1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] ❤ Medic Coin ❤ Folding@Home GPU Mining Masternode Coin on: May 04, 2018, 10:24:34 AM
Hi, I like this coin and I've just started folding with my gpu to give it a try. I've also installed the wallet and encrypted it on my linux rig which reboots once in a day. My question is: is there a way to auto-unlock the wallet only for staking at startup? thanks (sorry for my english)

Why does it reboot once a day? My linux rigs never reboot and they fold just fine Smiley

I am not sure.  I think his VPS rebooted once a day by design, not the fault of the wallet.  

It's not a vpn, it's a real pc in my house  Cheesy I have some issues with my internet service provider (connection where I live is not that good), so I compiled a script that recognizes losses and reboots the machine. It can happen at any time, at least once a day, mostly when I sleep, so it's a bit annoying not staking for hours. I see that gridcoin has an auto-unlock feature on its wallet so I just ask if the same thing was possible  Smiley thank you
You can buy a static IP from your ISP or buy a VPS. VPS is stable and cheap. Do a math for example: if you missed a staking reward of 39.8 MEDIC, you will lose 39.8 x $0.15 = $5.97 while a VPS plan just cost $5/month. MEDIC will go to the moon soon so you will lose more than you think if you still stuck with dynamic IP. I had experience with power outage and same problem with your ISP a few times and finally decided to move my wallets to VPS for staking. Vultr offers maximum of 2 instances at $2.5/month on some datacenters eg Miami. You can give a try Vultr or other VPS providers eg DigitalOcean or Linode, they all are good and stable. You can run multiple wallets on a VPS plan as well, it's working for me very well.
I already have a static ip, it's just that I live in the country and I use a wifi antenna-dish on the roof because there's no cable internet here. the first radio bridge is at 4km away so the connection it's not very stable. Thank you for your suggestions, but I personally prefer not to buy a vps, I've only one rig so I don't want to waste money. I'm returning to gridcoin because the wallet auto-unlock feature at startup is just perfect for my needs. thank you again

Thank you for using your gpu to contribute to science.  There is no auto unlock because that is the same as not locking the wallet.  So the solution is not to lock it in the first place.

I see the icon saying "wallet is encrypted and currently unlocked for staking only". I thought there was an option to automate the unlocking process at startup
