Get Ripples (XRP) for Free while using Computer for good.

For those that dont know Ripple is funded by google so here is a quick way to get some free xrp
First Sign up here for a ripple wallet: https://www.computingforgood.org/ then follow the directions to get a WCG login. To fund your wallet you need to "mine" using the program called boinc.


So for those of you who want more free XRP, I would direct you to DigitalOcean:


https://www.digitalocean.com/?refcode=66c41ef7177d
Scroll down to the bottom and put in the promocode first! 
OMGSSD10
You can sign up using your e-mail, a password, a credit card number and this promo code:
(I used a gift card, to make sure it legit)

This will get you a free $10 credit, enough to open one small "droplet" for two month. But you can make 5 droplets if you want too

If the promo code expires check this site out for more:

Setting up a server on DigitalOcean is super easy. After you have signed up, you will be asked to create a droplet.

You will first enter a hostname, this can be whatever.
Then you'll select a size. I went with the smallest 1 CPU server, it will run for two months.
Select your region. I selected the one closest to home.
Then you will select the image, I would recommend Ubuntu 13.10 x 64.
Then you will create the droplet (it will take a minute.)

Your username (root) and password will be sent to your e-mail.

Once you have your password, you can connect to your server by clicking on the Access button and then by clicking Console Access. This will open a shell in your browser. Once you are in the shell, you have two commands to enter:

sudo apt-get install boinc-client
boinccmd --project_attach http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/ <your weak account key here, no angle brackets>
The URL in the above command will not be underlined when you enter the command in the shell.

Note: nothing obvious will happen when you enter the second command.
Now type the word "TOP" you should see Boinc running now... Enjoy


As always, tips are appreciated and good luck:
