The article really should mention http://www.gridcoin.us/ A Crypto currency awarded for actual BOINC work units.

I was a big fan of Folding@home back in the day, but now that I have the wonderful responsibility of the electricity bill, I've stopped all work. I wonder if Gridcoin could become a suitable offset for those bills in the future?
