I was on the Curecoin team as of last year. It's a neat project, but they weren't able to manage a working relationship with Stanford.

There is a unique opportunity here to use digital currencies to fund scientific research through the use of a reward mechanism and distributed ledgers.

Our project is hoping to take a similar idea to scale (research/project-based "work) by utilizing open datasets posted on decentralized technology. We hope to build relationships with institutions, non-profits, and the public sector to track the economic and social value of campaigns similar to the Folding@Home and Seti@Home projects, but with a capacity to on-board projects as they appear.

I suggest sending the leaders of aforementioned institutions/non-profits/public sector establishments a healthy dosage of LSD if you hope to persuade them to work with you.
