What would BBP get in return for whitelisting Gridcoin?
I feel that we should put this up to a community vote soon.
I look at the recent stats.
grcpool-1 240,013 RAC for WCG ^1.3 = 9869728.24683 BBP
grcpool-2 243,870 RAC for WCG ^1.3 = 10076411.4274 BBP
grcpool-3 310,788 RAC for WCG ^1.3 = 13810312.7629 BBP
33.7M BBP would need to be staked. I don't think it is a meaningful enough quantity to affect the exchange market either way.
I read GRC with their next mandatory (called FERN) will whitelist all teams. I don't see any benefit to BBP whitelisting any teams then. Miners can decide if they want to join team BBP or join team OByte to double dip GRC. GRC is a good group with lots of BOINC projects. I think it makes sense for them to whitelist any team. BiblePay is more specific in its focus. I think we benefit by having more people on Team BiblePay and it is a sorely needed marketing angle.
