What can you win?

Why we created Folding Club?

Curecoin and Foldingcoin always welcome “citizen scientists” (like you) from around the world to “merge-fold” with us in order to help researchers while earning valuable CURE and FLDC tokens. As competition for our tokens rises, we realize users with low-power computers don’t often earn enough tokens to warrant the added effort. This is why we’re creating “Folding Club” – an incentive designed for all citizen scientists who want to contribute to scientific research and great charities, while still earning opportunities to win monthly prizes.

Detailed Instructions Posted Below – Good Luck !

• Optionally add your bitcoin (BTC) receiver address in Shortstack to enter our monthly BTC drawings.

How to verify your Work Unit (WU) progress, open the Donor Statistics page on Folding@home, and enter the passkey we shared with you (have patience):

CURE and FLDC Tokens Trade for bitcoin on Bittrex Exchange (and others). In the future, we plan to offer additional prizes in CURE and FLDC, however this promotion is intended to introduce a broader section of the public to Citizen Science who may not otherwise participate.
If, in the future, you would like contribute to Stanford folding research philanthropically, or earn your own Curecoin and Foldingcoin, we recommend you create your own passkey and follow merge folding instructions on either curecoin.net or foldingcoin.net websites.
