the blocks are moving like a rocket we are at 5127 right now.
Do you think we can stop mining or better if wait for a while?

Another staking question. Is it the total number of coins staked that helps the blockchain move or is it the number of wallets staking coins or a combination of both?
Hypothetically if I stake 10% of the total coins created would that cause a dramatic increase in the number of blocks that get generated?

It's sort of both. You can think of coins being staked as hashing power on a network, right now with a low difficulty small chunks of coins are able to stake easily, so there would be no real advantage to stake a huge amount of coins in one block. It makes more sense to break up the coins into smaller amounts (can be in the same wallet) so that they stake more often. Once difficulty increases there's more of a reason to stake larger chunks of coins since they will solve the blocks quicker than small amounts, like big hash power.
If you want to see how the coins are stored, turn on coin control in the Display tab of the Options window and then go to the Send Coins tab and click on inputs, then in that window click on List mode. This list shows you how the coins are actually stored as "chunks" in the wallet. You can send coins to yourself to break up a big chunk or combine small chunks, but keep in mind that doing so resets the coin age, so you'll have to wait 12 blocks again to start staking.
[edit]
Checked the block explorer - looks like the PoS difficulty is starting to adjust! We might be fine without PoW!

I sent some coins from bittrex to one of my wallets.
Bittrex gave me this TXid: 822045cf749b02a06308c0e176e4034dd395ac9666f350153c682f55246b0d47 but the block explorer yields no results when I enter that TXid, and the coins have not showed up in my wallet. Did we fork? Is Bittrex on the right fork?

I just received confirmation from Bittrex that they've updated their wallet about 5 hours ago.
did you search your address on the block explorer? happened to me earlier that I couldn't find it, but magically showed up hours later.
checked block explorer again, not there. I think I sent them before Bittrex did the upgrade. Oh, well it was only 100 coins
Email Bittrex support.
The coins just showed up. That was a test to see if things were working smoothly. I was going to move more coins to stake but I'm a bit hesitant now.
My mistake was not checking https://www.bittrex.com/Status to see if they were on the same block as the block explorer. They weren't when I withdrew, so that was the problem but as long as they are on the same block as the BE it should be safe to withdraw now.

Same thing happened to me. I sent a support ticket and it looks like they corrected the blockchain and re-sent my transaction because by morning it showed up in my wallet.

Nice, just downloaded the new wallet and I immediately mined 4 PoS blocks. It's moving now!

I put my miner to work in Techcoin, I'm hashing right now. Thanks guys for all the hard work, hope we can fix this mess soon.

NEW VERSION RELEASED!!!
https://github.com/techcoinproject/Techcoin/releases/tag/v1.0.2.0
Make sure you KEEP your existing blockchain or download a fresh copy because there seems to be a problem syncing from scratch.
UPDATE and STAKE! Feel free to point your X13 miner at the wallet - it should be able to accept a PoW block, although none have been produced, new PoS blocks have been.

UPDATE and STAKE! Feel free to point your X13 miner at the wallet - it should be able to accept a PoW block, although none have been produced, new PoS blocks have been.
How do I point my miners at the wallet?
You'll need to make a Techcoin.conf (text) file in the ...\appdata\Techcoin directory with something like this:
Code:
server=1
port=57697
rpcport=57698
rpcuser=rpcusernamehere
rpcpassword=rpcpasswordhere
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
addnode=tech.chainworks.info
And then depending on the mining software you're using you'll configure it to connect to the wallet, so for example if you're using the CPU miner it looks like this:
Code:
minerd -a x13 -o http://127.0.0.1:57698 -u rpcusernamehere -p rpcpasswordhere
You would change the username and password accordingly, but everything else stays the same.
This thread has the mining software if you need it: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/marucoin-new-x13-algo-mine-now-kgwdgw-no-ipopm-exchange-570744
The PoS blocks are flowing - I still don't see any PoW blocks but the network may still be majority PoS only and thus rejecting them, or the difficulty is way too high.
so, if wallet is on a different machine, just use that machines address and open 57698

I'm trying to set up my miner to throw my lil hash at it to help, with sph sgminer, with that conf file in the wallet and in the miner all it says is "slow /down or URL or credentials invalid"
I've never tried mining from a wallet before
