    • The University of Washington did something like this with protein folding. Quite fun, very gamified, but no real-world reward. Distributed computing was pretty interesting as well, with UC Berkeley having a centralized platform (BOINC) allowing participants to choose projects. Again though, no real-world payout, though definitely some cool visualizations.
