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.
