something strange, I see 2.73835187 block reward. I thought it shouldn't go below 3xmg
We have put decimal and allowed reward to reduce further, someone raised the 3xmg concern; we give the < 3 XMG a long reduction tail: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.10083467

so I am wondering those people are likely uncomfortable with the hard fork and the new form of PoW and PoS-II?  Sad ....

What has actually been changed? (in a few words please)


Very little.

The POW (mining) algo has not changed. The block reward system has been tweaked to smooth-out wild fluctuations in the difficulty and to allow for steady future growth. The maximum and minimum block rewards are still 50 and 3 respectively. I liked POW pretty much as it was, but now it is actually better. When the big miners finally get the message that throwing more than about 250 Kh/s at this coin is counter-productive, we should see the return of larger block rewards and it will be better for everybody.
Still not convinced by this one... If you decrease by a factor 2 your hashrate, you will most likely end up with 2x less coins...

Sorry mate but that is "Bitcoin" thinking Cheesy

This is XMG Magi and you need to work smart, not hard.

Let's do some back-of-a-cigarette-packet calculations:-

Assume that for every 1 Kh/s you generate, you can earn 0.04 XMG per day.

(This is realistic even with the current low block rewards at a rough average of 3 XMG).

Thus, with a rig generating 250 Kh/s you can generate 250 x 0.04 = 10 XMG per day.

Similarly, with 2.5 Mh/s you can generate 2500 x 0.4 = 100 XMG per day

So, if all the miners currently hashing away at greater than 250 Kh/s decided to slow things down to just 250 Kh/s voluntarily, it would shave something like 20 Mh/s off the total network hashrate. and bring that down to the "sweet spot" around 22 Mh/s.

When that happens, something magical happens. The block reward goes up to 50. Let's say it goes up from an average of 3 to an average of 48. That is a factor of 16 times bigger.

So, mining at 1 Kh/s now generates 0.04 x 16 = 0.64 XMG per day - that's better Smiley

Mining at 250 Kh/s now generates 10 x 16 = 160 XMG per day - that's magical! Cheesy

OK so run that by me again ...

Running a rig at 2.5 Mh/s generates 100 XMG per day (give or take)

If nobody runs a rig at greater than 250 Kh/s it will generate 160 XMG per day (give or take)
and the rig running at 2.5MH/s would get 1600xmg/day ....  Grin
that's why it will never work because there is hope to get that in case some "other" big miners give up  Grin

everybody is fine with reducing hashing power as long as it isn't their hashing power  Grin

Looks like your wallet just starts staking? any transactions recently? That's the reason showing insufficient weight; notice that the expected time is never accurate.

The actual expected time to earn PoS rewards is about 2-3 days for coins 100 XMG or so under current network weight. It's better to stake all of your coins together; you can do so by sending all to an address. You can close your wallet then and keep it offline; be sure to check back the status for example, 1 day later, the stake weight and expected time to earn rewards (just estimate). You will receive interest for sure.

It's not that much benefiting though by staking 110 XMG though (this is also for security considerations, just imagine other people/network can get interests far more than you), but you don't have to remain the wallet online, just check it from time to time. For better result, storing more coins like 500 XMG will get you rewards in less than half day (in this case better to be online more often to ensure rewards received).

Rules: Don't send coins during staking, or stake time will be reset. Don't keep the wallet offline for more than 5 days in any circumstance, or you need to reset the stake time.

Thank you for the wide explanation! It gives me some ideas on what to do next Wink
I was away for holidays and my wallet was offline until some point this week, when I also updated it to the newest version.
I didn't do transactions with that money foe quite some time, so the "don't send coins" doesn't apply.

Sounds like not sufficient stakeweight. How much balance in your wallet? What is your "stakeweight" from the output of getmininginfo?

Also follow this for best staking:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.10016863

Move coins to another wallet, and send back to the staking wallet, split them into different transactions.

Stackweight: min 0 , max 0, combined 0
Balance: about 110 XMG - yeah, pennies, I know. But before I got ~ 0.02 XMG/day of this.
Maybe I'll just give up...

Staking not working for you?
If you have some coins on exchange just sent it to your wallet.
Think Staking works better with more coins in your wallet.
You can give it a change!

Not such a smart whale if it was one, more like a panic sell by someone needing to cash out.
However, those of us who were smart enough to buy, have already seen the value of their XMG purchase increase.

You right! Think it might be a P&D action.
Some people who panic will sell. New people will buy.
You never know it advance but one thing is clear Magi will show something Magical! Wink

betasharex is based on the scam coin exchange sharex (sharecoin), they disappeared with all people fund.
I can't believe that anyone trust an exchange which looks exactly the same and has the same name apart from the "beta" part.

Thanks for the heads-up. I lost enough coins to buy a can of beer. I am not a big drinker so I will not be losing any sleep over it. Karma.

Since the hard fork my wallet doesn't want to PoS.
Either gives me a lot of days (at least 100) until next income, either tells that I don't have mature coins.
Is it a bug or it's something I've missed?

That's quite right from case mining point of view in a short term when the overall situation doesn't change much. We can imagine a few instances:

# Block rewards 50 XMG, people tend increase hashrate
# Block rewards 0 XMG, people tend to quit mining
# At stable condition, for example, with 1000 miners and 10 XMG block, the network is gonna be strong; for example, one firing up his farm 10 Mh/s will push block rewards to 0 XMG, that means, when he joins in, he get 0 XMG; back to normal value when he exits. That's an interesting thinking.
# In a case where we have generic miners and big farms too, with block rewards 10 XMG; each miners just do their own job, think about the situation that we have more generic miners joining in.

The above are saying under ideal situations. The practice could be that some people have the advantages of free electricity, or having a better miner, etc, but the general direction along which the rewarding system works is right.

All mentioned by Spexx are perfect summary of this fork except that we don't really put the minimum limitation now. Someone mentioned that minimum of 3XMG could be the cause of the big miners' sticking around for example what if XMG sockets up hugely, that's a valid point though unlikely.

I do like PoS-II; the PoS does have a stable payout as I can see. XMG is also simply rejected by pool staking, that actually could cause security issues to PoS.

The POS II has been tweaked a bit to discourage very large holdings in a single wallet and to encourage sizeable transactions. I like POS II. My net earnings from POS mining have not changed since the hard-fork.

From my point of view anyway, it is much the same as it was, only better. You still have to work smart, not hard. I love this coin Smiley
