RE: Start collecting Ethereum tokens for BOINC work!
Well, I've signed up to be a guinea pig and see what happens. They are apparently validating CPIDs by having you sign up for Rosetta. I haven't used Rosetta, so I've added the project but my CPID isn't the same as my others, so now I'm having to run some Rosetta stuff to see if it syncs up. You cannot just enter your CPID - you need to enter your Rosetta ID and then post to a message board with your public key.
Seems difficult to use already...
Okay, so my Rosetta account has synced and I've posted my public key to the message board as requested: https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum_thread.php?id=12145&postid=86928#86928
When I hit connect it amazingly was able to look up my CPID, so that was nice. Below that you then can select projects from a drop-down, currently the list includes:
Supposedly you can request more by e-mailing; I've e-mailed to request WCG.
For each one you, you need to enter your project ID number (not your CPID).
Beyond that, not much else to see, just a single page, nothing else is available right now. I'll let you know if I end up earning any SPARC.
So in less than 8 hours, the admins responded to my comment and added WCG. They also added a bunch of other projects:
Still no signs of any SPARC earned yet, but even if I did earn some this week, they wouldn't pay out. It looks like the real Alpha will possible payouts begins August 6.
Still pretty positive sign how responsive the admins are.
