If an address starts with 500 XC (POS sweet spot 50-500) and then stakes so the balance is over 500 XC, is it no longer in the POS sweet spot for future staking at that same address?

I am not sure if it's the same with XC, but I've noticed in other PoS coins that when coins at an address stake they are split evenly into two new addresses after staking. So 500 XC after staking might become 251.5 XC at two different addresses.

This is not the case with XC.  Thanks anyhow.

I'm pretty sure that is how my staking has been working... so I start with a 500 it turns into two 250's, then 4 125's, 8 62.5's, so on until I coin control it back into a 500 chunk...

If that were the case, how can I track my addresses through the block explorer API and still see the number of coins in each address increasing?

In your first statement you said that they are split into new addresses.  So you have 8 new addresses with 62.5 in each addy?  

This is not the case for me, but I am not using the most recent wallet version either.  Maybe something changed, but it would seem like a lot of extra addresses would be generated if what you are saying is true.
They are split between two new inputs, under the same address.

I have a question, and maybe the answer is obvious, but could it be that alot of the sell orders are people selling their staked coins for some short term profit? Is it possible to have large surpluses of staked coins at this stage in our development?  

Interesting point.  I also often wonder if the Exchanges themselves are staking with client's XCs and selling them? Quite possible.

Edited to add:  One of my addresses has 6432 transactions of which 6400 are probably from staking.  There are only 4880 XC addresses with balances/transactions known in the block chain.

Correct, it is not the case with XC.  I have more than one address in my wallet, all have more than 500 XC in them, and I don't have any issues staking.

I guess I am not a true believer that each address in the wallet should have 500 XC, but rather that the transactions in the address be 500 XC or less.  I guess the only way to tell is for me to generate hundreds of addresses in a new wallet and then send each one 500 XC and see if my rate of stake increases.  That really isn't an exercise that I want to do though.  Sounds like too much work.  Smiley

New Beginning!

Ofc is posible if they mined from begining. Imagine that XC wass once 1000 sat.
I can't explain why a coin like XC is so undervalue. I am going to hold my coins and see what happends.Smiley

Morning all

We're gonna have quite a day today. I hope you're all ready.

For now, a refresher on yesterday night's surprise news:


Thus far we've got:


- XChat


- The TOR Stick



Well we now have...


XChat that connects to TOR nodes!


This is the new version of XChat (2.47g), downloadable now:

- Windows

- Ubuntu


How to connect to TOR:

When you install it, you'll find "xcurrency.conf" in the installation folder that you selected during the installation.

Copy "xcurrency.conf" to %appdata%/roaming/xcurrency and you're good to go!


About how it connects to TOR:

XChat over TOR works just fine with other nodes, whether these are on TOR or not.

XChat over TOR is not as secure as XChat in the TOR Stick, which has its own node built-in. Instead it connects to external TOR nodes. But it's pretty intensely private anyway.




See you all tomorrow for the TOR Stick release...




so Dan just secretly sneaked in TOR functionality in today's update?   Shocked Shocked Shocked
do we have to look for hidden features in future updates too?  Cheesy Cheesy



You still need the tor-browser bundle, I just included a TOR seed node.


At this time, TOR will be kept outside of the wallet, so that TOR can be updated separately outside of the wallet... So moving forward we will keep those 2 software stacks separate.


This update just enables Windows or Linux users to download the TOR Browser bundle and quickly enable XC to use TOR


if you want ONLY TOR connections, use onlynet=TOR, if your okay with also reaching IPV4 nodes OVER TOR, you can leave that out


XCHat has been extensively tested over TOR and you can communicate with NON-TOR users and TOR users at the same time.

Dan


Waiting as always Smiley Thanks for explanation Dan Wink

Excellent idea, I would love to see it in the forum but maybe a BTC talk topic is better for now.

Can't wait for today's release and surprises! XC development has been excellent so far. I am also eager to know about the next PR stuff, I just can't w8 till the world knows about everything we have been experiecing till now.



+1 This is a great idea and I cant wait to hear what the news is today. Excited about the TORstick ISO being released later I'll get a thread going on the official forum where we can all put our XC address in.

Great Idea, guys we can do this too for XC. We just need someone to take step for this.

What I mean is that coins like BC/NXT/XC/DRK who are/used to be super stable with steady innovation that is ALL known in the roadmap are going to have a lot of people "selling" at some point because of the lack of surprise. You don't think you have to be in the coin 100% of the time as it's steady and incoming innovation is known.

When I'm short in BTC to invest in some other coin, what coin do you think I sell first to get some liquidity ? Well these 4 for SURE... I know they are not going to move a lot, I know the roadmap, there usually isn't anything that is going to make the price change much in the short term. If there were more ninja launch stuff I would keep these instead as I wouldn't want to miss the boat.

make sense ?
This is the first explanation about the price development that actually makes sense to me


Hmm... I wonder what we're going to announce today.

(Yes there are surprises in store.)



Again .... Phhhhhhh, still sleepy from yesterdays testing & reading, ok well ... who needs a day job:)



I'm not sure what you mean there.


Stayed up till around 04:20 reading about TOR Exit nodes & staring at wireshark logs Smiley So a little groggy after just 3 hours sleep.
