You got my ASICs mining Curecoin and 4 mostly-idle computers folding. Well done!

Although it's way too soon for extra projects, any thoughts about curecoin becoming a part of human-powered folding via http://fold.it/ or similar?

Great question! One of the benefits of the way we are handling payouts is that new projects can be added to the coin, which would allow people to earn coins on more projects than folding@home. While we aren't planning for any specific project right now, the possibility is certainly there, fold.it is an awesome project, and a human-powered means of earning Curecoins would certainly be an attraction.

That's great, since machines made of proteins (humans) are good at folding proteins, it'd be a fun way to get people with low hardware power involved, since their inbuilt cpu/gpu combo (brain/eyes) is pre-optimised for folding Wink

Also: mac wallet soon? offer a bounty for first compile if you don't have a mac dev on board?

Also also: MacOsX can't fold using gpu, (although windows running on a mac will).
It looks like it works but never receives work. Known issue. Thought I'd put it in this thread.

Also also also: I might have inadvertently hijacked a long-abandoned F@H username, even though the F@H site sent me a passkey for it. In my F@H noob-ness I didn't notice that it has WU history from 2012 and earlier. I guess if they try to fold now with that username they'll be prompted for a passkey and have to set up a new folding name, so it looks like you need a disclaimer on cryptobullionpools etc to avoid this by picking an unused username for folding, lest we annoy F@H users without passkeys from long before curecoin's launch, or even encounter potential situations of F@H users contributing unknowingly to someone's coin earn.
