Gridcoin Community Hangout #055
Need some $GRC to get your wallet going? We will be giving away 5 FREE GRC to anyone that needs it, up to 100 GRC per hangout!
Free Gridcoins are provided by the other members of the hangout as a kind gesture from the community.
Want to suggest a topic to discuss?
Reply with your suggestions in this Steemit post, or on the Reddit repost, and we will discuss your topic in chronological order of submission.
Can we discuss anything?
It's advisable to stay generally on topic, attendees are distributed around the world so they may not (likely won't) share the same views regarding controversial topics not related to Gridcoin/BOINC/computers/cryptocurrency.
What is Gridcoin?
Gridcoin securely rewards BOINC computation on top of Proof of Stake. Reward allocation is distributed, not centralized unlike other distributed computing related cryptocurrencies.
Where can I listen to the raw live stream?
I will try and simulcast a stream on DLive for the first time this weekend! https://dlive.io/@peppernrino
Where can I listen to edited versions of the hangouts?

Why are we holding these hangouts?
- A mumble conference call can provide significant advantages over communicating via text.
- To create opportunities to inform the public of new Gridcoin, BOINC, and related services & their development progress.
- To bridge relations between the cryptocurrency & BOINC communities, and our users.
- To be transparent in our actions.
How long will the hangout last?
Shooting for a hard limit of 2 hours.
Gridcoin Hangout #055 will be held on:

Would it be possible to include a GRC exchange directly into the wallet to make it easier to get started?
That's probably a stupid idea. But I had it so I'm adding it as a conversation subject, hah!

There's way more people willing to participate in discord because it more simple then Mumble. Ultimately it's better to reach more people. Dismissing it just because it's discord is silly.

I disagree. Mumble is more simple. It is literally nothing than talk app.

for one: the certificate generation throws a lot of people off. even jringo couldn't change his nickname for like 2 months. lol
for two: i prefer the sound quality in Mumble, but there are simply more people coming to the Discord hangouts. even excluding sock puppets. ;)
for three: Discord IS more system exhaustive. i've proposed a bridge between the two, and @tomasbrod even accomplished it for one classroom, and the result was basically piping in a bunch of abuse from the Mumble. that shit can't happen again. you know who you are.
the medium is NOT the message. it's about getting our message to more people at once. let's all get over our hangups, and figure out how to make this work for everybody that isn't the regulars/hosts. <3
