October update: BOINC, WCG, Gridcoin, Bronze badge for the Smash Childhood Cancer project.

Smash Childhood Cancer, the BOINC project has started with active distribution of tasks 2 weeks ago, following announcement below:

https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/about_us/viewNewsArticle.do?articleId=656

So first badge - Bronze, is earned. Bronze badge is given for 14 days computing on the project, counted and summarized by a CPU. Silver badge is the next one and given for 45 days of computing.

All together my performance with WCG is as follows:

• Emerald (1year) for Covid computing, there are 2articles submitted for publication. Based on crowd computing outcomes.

• Emerald (1year) for the cancer markers

• Bronze for the Childhood cancer project

I also compute WCG projects with GRCpool and those results are not included here. With recent Fern update, this will be possible to compute Solo with any group and without GrcPool.

I am currently trying to gather GRC coins to start Solo computation. Below is a magnitude and GRC payout after I started to compute Amicable numbers project with GPU.

While magnitude rose from about zero to 60, GRC yield grew from 20 GRC withing 3 months to 100 GRC for several days computation on GPU.

If I manage to set up Solo research more with Gridcoin, I will write an update on progress and outcome. Right now I still compute with the following services:

• BOINC without Gridcoin, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=edu.berkeley.boinc

• BOINC with GrcPool - Android and a laptop.https://grcpool.com/

• Microgrid - which is simplest way to compute for the Gridcoin, GRC. https://microgrid.arikado.ru/

Joining is simple and standard BOINC app is perfectly works, computes WCG tasks on almost any Android device.
