My wallet frequently shows my Stake number as 0.00XMG, but if i hover over the icon on the lower right, it will say I am staking, give me a weight, a network weight, and a time. is that normal?
i have seen the Stake number increase every now and then, but it almost always goes back to 0 very quickly

Hi Jediwashuu,

That's totally normal, the staking amount only happens when you have coins that are being staked. For me its once every hour or so - but it used to be once per week before I built up more coins in the wallet. When coins are used for staking - you can't spend them - so its better to not have them being staked so often. The time is the estimate of time before your coins are next staked again.

Hope that was clear enough - if you have any more questions feel free to ask

Just asking, is this normal?

It's been like that since last week.

Thanks!

Move cursor to the top of the price info (BTC/XMG or USD/XMG) to show tooltips; price updates only occur by clicking in order to avoid any interference with the wallet operation.

In theory - the dampening happens as total hash power (for the entire network) increases - so the community as a whole will mine more with less power. Right now there is a lot of hash so the rewards are low - but as the larger miners go away the hash rate is reduced again (currently some larger miners are exploiting the block reward by pushing mining only when block rewards are high - but as mentioned earlier on the page Joe, the dev is planning to improve the algorithm to counter this)

POS reward if I remember off hand is between 3 and 5% which is a good level in my opinion - any higher and there can be a deflationary effect on the coin - there is some more logic to do with coin age and staking volume to allow the smaller holders a larger cut of the PoS - this is explained in the OP in a better way than I can.

Perhaps there will be a future where a smart AI controls the algorithm response to hashrate so that the difficulty is always changing, requiring users to constantly come up with new ways to outsmart the system Wink

Too much coffee today

This seems like a great coin for development into a broader less concentrated hashing network: peoples PCs at work, home, IoT devices (possibly), anything with a general purpose processor can be made into a node.

So you are saying that the algorithm adjusts based on the number / types of devices? Or is it a randomly scheduled thing? Also - there are some big benefits from spreading out hashing power. The biggest disadvantage of Bitcoin IMO is that the power can easily be concentrated among a few, and that can lead to biased voting in the direction that the coin will go (if it isn't a world wide phenomenon like bitcoin especially).

Fair path of development, hardened proof of work. Sounds nice

How does the idea of XMG hold up to the proof of stake type coins?

I am talking about on the exchanges, there's been a spike of activity in the past 24hr and the price went up by 10-15%.

Don't know the reason. Exchanges have there own lives.
Sometimes price goes up because of a Magi update, sometimes prices goes down because of the value of btc.
I know one thing; Magi team & community are very active and working on a awesome future for the coin of the Magi.
We will continue with that for a long long time.

hey 111magic, I am Looking for great coins with group,if you can help me to understand what makes you to hold Magi for longer period of time , means salient features of it , unique developments ahead, and price appreciation since launch.

Hi tangcrypt/TheOATeam,

IMO Magi is a very unique coin - it has its own M7M hashing algorithm (CPU based) and reduces the block reward as hashing power increases to keep the larger miners away and help the smaller miner. It therefore makes it difficult to accumulate large quantities of coin in the traditional way.
My opinion/theory is that as interest increases in the coin, the number of coins that can be mined will decrease due to this dampening effect, I suspect that this will have a very positive impact on the price point. I can see more people looking into the coin these days. The market cap and volume of the coin have grown steadily (and significantly) over the last 12 months and I think the coin is in a good position to increase this growth as there has been a quite bit more interest especially over the last couple of months.

It'll be interesting to see where Magi takes us - I hope you both join us for the ride LOL

I agree, though small miners are capable, concerns remain somehow like the profits; solo mining does sound made a point. Anyway we're looking into rejecting big miners sharply with a more comprehensive consideration of the likability and a solution in the incoming release.

I consider this as great news Cheesy

I think your old i7 are better than my server CPU, my i5 is more powerfull than the intel avoton for mining

I mine too in a pool, pom.m-hash, with the sweet spot controller so the CPU ran only at 100% when the block reward is greater than 12 XMG and the rest of the time he is at 10%.

It's more profitable to mine in pool I think, you always have a little reward but the majority of the time the block reward is 1 XMG, when I look the graphs on the pool there are only 2-3 hours per 24H where my CPU > 10%.

I like magi and the fact that it is designed for little miners with CPU but in reality magi is only profitable to the big miners, they come when the block reward is big and when the block reward is low they can quietly put their power for mining another coin and we, the little miners, have only 1 XMG blocks to mine for the majority of the time.

If you want try to solo mine it's not very complicated to setup, I wrote what I did in this topic for linux, I used a tuto that I found in this topic and just changed a few things. For windows I have an option for solo mining in the sweet spot controller program but I never tried it.

You will not be rich in solo mining, only happy when you find a block

I agree, though small miners are capable, concerns remain somehow like the profits; solo mining does sound made a point. Anyway we're looking into rejecting big miners sharply with a more comprehensive consideration of the likability and a solution in the incoming release.

Sometime no reasons I guess; 111magic made me recall the old time; bottom line some of us are sticking around, and for sure we're looking for a future.

Seems to have settled at a slightly higher price. A lot of people like to manipulate the smaller cryptocoins, some real time marketing of the coins benefits and possible applications would do to make the volume higher. I am completely unfamiliar with this project in general so those types of initiatives may already be underway. That being said, you all seem like a very welcoming bunch - so I am going to spend some time reading this thread and the resources that I encounter about Magi along the way.

And welcome to the Magi Community by the way - If I get a chance I'll drop some notes later about what I think the main USP's are and some current observations =) enjoy the reading.

A price fluctuation like that is very normal for Magi, if you check the market depth you'l see it will only need 1BTC to increase the price by 50% - so the market can be pretty volatile if somebody wants to buy or sell a lot of Magi - the fluctuation was probably a reaction to the drop in BTC price earlier in the day - Magi corrections are usually a few hours to a couple of days behind the market.
