Should post on FB forum as well (different public from Bitcointalk forum, might appeal)

EDIT: This could be sped up by getting more 1.5 wallets on 2.0.5.

Can someone clarify how staking really works and why I am getting weird numbers in the spendable tab?
For some reason I have 0.514 ''spendable'' slr even though my stake is a lot more than that.
Shouldn't I be able to spend the coins I already had before block 830000?
I'm worried that my wallet file got corrupted.. My total balance is fine , only the spendable is displaying 0.514 SLR even though there is no transaction for that amount. I have no idea why it's keeping those 0.514?
Is everything fine with my wallet or do I need to reload it from a old backup wallet.dat file?

The old coins are being staked.  If you need some coins to be set aside to spend, set your Reserve Balance in Setting->Options.

Thanks for the clarification.
And thank you for your hard work Smiley
Could you help me find out if I have done something wrong?
Before I installed 2.05 I deleted my Solarcoin folder in %appdata% ( I obviously kept my wallet.dat file) and uninstalled solarcoin.
Then I restarted my computer and installed 2.05
It looks like the wallet is now using way less cpu power.. however I'm not sure it's working the way it should for me
I haven't found any blocks since version 2.04 with a rather large stake, so I just wanted to double check if it's all fine...
This morning it said: time to earn interest: 4 hours. As time went by this number kept growing and now it says 1 day.
Shouldn't I be finding more blocks considering I have over 300k slr? Smiley
Thx


It sounds like it is working.  When your coins staked earlier, the coin age was reset, so they have to now earn coin age > 8 hours before they will stake again.  Also, as is my case, the coins have to have a minimum of 500 confirmations to stake, which is taking longer than 8 hours with our current block rate.  i don't expect to earn any interest for another 203 blocks (probably another 10 hours at this rate).

Hi does the PC need to be on 24/7 to stake

Yes it does need to be run 24/7

But just turn off your monitor to save $

Yes, technically, you cannot stake if you don't run your wallet. Wink

No, but the rewards are greater for those that do, and the network is stronger when everyone stakes.  It's really quite similar to mining, but much "greener".

With 2.0.5, both the bootstrap and the wallet updates are downloaded from the dedicated server now.  My update went fast and smooth, and worked as originally intended.

Those of you that had CPU issues, can you confirm any relief in 2.0.5?  (Not during startup or syncing, but while staking.)

How much in being "staked"? Staked coins are not available until the stake reward is confirmed. Currently it takes 510 confirms.


I sent you a PM with the numbers... Thx for the info!
