About Gridcoin
Gridcoin rewards users for contributing idle computing power to scientific research via BOINC (Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing). Rather than wasting energy on arbitrary hashing, Gridcoin miners perform useful computational work — protein folding, pulsar detection, climate modeling, and more. The Proof of Research consensus distributes rewards proportional to verified scientific contributions, making Gridcoin one of the few cryptocurrencies with a tangible positive impact on science.

How to Swap GRC
Exchanging Gridcoin (GRC) on SyntheticSwap requires no account creation or identity documents. Open SyntheticSwap, choose GRC as your source or target coin, provide your destination wallet address, and review the floating rate displayed. After sending GRC from your personal wallet to the deposit address, the swap processes automatically and your chosen asset is delivered directly to your wallet. SyntheticSwap never holds your funds at any point during the process.
How to Store GRC
Store GRC in the official Gridcoin Research wallet, which also manages BOINC participation and staking rewards.
