keep some coins in your wallet, those coins become your hashpower and they will generate stake

more coin = more hashpower = more stake

No lock, after pow finished, then no new block any more, if the pow miner for two days, then pos will generate fees, then after pow finished, then no new block generated any more, my network weight is bigger and bigger but still no new block

it should start in auto without touching anything, the interest for blackcoin, is so small is not even worth it...
