I've invested one heck of a lot myself, and didn't take making this posting lightly. I am also speaking for myself as you are and the fact that I'm one of the top non bitcoin boinc producers in the world, must also say something. I currently boinc for team one of the more reputable Boinc communities, but I do not speak for them. I was one of the six people at Ars Technica that exposed the Seti I text WU cheating scandal at the end of that project. Adaption means we have to USE the already existing incentive system for our own good.

We, as the sub community, will eventually have to adapt to that system. Since the beginning, people are fighting for their (team) stats and NOT for any kind of reward. (highlighted text is the link you asked for) They have established their intents in their own forums. with the intent to become the dominant boinc group.

They have been doing this for a while now and they have become the largest daily bionc producer. and as an end result establishing their gridcoin cryptocurrency. Gridcoin is a team not a project, they stated that they intend to become the largest boinc team ever by advertising the ability to profit using it. I have a problem with Boinc being used for personal profit or as a tool specifically for profit by advertising. or supporting a program that supports Boinc. I have no problem with Boinc being used to defray the costs of running it. Read some of their other forums and you will see that their actual intention is to take over Boinc and incentivize it for user profit.īy the way, do you have a link to the above? Don't look at my administrator or moderator titles for this, I have an opinion of my own away from BOINC as well. That one should be able to earn money running BOINC is my personal opinion, by the way. Might be nice if a project paid that back. You fund the computer, the hardware therein, and the electricity it runs on. I'm sure that in hands-on science that happens as well, and besides in all other cases you pay for everything BOINC does with your computer. If no one adds a project that does things like this, the project will quickly turn around.īut on the other hand, being paid for doing the science of a project doesn't sound wrong to me. Whether the project pays people to run their data, or asks for money to do so, is not up to BOINC to decide if that's possible or wanted, but up to the users. BOINC is open source, anyone can use it for their science.
