Is there something that prevent people from compiling the open source code from Gridcoin-master and running it? If you can compile and run it, then the payout calculation is there?
A quick look of the source code, I would try to change those 2 files first, compile it and run it.

main.cpp, line 1171 for GetBlockValue, change it to "return 150;"

rpcrawtransaction.cpp, line 751, change it to "me.payout = 150;"

Thanks for the questions.

These types of hacks are addressed.
I assume your hack is :
A) Not run boinc
B) Compile a fraudulent version with a static 150 payout in the block subsidy calculation.

When your subsidy block is created the boinchash inputs will not match the computed hash and when the block is forwarded checkwork will return 0.
The block will not be accepted by other users.

Thanks!
