Topic: [ANN] [MINT] Mintcoin (POS / 5%) [NO ICO] [Fair distro, community maintained] - page 142. (Read 1369788 times)

I was not able to work it out with advanced coin control tree no matter how little i select, disabling it allows a max 2mil transaction so far

Could the problem be solved by defining a max amount of coins in a single transaction?

have tried 500k now trying 100k man this will take a long time to migrate

edit: 100k dont work too even 50k wouldnt

edit 2: removing coin control seem to work lol Thanks MarSas!

Happened to me with other wallets. Do you have a large number of small transactions? Reduce the number of coins you try to send to a new address.

Hi guys I would like to migrate wallet but this keeps happening

Any ideas how to solve this?

They could be lost coins. Due to issues in the past, such as mintpal, billions could be lost. That would really affect the % of total coins staking. Some maybe gone forever

That is commendable!! but not enough because again those members as a % of total coins are just 3-5%. I wonder who are the guys on rich list holding such big amounts & invested a lot in coin but dont stake.

This is what i am worried about. A person on #277 on rich list has 50%.

Currently 2.2% of the wallets are staking

I have seen it as high as 9%.

Also please see the latest podcast discussing current bounties and let us know if there is anything else you believe should be in there.

Personally I believe Mintcoin is a great PoS. I have conducted thousands of transactions over the years and am always in awe in how fast the transactions are received and approved. I had one single transaction that glitched about 6 months ago while beta-testing one of our versions and it was fixed and released within a day.

Every now and then I recommend migrating to new wallet with fresh addresses just because if you run allot of transactions the wallet tends to get a little heavy in loading time. (I have done it once and the difference is amazing)

From a technical support aspect I have had maybe 4 cases where I needed development assistance and that was because the operating system was not windows.

I also had one windows case where we found that the windows system needed to be reformatted due to a Windows upgrade.

Considering the number of wallets out there I believe those numbers are impressive in itself.

I have heard the argument of PoS not being secure in the past and after research and testing Mintcoins wallet on a daily basis I personally am not concerned (I am also not a wallet security expert by any means).

Which is why I believe it is important to have an open discussion regarding the wallet and understand the technical security side of the current PoS system. 

It shows the number of clients seen by fairglu's daemon during the last 24hours.
It says nothing about minting / online status / online time.

Btw. next Mintcoin version should get another client / protocol version. It would be nice to see on which version the people are.

You can see who has minted during the last 24 hours by using the block explorer's network page. Comparing today's results with tomorrow's results should give a rough indication how many people are staking 24/7.

Here's today's results.

24/7 wallet also.

Maybe we should ask the community who mints 24/7 ?

I maintain three wallets that I take turns keeping up 24/7 I know there are several other community members that are keeping theirs up 24/7 as well.

Well its not absolutely necessary to be online 24/7. You will still get your rewards if you remain online for few hours but it will take longer to get your reward. Also you have to do something more than just sitting on your coins to get reward. I mean why even come online for a little time every 20 days, just get your rewards for creating a wallet. Current POS system is dumb, thats why i called it rent seeking as people aren't helping the network but keeping coins just to get free rewards.

The problem is right now people are securing the network for few hours or maybe a day when they open wallet to receive their minted block but leaving it vulnerable for rest of the 20 day period. If your wallet is not open then your coins dont count towards the network weight which is like total hashrate for a POW coin. If for a POW coin like bitcoin hashrate is too low then a big miner can attack the network, similarly POS coin can be attacked if network weight is too low. Continuing with the same analogy, if a miner turns on his miner for a day every 20 days and collects rewards that he would have received only if he hashed for 20 days continuously then he is kind of gaming the system. That is what happens when people open their wallet every 20 days.

Just to chip in, keeping 24/7 wallet uptime is not a hardware limitation for me, it is due to circumstances that frankly need no elaboration save to say that they render it an impossibility, even if that were not the case the mere suggestion of having to buy dedicated hardware to leave running constantly is huge turn off, and will be for a lot of people.

You say "but if MINT goes big" however a system that requires constant uptime will be a good reason why for an "average" or "uneducated" user it will not, because most will not care about security considerations but will focus more on convenience and practicality. There has to be a certain amount of pragmatism involved in considering this.

How can you say that PoS 1.0 people are not securing the network, but getting rewards? In order to get reward, you need to find a block, and you are securing the network when you do this. Granted it may be for a brief period of time, since a block on mintcoin is about 28 seconds or so. But you are helping to secure it.

Isn't there a possibility that a bunch of mintcoins were lost? Like the total supply is really a lot less.

Done, thanks again.
