I have a general method for checking the correctness of most large-scale HPC calculations, and the verification is much faster than performing the calculations themselves. Basically it would let you outsource your calculations to some random-ass compute cluster in a gentooman's basement, and you could easily verify that the result was calculated correctly. How do I turn this into a profitable business?

It doesn't work for arbitrary code execution: you would have to use one of the pre-built algorithms in the client library, and that's where I'm stuck. I'm not sure if I could get everyone to rewrite their code.

How much would a cryptocurrency with a non-wasteful proof of work algorithm be worth? Asking for a friend.

Get used to the reality of rejection. Some people simply are not going to buy insurance and no amount of shrewd salesmanship will change their minds.

If you work hard anyway you may be about to start a great career.
