I actually think that it could be very good, provided that this digital currency matures.
It would provide the funding to pay people.

hi

I believe it would be better to use usual paypal donations, and put the efforts into better GPUGRID infrastructure (for example you can host subprojects on molecular simulations etc)

the more cards you connect to bitcoin network, the cheaper it becames

Try to guess how it should be if all BOINC projects will open a "side project" like donate@home...

- what's BOINC?
- bah... don't know, it was for scientific research but now... they are making money
- ah ok, always the same ending

yes, exactly

you highly lower the respect to distributed computing in this way

if you want to know the opinion of 2,584 members of team Ukraine (in top-40 on BOINC-wide and Folding and in almost every other project)

i'll translate into English: shame. we crunch for science, not for money

you better close this stuff now and excuse

thank you for attention,
rilian
manager of team Ukraine

ps: this is the last message, i am not going to spend time on this any more.

appropriate postings will be placed on Free_DC, boincstats.com, WorldCommunityGrid and other respectful site

Clearly, you are upset, but don't look at this then.

We have made some changes though. We think that the idea is interesting, people is free to think otherwise of course and avoid it. I have made the changes that you guys suggested on the donate@home web page.

All further discussions can continue politely at donate@home.
