Gridcoin 4.0 — CBR

Gridcoin has updated to GRC 4.0! The hard fork took effect on November 6th at block 1,420,000, with 95.6% of the previous 1000 blocks staked by 4.0 clients denoting overwhelming consensus.

The most notable change with GRC 4.0 is the introduction of a constant block reward (CBR), rewarding those who help to secure Gridcoin’s proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchain with a static 10 GRC for every staked block. CBR replaces the 1.5% APR interest mechanism that was previously in effect. This change was approved by the network in three separate polls and produces a number of technological and economic advantages. These advantages include:

-Increasing the ratio of GRC minted to more heavily favor rewards for distributed computing tasks over GRC minted by staking

-Reducing monetary inflation from 3.93% to 3.4% while also implementing a disinflation model that will reduce inflation past 3.0% after 5 years

-Incentivizing members of the network to leave their wallets up-to-date and online to secure the network
Encouraging members of the Gridcoin network to maintain balances of GRC sufficient to stake blocks

-Gridcoin is a dual-incentive open-source blockchain that uses a PoS consensus mechanism to secure its blockchain. It incentivizes securing the network as well as contributing computing power to community-approved scientific, research, and data analytic tasks on the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC).

Gridcoin attracts a diverse network of science and technology enthusiasts who want to use currency incentive models to improve lives around the world while remaining environmentally friendly. Our journey began and continues by driving scientific discovery and research. The implementation of CBR is one more step on our endless quest to apply blockchain technology to real-world problems.

Is there a way to figure out the average block reward from historical data for this coin?

New Marketing Initiative for Gridcoin
https://medium.com/@gridcoinnetwork/new-marketing-initiative-for-gridcoin-367e0969bde5

With 2019 approaching, it’s again time for Gridcoin community to decide and vote on our marketing efforts for the next year! Recent post by jringo about setting our marketing budget is, I believe, a step in the right direction, but I thought about expanding on that idea by adding some concrete advertising proposals which have been implemented before and can be implemented again, quickly and reliably. So let’s get straight to it.

A chance I was coming to get some potential updates and news.... when I was not expecting at all a mandatory update of the wallet ;-)

New Marketing Initiative for Gridcoin has been posted, which I believe could help us regain some of the value we lost during 2018:

Gridcoin Birthday Competition! — Share your Gridcoin story



A while back, shortly after the rebranding of GRC, community member joshoeah wrote up a post about his Gridcoin story. Well, now it’s your turn.

In celebration of Gridcoin’s 4th birthday, a group of developers and community members have pooled together some GRC to give as reward for some inspiring Gridcoin stories.

If you’re wondering what a GRC story might look like, have a peek at Josh’s post linked below:

Hello everybody!

Since the last superblock (1379933) Gridcoin has a new whitelisted project:

https://www.dhep.ga

This project is CPU only and is about developing self-diagnosing electric circuits through evolutionary methods.

Have fun and keep crunching... Wink

No reason given, just one of 8 coins up for delisting.



Imo reason is simple, so mickey mouse volumes that it cost more to support wallet than getting any commissions from trades. A bit sad, but I understand why delisted. probaly we will never see any price bigger than 600satoshis
