I am a bit confused.  Why would someone want to mine Atlas credits?  If you
need a million, or ten, just ask, and people send you hundreds of millions
in minutes.  By the time I see the message, the demand has been
oversubscribed, and I lose out on all the good karma of donating.

Or is there a way to convert these credits into crypto tokens, in which
case please do tell me.

What is the problem that we are solving?
