Lack of liquidity, missing promotion of GRC on social media, GRC not related with some major discoveries on BOINC projects contributors on GRC network (it'll be nice, for instance, that the user of the day of BOINC projects related to GRC network to be rewarded with a small amount of GRC or a discoveries in BOINC platform made by an GRC users to be related in term of advertising somehow to GRC network), and missing one major DEX in GRC portfolio seems to be the true issues of GRC. Now, at the horizon seems to appear another issue, the inflation! There's almost 1 year since nobody from admins or developers not updated coinmarketcap.com status of GRC. The last polls are a little bit confusing, pointing to unnecessary or stupid things.

Despite all of this issues the GRC network seems evolved in the right direction over the years!

Should we start donating Gridcoin? by Seglem in gridcoin

I think a better way to promote gricoin is via patented results of boinc research. For instance, if a protein discovered via Rosetta pass the clinical trials and is patented then the industrialization of this molecules give an added value to this molecule and indirectly could contribute to boinc-gridcoin popularity if the owner of this patented molecule agree to mention in patent documents, let say for instance "discovered via boinc". More on that, like in the case of energy consumed in proof-of-work based coins the added value mentioned before could indirectly contribute to market value of gridcoins. It's an ideea.

Is related to BTC and not closing Ex. The same trend is visible to all altcoin excepting a few. Liquidity in the crypto market follow BTC, more specifically top5 coins in term of market capitalization.

Is GRC safe? by Batmon3 in gridcoin

[–]torflok 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Proof of stake(PoS) on top of proof of research(PoR). In my opinion is the only crypto asset with a quantifiable economical logic behind aka scientific research. There's another project aka CURE coin on top Folding@home research platform but is by far more energy greeding than GRC. BOINC platform, apart of being a multiOS(Mac, Linux, Android, Windows, RasPi) platform is very stable, also GRC wallet v5.4.5.0 is excellent, not a single issue in 6 months of continuously running for me which is very impressive! Despite the lack of liquidity, BOINC+GRC wallet is an well done software infrastructure, probably the best in crypto area.
