Nice work! I wouldn't let this minor objection keep you down. You can always spot check a computation on a trusted system (e.g. your own) and update your trus

Nice work! I wouldn't let this minor objection keep you down. You can always spot check a computation on a trusted system (e.g. your own) and update your trust accordingly.

Thank ya! Plus the way it's setup right now, you don't pay for anything until you done and satisfied with a session! I just want both parties to be happy with the GPU compute transaction :)

  This looks awesome, I just submitted a hosting application. I only have a single GTX 1060 on a Ryzen board, but I only use it 3-4 hours per day and I'm good with its downtime being used for passive income. Hopefully someone will find it useful. One question, I noticed you only pay in crypto right now, do you plan to offer USD or other fiat currencies in the future? Crypto isn't a problem for me (I don't mine crypto myself but I wouldn't be opposed to carrying a passively obtained ∗coin balance and watching it appreciate over time), just curious. Anyway, I think you have the makings of a nifty project here. Good luck!

    I was thinking about paying out in fiat, but crypto is so much easier because of no fees, instant transactions, and not having to deal with various currencies. While something like Stripe Connect may be useful, the fees are unreasonable for smaller transactions. A quick hack to cash out to crypto is to use your Coinbase wallet address as the payout address, and just sell off the crypto the moment it hits your wallet.

      Why no Bitcoin Cash? :) But seriously, it does have the lowest fees of the four supported by coinbase, and always should (since that’s its whole raisin d’etre!). Cool idea, well done!

        Honestly I wish I had a good answer to this. I didn't think about supporting BCash because I had never seen it used before. If enough people are interested in it, I can add support since it's already supported by Coinbase/GDAX.
