One of the next (mandatory) releases will include this new:
- Gridcoin PoS kernel v8
One of the changes there will be:
- "most notable effect is that magnitude does no longer affect your stake weight. Investors and BOINCers now have the same chances to mint a block. This drastic change was needed to eliminate an exploit. On the other hand a compensation for less rich BOINCers is already being designed."
- Thus, it seems, one of the recommendations for less rich BOINCers appears to be to stay in a Gridcoin pool
See the Gridcoin milestones also here:
Other upcoming changes are to fix:
- ability to exfiltrate user's email addresses (used also in BOINC) from the Gridcoin blockchain
- hijacking beacons (stealing an user's CPID registration)

When these and others fixes really do come ("scheduled for NN2.0 or right before it") I'll keep you updated on.
