The economics of the coin address this. It's a fairly complex system. Lots of issues but solid progress due to some recent devs and contributors.
Additionally contributions toward BOINC are not used to secure the ledger due to the security hole you point out but again look at the economics to learn more. Proof of Research is not a real thing.
- roboticmind 6y agoAh yeah I should have mentioned that its PoS and that PoR is not really a thing anymore[1]. It's proof of stake that makes the actual blocks. The research rewards are just added on top of staking. Even all the project just suddenly shut down or something crazy like that, the network would keep on going just on Proof of Stake [1] It was around for some time technically alongside PoS, but this was removed over 4 years ago. Not sure how long it was a thing since I was just learning about Gridcoin when it was removed
