This is a guide to folding with Folding@home, not mining CureCoin.

Mining CureCoin is wasting CPU power on scrypt hashing to create a block chain where half of the block reward goes to the guys folding in your team.

I still cannot see how mining the coin helps the folding project.

Wouldnt it be better for anyone if we just threw away all that coin-related stuff and use the CPU power to do more folding instead of securing the useless blockchain?

compared to the uselessness of most coins... id say the electricity will be better spent mining or folding for curecoin. Its no secret that bitcoin mining is a rather large waste of electricity already. Not sure why you decide to worry about it now. This way, at least half of the electricity will go to folding. better then the contributions of every other coins minus the exclusive primecoin.

like previous post , curecoin needs the oldschool hashing to secure the block chain. From what details i have there has been more work put into this coin then any other (maybe minus primecoin).
