Gridcoin

Gridcoin is a decentralized cryptocurrency that securely rewards BOINC (Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing) computations through means of a Proof-Of-Research algorithm. A volunteer community of research-based computing enthusiasts, Gridcoin employs some of the latest security mechanisms, and offers its users a unique opportunity to be a part of the ongoing development process through in-wallet voting, as well as through open source code contribution.
