Folding@Home is one of many distributed data processing projects. Millions of Internet users from all over the world participate in it. It is enough to go to the website of such a project and install a small program. Thanks to it, our computer will download data from the project website, process them, and refer to the project the results of its calculations. Thanks to the huge number of connected computers, such projects have enormous computing power, which significantly accelerates scientific research.

The Folding@Home project focuses on medical research related to protein coiling, drug design and other molecular dynamics issues. Such research requires gigantic computing powers.

As part of the Folding@Home project, we can now help to fight the coronavirus. Everyone can devote a part of their computer’s computing power to work on the search for vaccines and drugs to fight SARS-CoV-2. All you need is the appropriate software, which can be found here.

After installing the software we will see a simple control panel.

We choose an option:
1. Set up an identity
2. Start Folding (start Folding)

NAME => you can give any name (I gave quake_andy )
and if you join TELOSCOIN TEAM, you must specify:
username(nickname, maximum 5 letters)_walletTeloscoin e.g.
(quake_GTkkAgGoji5UmQ8io……..) if you have questions, join to https://discord.gg/5YysSPM and and write to quake_andy

Team Number => enter the team number, if you want to join TELOSCOIN TEAM you must enter 262511

Passkey = > is not mandatory, but you can generate yourself at https://apps.foldingathome.org/getpasskey , you enter your username and email. You will receive a generated passkey by email.

After pressing SAVE the program will start:

The most important for us is a drop-down list called “I support research fighting”. If we want to work on a cure for coronavirus we should choose COVID-19 (marked 1) . Then our computer will be doing calculations for the drug over COVID-19.

In this way, everyone can contribute to the invention of the drug for COVID-19. Folding@Home will only use the free resources of our CPU and GPU. So we can easily use the computer while Folding@Home is doing its calculations in the background.

As part of the partial compensation for the electricity costs incurred during the calculation, symbolically for each person who joins the TELOSCOIN team (team number 262511), I will provide
1 TELOSCOIN za 1 WUs.
If you get 1000 WUs every day, for example, you will receive 1000 Teloscoin provided that you join
to the TELOSCOIN team (team number 262511) https://stats.foldingathome.org/team/262511

Teloscoin will be paid out by hand every week on Saturday/Sunday and until the discovery of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 drug.

You will find a link to the list (exel) on:.

In addition CEO TELOSCOIN Pascal PAPARA gift
Total 30 000 telos to the participants. He will choose randomly 1 group member per day and donate 1000 telos to him.
The number one (ranking) after 30days will get 10000 telos as thank you.
