I am curious about what exactly has happened. My knowledge of how this coin actually functions is pretty limited, so perhaps someone can explain how the staking stopped and then when it started again it appears to have had a retroactive effect, catching up with at least some of the lost staking. Does this require monkeying with the code? Can somebody at GAW just type this into a spreadsheet to make it happen? This graph section shows the "catchup" staking a bit more clearly.
200,000 XPY created in a single day? Couldn't possibly be an inflation issue....
Basically, there's a set staking rate, higher for primes, but set. In order to "claim" it, you need to "stake" a block, and then send the stakes to your address.
But this doesn't have to be done every day, it expires eventually but otherwise adds up. So if I've got 100,000 coins earning 1% every day, I could do nothing for 25 days, then mine a single block with 25,000 coins in it, or something like that.
I believe it "caps" over 30 days, but I'm not sure.
The point is that the potential for staking is always there, but you need to do a tiny bit of work to "claim" it.
Re Prime controllers can anyone enlighten me This is what I have read in various posts
there are 50 Prime controllers ( or 51?)
15 are hosted by the paycoin foundation does that mean owned?
At least 1 is owned by Adam Matlack do we know what/if he paid for that?
TeamXPY has been "given " some . Are they the same as those 15 hosted by the foundation and how many exactly and what is the consideration?
30 or 35 are owned and or managed by Gaw which is correct?
Those owned or managed by GAW receive a rate of 350% per annum it may be all or only some
Some prime controllers only receive 10% per annum
Some are not yet turned on and therefore receive nothing ( true or false)
How can we identify the total numer of prime controllers?
How can we identify how many are turned on?
How can we identify what rate each one gets?
The income for the Prime controllers is paid daily?
does that income go to the same address which can be seen as the coins in that address will increase or a different address?
the 125,000 coins for each address are "locked" for 6 months but the income can be moved/cashed/spent how can those 125k be locked if others can be moved if they are in the same address.
which addresses , if any, are moving income to exchanges for dumping?
