here's his wallet ...
My question is, Is there a minimum amount of btc2 to stake? as stated on the main website stated "Only a minority of the coins in circulation are being staked at any given time so you do not need to own a lot of Bitcoin 2s to be able to get block rewards."
I see that the staking status icon at the bottom right appears grey. It should at least sometimes turn green while staking. To make sure that he is staking, check tools - Debug console and type: getstakingstatus. (All values should be true like so:
{
"validtime": true,
"haveconnections": true,
"walletunlocked": true,
"mintablecoins": true,
"enoughcoins": true,
"mnsync": true,
"staking status": true
}
And while 1 BTC2 is technically enough to stake, for him to get the block reward of 0.6 BTC2 he would get 60% ROI and cannot expect that to happen every few days. With a low balance it takes a lot longer to earn block rewards. It's like a lottery and he only has one ticket. My guess is that right now it would take him at least 15 days to get that 0.6 BTC2 reward averagely speaking, but due to the randomness it can happen much sooner or much later.
And then after he creates the first block, with his 1.6 BTC2 balance he would have 60% higher chance to get the next reward, and so on.
He have:
"validtime": true,
"haveconnections": true,
"walletunlocked": true,
"mintablecoins": false,
"enoughcoins": true,
"mnsync": true,
"staking status": false
now how to enable that sir?
He should try to restart the wallet, wait five minutes and check again. Most likely this will fix it. (He probably started the wallet before he had a mature staking balance).
If that doesn't help, check transactions and hover over the 1 BTC2 transaction to see if it is fully mature with 101 or more confirmations (there should be a checkmark next to the transaction). Also check Tools - Information and Current number of blocks should be higher than 29888 (if not, then he is not in the right chain).
