Vorksholk, as was mentioned before in a previous message you express your ideas quite well and offer a lot of information people have an interest in. I realize your time is limited but I do hope you post much more often. So many questions whether thought or written instantly get taken care of when you post your thoughts. Thanks for the information!
My personal feelings are that more integration and hopefully acceptance from Stanford and PL can only help legitimize CureCoin for the long term. I don't want to alienate anyone but the fact is that many miners that became folders will leave this project when it no longer profitable to fold. Trying to make the coin "profitable" in my view shouldn't be the point, but I know large scale miners have no choice in the matter because they have bills to pay. Even if they are only here for a short time more WU's got done than would have otherwise been done. So it is still a win.
I can only ask that when their hardware is no longer profitable but is still functional please redirect it back to CureCoin and folding. Don't immediately sell your CureCoins. Just see what happens in a couple years. Consider it buying a lottery ticket and the work done just might save your life someday. At least that is how I look at it.
I've read several articles where people realized they had several million dollars in Bitcoins on their hard drives. I hope that same thing happens with my CureCoins someday.

Win, lose, or draw though, at least the processing actually did some real valuable work.
Yeah I know it is idealistic but that is what drew me to this concept in the first place.
