This decision was not easy.<br \/>\nWe made this decision for two main reasons:<br \/>\nTo re-focus our strategy for XRP distribution<br \/>\nThe Computing for Good giveaway system is in desperate need of a fundamental re-architecting<br \/>\nOur new giveaway strategy<br \/>\nRight now, the most pressing need for the Ripple ecosystem is on-boarding more gateways. In service to attracting more gateways, we will focus engineering resources on user giveaways that help gateways attract new customers.<br \/>\nIssues with Computing for Good<br \/>\nRecent issues that you may have noticed include:<br \/>\nWorld Community Grid changed its website several days ago, which in turn broke our point calculation system because we relied on the website to perform payout calculations.<br \/>\nComputing for Good led to a small set of community members setting up mining operations to maximize their daily take &#8211; 1% of the participants earn 50% of the XRP disbursed daily.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;ve also seen a small set of team members brute force attack other World Community Grid (WCG) accounts to register others\u2019 computing time for their own XRP redemption. This activity is unacceptable and unfair to team members who just want to do good.<br \/>\nThe WCG API used in the giveaway architecture is sometimes unreliable, which disrupts timely payouts.<br \/>\nWe\u2019re winding down the giveaway during April 2014, and will first shut off new user registration, and then slowly decrease the amount of daily distributed XRP. In the meantime, we\u2019re committed to honoring all missed payouts. Please write into support@ripple.com with your WCG username, the dates that you have not received payouts for, and a screenshot of your \u201cMy Statistics\u201d page from the WGC webpage for any dates that are missing or incorrect on your Computing for Good stats page.<br \/>\nWe\u2019re also searching for a suitable partner who can help us re-build the Computing for Good giveaway and make it more robust and better than it was before!<br \/>\nTHANK YOU all for participating in Computing for Good. Team Ripple Labs on World Community Grid grew to 22,000 team members, making it the largest team of all time, and generated 36,880 years of run-time &#8211; wow, we are so grateful!
