The Gridcoin mining experiment - will the crash have influence

in utopian-io •  7 years ago 

Cool experiment, thanks for sharing!

On the subject of seeing changes with the crash, my guess is that projects like VGTU will see more of a hit than a project like Einstein or SETI. I say this because Einstein and SETI have a more universal appeal, and I think people are more likely to run them purely for fun. VGTU, while absolutely a good science based project, is a little harder (for me) to get excited about. Their current project is grillage optimization, which I doubt many non Civil Engineers care much about. This would perhaps be an interesting thing to track.

Looking forward to seeing more!

VGTU is a special case indeed. For this experiment it is important to only have one fixed task, fixed version and CPU only. And of course I can't switch now or it has to start all over. I have spent a lot of manual work in this data gathering so I prefer not to switch ;-)

Just to be clear, I wasn't saying you should switch, I was just idly speculating. Keep up the great work!

I didn't misunderstood you, I was just clarifying ;-)
