Strike! Team Gridcoin is finally in TOP10 fastest BOINC research worldwide:

Because mining does not mean solving meaningless hashes but doing simulations for science and there is an incredible potential for commercial applications, which can use the basically free computing power of gridcoin's miners for useful computations (eg. machine learning, data processing, rendering,....)

General sponsorship is wide open, donate any amount; your donation amount will determine where Gridcoin's name and logo appear on the sponsorship list.   Early sponsors at any level will likely get lots of long term attention.   Currently PICISI has 3 sponsors (Armis, Crypto Cloud Hosting, and The Einsteinium News); the current high donation equivalent is 100 USD, and low equivalent is 25 USD.  Your Gridcoin donation will be immediately converted to establish an USD equivalent value, the Gridcoin name and logo will be listed accordingly.

As you know coin community sponsorship will play a major role in the day-to-day operation of the site, your coin's sponsorship will likely inspire other coins to consider sponsorship too.  Please direct your Gridcoin donations to this address: G4TNd2xJU9WeNvPfbdzdCTQ5goNBeRSYBe and post the TX ID for proper association.

PICISI will be a crowdfunding website that accepts fiat and cryptocurrency.

It will be a very powerful vehicle for introducing CC to the broader world.  It will enable many different coin communities to get their respective coins lots of exposure
and use.  Utility is the highest function for a currency, with PICISI Organizers and Donors are gently immersed in a world where CC has meaningful and practical
financial value.   At PICISI CC gets a lot of attention.

When visitors come to the site to raise funds for things that interest them they will have the opportunity to collect fiat as well as CC.  There are two host currencies, one for fiat and one for CC.   The Organizer has three options: a) accept sponsorship, b) select from list of CCs, or c) PICISI coin (default).  If they select sponsorship they will actually get paid because of that selection.   That's a great way to introduce CC to someone.   As Host CC sponsor all CC donations (regardless of type) are immediately converted to your currency and remain in that currency until spent or for the duration of the campaign.  The Organizer has the opportunity to spend CC donations with a campaign contractor(s) who help Organizers create, develop, and/or promote their campaign.  Thereby having your currency 'respent'.

In addition to Host CC, there are 4 other sponsorship opportunities.

With regard to Gridcoin, your coin has a focus on Science and innovation so you will probably do well to sponsor campaigns in that area of the site.

For now, I'm specifically looking for people to endorse the PICISI plan -- tell me that you like the plan;  and I am also looking for sponsors to help me start and develop the site.
Of course I will display signage for supportive sponsors.

Can you give some more details on what exactly this is?

Gridcoin is invited to consider being an official sponsor of PICISI:

Let's hope this trend continues.
