Create WCG Blockchain Coin

Hi.

BitTorrent (BTT) coins have been added to the Binance market some time ago.

BTT Coin will receive BitTorrent users for reward.

I guessed why the WCG Coin could not be created, which would be given to users for their performance and which users could exchange for money on the Binance Stock Exchange. The emergence of the WCG Coin would mean an influx of new users who would benefit from this coin by giving their performance a good deal.

P.S .: Google translator...

Re: Create WCG Blockchain Coin

There are already several crypto currencies that are distributed dependent WCG points.
I don't see a benefit of another one. Besides that, this creates several problems, for example cheating will become a much larger problem than it is now. I would not recommend WCG to become directly involved in that kind of thing.

Besides that: someone has to pay for the hardware and electricity that runs World Community Grid, crypto or not. If the volunteers are paid with crypto and cover their costs with that, someone else has to pay (namely the poor guys who buy the crypto from them and lose everything in the end, when its value ultimately goes to zero). I don't think that makes the world any better after all, besides drawing some short-term attention and increased WCG output for some time.

Re: Create WCG Blockchain Coin

WCG (more IBM really) would have to worry about larger things like did the Coin count as a Security? Cryptos are still the Wild West with few laws that actually outline anything to go by.
