Definitions

• Gridcoin Network RAC = The total RAC of all systems on the Gridcoin network for the project.
• Gridcoion Network RAC vs Overall RAC % = The proportion of RAC the Gridcoin network has contributed as part of the overall RAC for the project.
• GRC per 1k system RAC = The amount of GRC you will receive for a system per 1000 RAC. Example: You have a system which is running Rosetta@home with a RAC of 3500. According to the chart on 30-Sep, you should gain 3.5 x 0.44 GRC = 1.54 GRC per day for this system.
• USD per 1k system RAC = The amount of USD you will receive for a system per 1000 RAC. Example: You have a system which is running Cosmology@home with a RAC of 4700. According to the chart on 30-Sep, you should gain 4.7 x $0.00284= $0.013 per day for this system.
