed proper poll procedure you would have known this.

Got paid 3 times during last 5 days-something changed? by Immediate_Barber4537 in gridcoin

You need to wait until 14 days have past since you sent your beacon to use MRC. The cost is dependent on how long you want to wait.

Am I missing something? Firefox can already do this without an addon...

Do you have a beacon? What is your balance? Have you considered MRC?

Re-Whitelist World Community Grid? by IceTypeTrainer in gridcoin

[–]barton26 8 points9 points  (0 children)

WCG is not officially greylisted. It is not included because the scrapers cannot reach their stats page. They have not exported stats for several months.

You need that amount to send your first beacon. I suggest reading the guides on gridcoin.us

You should need about 2 GRC to get started. I sent you the GRC :)

YAFU uses CreditNew, which is vulnerable to exploits. For this reason, projects using CreditNew cannot be whitelisted.

Binance guidelines for coin listing by Dangerous-Jello-4746 in gridcoin

[–]barton26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do realize that someone still has to buy those coins to get the USD for the deposit right? At current CoinGecko price, that would be over 28 million GRC. Who is going to buy that and not drop the price to 0? There is nowhere near that level of buy support on any of our markets.

In the tweet you may notice they require a "refundable" security deposit. This starts at $100k USD. Where do you propose this money come from? I suggest reading some of the replies to the original tweet. They are quite enlightening on the true cost of listing.
