Investigating the Pomegranate Network Mining Gridcoin

in gridcoin •  7 years ago 

There has been mention before of integrating BOINC into the Gridcoin wallet - could this possibly be a solution to the problem? For example, a sub-version of BOINC that can only be used and has its GUI in the Gridcoin wallet, ideally developed in conjunction with BOINC so that this problem doesn't come up again?

There was a Idea, and I still support it: to replace (parts of) the boinc manager in the gridcoin wallet gui. The reason is: less icons in the notification area and more centralized user interface. However this plan does not want to modify, replace, or integrate the core BOINC client daemon in any way. Only the user interface. Gridcoin task

I don't think it's in the interest of Gridcoin to take over any part of BOINC. Rather, we interface with BOINC to get the statistics we need for Gridcoin.

If anything, we'd work with BOINC to develop a better way to report those statistics, not to curb researchers at our own will.
