Colder temperatures have arrived to our country and, despite I have never stopped BOINCing since more than one year and half , I have to tell that the CPU and GPU of my computer appreciate the "softer" temperatures.
On summer I have seen the GPU temperature sensor reaching values of 72 Degrees celsius while today, hardly reaches 60 degrees.
Additionally to the good thermal conditions that my room is benefiting from BOINCing today , crunching and staking at GRIDCOIN provides me with both, good stake of GRIDCOIN coins and good sensations and moral benefit because my feelings of being helping for the sake of science development is somehow "orgasmic".
To tell you the truth, I am keeping BOINCing and GRIDCOINing mainly for the second benefit more than for the first.
GRIDCOIN altcoin is not having a good time as the whole Crypto Market but, for GRIDCOIN in particular, is being much tougher.
However, as you can see in the chart above, GRIDCOIN has the potential right now at least to multiply its current price ($0,010189 USD) 18 times fold.
GRIDCOIN [GRC] is one of the most veterans coins at the Coinmarketcap. It's first announcement came to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=324118.0 on November 2013.
GRIDCOIN is the rewarding coin for BOINCers .
''BOINC is an open source volunteer computing grid which combines the processing power of individual users for the purposes of scientific research. It is free to use and already home to 30+ projects spanning a range of scientific disciplines. Examples include protein structure prediction (Rosetta@home), mapping the Milky Way galaxy (Milkyway@home), searching for record prime numbers (Primegrid), and tackling problems in public health and clean energy (World Community Grid)."

At GRIDCOIN, the word "MINERS" is not used, despite is a very similar process, instead we use the term "GRIDCOIN RESEARCHERS". Thus, your computational power is better used not only for regarding you economically but for doing RESEARCH.
The installation process is really easy, you just have to install BOINC in any computer, Android tablet or the like, attach your devices to Researching projects you like and start BOINCing. The same with GRIDCOIN, simple installation of the wallet and simple steps to follow and that's all.
Just go to GRIDCOIN and follow the excellent guides there.
Also the following explanatory videos are very educative and useful:
Enjoy!
