Some picks are still valid
FTC - great entry price, pure waiting game now
NXS - good to rebuy now, nice correction from 90k to sub 40k
UIS - good to buy
TZC - looks as killer staking machine now, buy few millions and stake for years
How does the TZC staking works?
TZC has PoW and PoS with PoW beeing 67% and PoS beeing 33%.
In other pos coins you get an % annual interest per year. So the reward varies when you get an block. Most of the time in those coins, you open the wallet once or every two months wait for the block and thats it.
With TZC and its 0% ann if you get a block you get the full block reward of 100 coins. So with running it 24/7 you have more chances to get a block and as more people are running the wallet this also hugely supports the network itself.
Of course the amount of blocks you get per day/week depends on the amount of coins one has, the pos difficulty and a little luck.
It works also this way that not only holders with million coins get only the reward. Depending on difficulty and how many blocks per day or week you wan't, you'd need a minimum of coins.
Basically:
You have to let the wallet run open for staking.
Every input/transfert starts staking and gets weight after 1 day with the max beeing 16 days. After that inputs don't get more weight.
If an input is rewarded it's age is resetted to 0 and starts anew.
The wallet also splits and combines the coins automatically (values can be defined in a range in the config) after each block reward.
What seperates an holder with million coins and one with less is the amount of blocks per day. Even those million holder can be unlucky and get less and one with less coins get a little more than expected.
So it's like solo gpu mining just with your coin age beeing the hashrate.
You don't need a massive pc for it, like a raspberry pi is enough or an intel nuc if you already got it.
Hope I wrote it clearly.
There is more indepth info in how exactly it's working in slack and the forum.
Of course I'm also in it.
Nice growing and helpful community, love the system and has a bright future coming.
