Folding at home is a global project which crowd sources computing power for scientific and medical research. Volunteers direct their unused GPUs to the folding network to solve many important problems whose solutions can help humans immensely. But with the raise of crypto-currency mining, due to a lack of incentive, most unused GPUs are usually used for mining. Folding Coin brings back the incentive to mine FLDC. And instead of performing useless PoW work, these Folding miners advance the medical field. FLDC is a second layer on top of Bitcoin.
