Our GSC (generic smart contract) currently requires a daily stake, to prove that you own a certain amount of coins relative to your BOINC RAC.

Each daily contract looks for this stake to be present, otherwise we don't include that researcher in that days rewards.

So you could theoretically open the wallet once per day for a minute and manually type 'sendgscc wcg' and then close it, or, you can leave it run and have the daily transaction transmit once per day automatically.
