need help can seem to figure out why wallet 1.9.1 says minting 1 days then reopen wallet next day 22 hours and then today it says back to 1 days  ? The estimate is based on how long you'll have to leave the wallet open. This is how it gains weight. So, if you have a 22 hr estimate, then close your wallet, you're going to be looking at another 22 hrs when you open it again. Sorry  Remember, the network is secured by the minting process. Mint is nice, because you don't always have to open your wallet, but when you do you have to do your fair share to secure the network. Hope this helps you understand. Actually, when you reopen it the estimate will change, because your weight went up while the wallet was closed. |

A lot of people are asking about the staking process. The "estimate" you are seeing displayed from the wallet should be taken about as seriously as Nostradamus' predictions. If you have a very small number of coins it is possible you will never stake or that it will take an extremely long time (weeks or months) for you to stake. If you want to stake faster, use coin control to combine your coins so they aren't spread out into many chunks attempting to all stake separately. Large chunks = more weight = faster staking.
How is the shown weight calculated? I know only a single transaction can become coinstake, and wallet searches through all eligible transactions while minting. If I have multiple eligible transactions, which weight does it show, total weight? I believe it should show the weight for whichever chunk of coins in your wallet has the greatest likelihood of staking first. My weight = 11 604 167 Network weight = 52 973 580 Expected time to earn reward = 2 minutes Wallet open 24/7 Didn't stake in 2 days It says 2 minutes all the time.. Yeah, I just found that the estimate stinks |

Cryptsy robbed me some coins too
And how did Cryptsy rob you? We have tons of support and we are a public company..... Contact support if you truly feel your missing coins or PM me here. I did cotact support, they just give me the same stock message. A couple issues: #1 I have been trying to withdraw 1.9 Billion CENT for almost 2 months. A month ago they said it should be out in a few days, 2 weeks ago they said a week. A stock message every time I contact support. I feel like I am talking to a wall. #2 I have a guy who purchased CENT Coins from me. He deposited them to his Cryptsy deposit address. It has been weeks, and they still show pending. Cryptsy keeps giving him the stock message saying they are working on it. Seroiusly? #3 I have a guy who purchased COL Coins from me. He deposited them to his Cryptsy deposit address. It has been weeks, and they still show pending. Guess what? Same stock message as #2. I think they are working on rolling out MN1 and MN2. I know cryptsy is a public company, I am seroiusly thinking about getting the attorney-general. |

Hi, potentially ignorant question but now that Mintcoin is 100% PoS is the transaction time still 2 minutes?
I see that the mining block time was 30 seconds with 4 required confirmations.
Does this change due to PoS or not? I see you get PoS payment every 20 days.
No - it does not change. Mintcoin had a very good initial distribution; Mintcoin is distributed well enough for there always to be PoS blocks on the blockchain every 30 seconds or so. Unless it tells you expected reward is in 118 days lol.... i see the end of mintcoin for me It gives me 20 seconds  Still it does not generate that much, as I have lots of small transactions, I think it calculates on totals. Don't forget that this is only an estimate, generating a POS block is pure luck much like POW systems. Just that your luck is affected by amount of coins you hold instead of your electricity bill How many MINT do you have??? I have 250k and I get a block every 30 minutes. 11 M on wallet, some more on mintpal I get a few blocks every 30 minutes though, 22 second doesn't happen When did you buy those? |

My mintcoins has not started POS'ing. It has been almost 4 weeks.
Which wallet version are you on? When you open and unlock your wallet to allow for minting, how long are you leaving it open for? Version 1.7 I do not have any password on my wallet, the "unlock" button is greyed out. I open it every couple days for a few hours. 1st - you must update wallet to 1.9.1 2nd - you should put a password! 3rd - just live wallet open for an hour and minted coins will come to you I just put a password on . I found 2 blocks right before I put the password on, one was orphaned. I thought I could leave the wallet closed and they would still mint? Your coins will gather coinage on the block chain whether or not your wallet is online. But in order to search for a PoS block with your accumulated coin-days you have to connect to the network. Also, just in case you were concerned, orphaned blocks do not spend your coin-days so you don't lose anything to them. I was not too concerned about the orphaned block, 525 Mintcoin is not much . So basically my wallet will "catch up" on those coin days? |
