I have a few noob questions, apologies in advance if they're seen as dumb, noobish, and/or lazy...
- Is there any way to participate without the synced wallet on a PC? i.e., is there an official android wallet?
- Anyone know approximately how much data would be used in setting up the wallet on a PC?
- Do you know how long it takes for the wallet to sync?
- To participate in Air Drop, does my wallet have to be left on 24/7?
Thanks in advance, any help / insights are greatly appreciated!
Even with ONIONS in your wallet there is no guarantee that you will qualify for the airdrops. I have ONIONs staking in my ONION wallet now in an effort to get my minimum number of ONIONS noticed by the status check. It continues to say "skipped" not enough ONIONs even though I have had a minimum of 50 ONIONs threre and in a previous wallet Maybe I need to wait for the next week's air drop for the status check to update.
To answer your questions:
1) Use the ONION wallet it works well for me (although I am new to using it).
2) I did not notice a large amount of data being used up after installing the wallet and syncing it
3) My wallet took under 3 hours to sync. After I transferred ONIONs to my wallet it took 10 hours for them to mature and be seen and staked.
4) No the wallet doesn't have to be on 24/7 but needs to be on when DeepOnion checks the status of the wallet the day before the airdrop for the minimum amount of ONIONS. If you are offline then your ONIONS will not been "seen" by the status check.
Hope this helps (correct me if I am giving the wrong advice).
