I'm guilty of buying some myself. LOL. GRC is currently very very undervalued. I mean, seriously. Look at the tech we have in the coin. It's definitely worth a lot more than what it is now. And the new features we are testing in testnet, would bring even more value to GRC. And Rob's new idea blew my mind. In coin options exchange.
To quote Rob,
I think having the ability in the coin to buy a Put would be pretty huge; and if we did this in a decentralized way, even bigger.
Actually I did not fully understand this new idea(s). Will we have an actual exchange in the client? Or will it be optional? Will we be a competitor to our partner-exchanges or do we just provide additional possibilities which they do not provide?
But apart from the things I don't understand, I truly believe we are just at the beginning of the rising GRC price. Just think about the basic principle of Gridcoin: using a kind of PoW in combination with PoS for something good, for science. No other coin can do that. Okay there are/were some but they were only focusing on one project like folding coin, right? We have the full variety of BOINC at our disposal. Actually I am proud to earn a crypto-currency due to cancer research or CERN stuff for example.
