This reward is based on a rolling average of your credit on BOINC projects called RAC (recent average credit), which means it will "ramp up" when you start crunching and "ramp down" when you stop. It will take approximately <i>two weeks</i> to reach your maximum average daily reward. There are two ways to claim your rewards: an MRC request or staking a block. </p>
