i am wondering if the POST code is correctly set up for staking .
I have noticed my stakes are larger when i shut down my wallet few days than if i let it run everyday.
If the POST code is a way to reward those who are a node for the network, why rewards the same those who are shutting down their PC ? when restarting few hours later, it's like it's recovering with higher stakes those which were not awarded when the wallet was down during few hours.
I believe the code should be adapted for those who are really letting the wallet opened all day long.
I am wrong ? or is the way it should work ? am i alone to notice this ?
Thanks.
I think it's working as intended. Though I'm sure the algo can be changed if there's an issue.
I would suggest looking at your average coin holding period and the nominal interest rate you are earning. It should converge or approximate to 2% over time.
Yes, if one does what you suggest, the algo is definitely going to be proven to be working correctly.
I did notice the same behavior user_fred noticed, but figured out it's only a perception - here is the logic that would explain it:
the algo does give older-aged coins bigger staking chances - and coins that did not stake for a while (in an offline wallet) do appear "older-aged" to the algo, but then after these "fall back" into the regular online wallet staking coin pool, the per-day interest award for the wallet gets back to around the median for that wallet. If one sums up the awards, which ARE BIGGER for some time after several days of being offline (in my case this was 3-4 days), the sum total will be LESS than the sum total of the average per-day awards the wallet gets when continuously online.
