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?

Or you could just let the software run for a day or so and allow it to get its' digital ducks in a row.  It will eventually make some sense.  'Have a little faith Moriarty' (Kelly's Hero's).

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!

Alright, I installed 2.05 and reloaded the blockchain.
Now it says staking at the bottom right of my client. however my CPU is almost idle, how can I be sure it's working?
it says in sync and staking, expected time to earn interest: 4 hours
In the past I remember this value moving up and down pretty constantly, but right now nothing seems to be happening.
I just want to know if my wallet is finally really staking or not. thank you for your help.


edit: can someone confirm 2.05 uses 80% less cpu power? thx

Steve has put 2.0.5 up.  http://solarcoin.org/downloads/

Do we need to reload blockchain after update to get our node staking? mine doesn't seem to work, reloading the blockchain now...

Thanks for the hardwork how was your trip?

Thanks, got quite a bit of climbing in, and camped with my brother and my dog Leo.  Good times...

-Steve


Thanks for the great work Steve! I am a rockclimber also, mountains are great...
Just updating two of our wallets to 2.0.4
I didn't delete peers.dat yet. Should I still do that?

Nice, where do you like to climb?

It's a good idea to remove peers.dat with this release, as there has been a bit of a battle between 2.0.1/2/3 and 2.0.4. Smiley  It will let the nodes sort out who's good or bad, and restore those that were bad, but are now good.  (That's the "technical" explanation.)

-Steve


Thanks steve, I usually freeclimb in Hokkaido, and Nagano.
Indoor climbing (bouldering) at the gym. Climbing is like a continuous 3D jig-saw puzzle.

Deleted peers.dat on windows.

Cheers,

Cool, do you know Yuji or Akiyo?  They are good friends. Yuji is a legend and owns a gym in Japan.  Akiyo is a phenom world cup boulderer.

This is my son climbing in Japan a couple years ago while filming for the North Face with Yuji.  The Sensei:

So I realoaded the entire wallet with 2.04 and it's stuck on the last couple of blocks,
It would be nice to be able to stake while blocks still give 10%. I have since given up on that Sad.



 i had to delete everything and reinstal 2.04 and it finaly sync basically start from scratch and delete the roaming solarcoin folder under appdata

just make sure you have backups first!

That's exactly what I did! I deleted the entire Solarcoin folder in Appdata/roaming.
Upon reinstalling, I let the blockchain load and now it's stuck.
did you press -file-reload blockchain when it was done?
All I want to do is support the network and stake. I had it working in the previous 2.01 version , and I can't get it to work since then.
 

I rescanned and reloaded the blockchain again and it finally works now!

How is Bittrex trading at the moment? Their own sidechain of wallet addresses?
Or on the ver1.5 wallet?

Or are they running ver2.0.4?

Thanks,
-lfloorwalker

they are not running anything except their trading engine. You can still trade with available funds until they upgrade to the new wallet.
Expect a few more days untill their wallet reopens for security reasons

Thanks, their trading engine can assign an address from the main blockchain and then generate own (external to blockchain addresses, up to n "off blockchain" node or self generating public addresses).
Impressive. I think Bleutrade is doing that as well.

Note to self: it's not you doing it, it's us.
Issue in 2.0.4 (not sure if it existed in 2.0.3, but I think I did see it in 2.0.1, there was no time to re-create, the issue is period-of-time dependent):

Description (no specific numbers, will further investigate if needed):

1. While still in 2.0.3 (re-installed ~18 hours ago) spendable amount started decreasing and staking increasing as expected, total being correct as expected (spendable+staking+interest).
2. Upgraded to 2.0.4 about 10 hours ago.
3. 10 blocks found since then, all in the first 2 hours (until non-reserved spendable got almost exhausted - see below)
4. I also did have a non-staking reserve purposely set while still in 2.0.3, increased it in 2.0.4
5. 1-2 hours ago, spendable was down close to the reserve amount, with some SLRs left to go staking before the non-staking reserve was reached - my intention was to test that specific functionality.
6. I check again several minutes ago, and see Spendable back up to almost the initial balance (but not quite there). As pointed out in 3., last block found was almost 8 hours ago, so the change in numbers is apparently  not related to finding a block
BUT
7. Staking amount has NOT decreased. Did not track the numbers precisely for this test, but it looks like Staking stays at the max number it had reached.
8. Total is now wrong - it is almost double the actual number
The wrong Total number appears in 2 places - in the Balance stats, as well as on the bar to the left of the Staking circle.
9. Transaction History does NOT update to the wrong Total number even when I update it the usual way, so I guess the History Total is apparently CORRECT
9. Number of confirmations of the first block found ~18 hours ago - 103 as of now (time of writing)
10. Number of confirmations of the first block found in 2.0.4 - 72 as of now (time of writing)
I was expecting to start seeing Spendable go back up only after interest confirmations reached the 501 as noted.

Edit: 11. Just re-scanned the wallet, it is back to the correct numbers as of point 5 above.

Issue with unexpected increase in Spendable leading to a wrong Total remains. A requirement to re-scan wallet when that happens is NOT ACCEPTABLE

I just found a problem with my wallet. The coins will never unstake now.

My wallet says 119,000 coins with only 59,992 staked constantly. This has been since 2.0.1 and my first reward for staking was 5 coins. Then it grabbed the 5 coins and 59,992 coins to stake and they have been stuck since that day on 2.0.1.

My wallet got messed up by all the upgrades or something. The power did shut off too so I am not sure if that caused it or if I have to wait 510 blocks to get my coins out of staking since the 5 I got for reward are lumped in with them and can't come out until the 510th block confirm.

I will post some screen shots when I get more time.
