Great thread & info, thanks!

I've taken the plunge and bought some POS coins, but now I'm unsure how to guarantee I earn my 'interest' for different coins. Do all of the POS coins require keeping the wallet open 24/7?

It would be great if you could add some info on what is required to generate the POS coins for each coin on your list.

I've done some preliminary reading today and it seems with some coins you might be able to risk opening the wallet as little as once a week and still get your stake coins paid, but I've also read conflicting reports that suggest nearly all POS wallet needs to be 'unlocked' and opened all the time to generate interest. I'm not sure how to 'unlock' a wallet, but suspect it might be the same as 'encrypt' a wallet.

This information is critical for any would be stakehunters, so it would be good to add that info in this thread.

Thanks again for starting a very informative discussion!

in short, encrypted wallet needs to be unlocked before you can stake
(if you don't encrypt your wallet, coins will also stake - NOT recommended)

to unlock encrypted wallet execute the following command in debug window
walletpassphrase mypassword 999999

it is NOT required to have your wallet open and unlocked 24/7 to stake

coins age with your wallet offline
when you bring your wallet online with high coin age coins, you stand a better chance of staking than coins on the network with lower coin age

Thanks for taking the time to explain this.

Official Zeitcoin community ambassador

Quote from: Greg0s on March 13, 2014, 12:14:42 AM

I must say the MINT interest is rolling in Cheesy

I even gen'd some HBN yesterday

ZEIT is even better when it matures, I can only assume its the same timeframe as MINT, ie 20 days.

I know is its 25% first year then 20% 2nd year etc

Please add ZEIT to the list https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/zeit-community-knights-ultra-low-inflation-micro-payments-487814

Cheesy

+1 for Zeit. POW/POS with a strong community backing and great dev team. Only 19 days old, mining is still practical and price is low. So now is a good time to buy!

PoS makes sense if these were investments. How does it help these become currencies? If it simply benefits those who hold coins, it would create artificially scarce environments where the price would go up.

POS coins are the way to go for long-term.

Have you ever thought about what will happen to POW coins after they are mined out? How will the blockchain be supported of there are no miners working to process transactions?

Hey guys great thread,

After reading a few posts I was thinking, why don't we start brainstorming and start our own pos coin? We could compare current pos coins and we could gather a community of like minded stakers. I'm sure we can all relate to the frustrated feeling when looking at these new pos coins and wondering what are they really thinking. I was thinking of doing it myself and brushing up on my coding skills again as I am basically free this next year but I think it could be so much better if we got motivated and involved members onboard. Could be a great way to start from scratch, and build a community..What do you think?

Wrong thread. I suggest you copy-paste your text to your new thread and perhaps give a link here.
Otherwise it gets messy here and im sure no one but trolls want that...

All,

Interesting news on the diamond front...
It appears the devs have been at work and they rolled out a new wallet. They say they fixed the Stake.
