I am afraid there is still an issue with staking. I am holding 27M ESP and the wallet says: next stake in 15 (or 30) minutes. But: nothing happens.
One time staking was happening, the 27M were blocked for one day and I got arround 40.000. It seems to work, but there is still an issue.
Right now, I am also staking stratis and blackcoin. Meaning, I know the procedures.
There is no issue. See what I wrote yesterday:
Sorry there are so many questions (which are always the same questions, again and again btw.), I cannot answer everything. Maybe we can set up a help desk system for the community to track questions and help each other? Does anybody have the required resources for this?
Until then, just read the past 10-15 pages, and chances are that your question is answered somewhere already. Here is a summary:
- Yes the "expected time to reward" is wrong, try multiplying it by 1000 or so.
- It can take weeks until you get your first stake, depending on your balance. One solution could be to split your funds to many different addresses (or inputs to be exact).
- For network errors, check your ports and add more nodes
- For all other problems, try resyncing from scratch and use a bootstrap for it
From what I have heard, there is also a Wiki or FAQ in the works somewhere ...
Actually, the ESP wallet has 16 connections. Would it help the network to increase it to 32 / 64 ? How to do that ?
IIRC there is a connection limit on Windoze systems. But having more connections doesn't increase you stake probability, only the network stability.
