I also don't see the unlock for staking option. checked the version and it is 0.2.4.9 so that's the newest I believe... Please solve or can you explain how to make it work? Thanks!

What is your OS?

[Vandalay23]

Managed to get it working and syncing but I still cannot see any box for unlocking wallet for staking.
Am I looking at the wrong spot? Please guide me...

Hey Guys,

While yesterday I had the wallet working but couldn't unlock for staking, today I'm having trouble making it work.
Installed the latest version, working good, but as it will take forever to catch up, I downloaded the snapshot, and after following the instructions, when loading the wallet it is just stuck on ' loading block index'

Any advice on how to make it work?

how long takes a pos block? i will send some coins

With the latest wallet, click 'Settings' and then click 'Unlock'.  Check the box for 'Only Unlock for Staking' and then enter your password.  Do that everytime you close and re-open the wallet.

I am using the latest version. And no 'unlock' option under 'settings'

OK. Found it.

First you need to Encrypt your wallet, then you get the option to unlock it. makes sense....

Great

Anyway, i let here link for latest wallets:

You can head on over to http://www.cryptounited.io and download the ecc wallets from the coins section

Edit: Had to remove links as they appeared as suspicious. Better go to the source

Yes, found it too! Let the coins do its work

Can someone explain how the PoS stake works?  Some questions...

1)  How much time do you need to contribute to receive stakes?  How often are stakes paid out? 

2)  What is the typical stake size?  Does having a larger wallet increase the size of the stake you receive?

3)  What happens if you close your wallet overnight, then re-open?  Is your network time contribution saved or does it reset each time you open/close/re-open the wallet?

Did not fully understood POS yet, but i can share a bit of my personal experience in ECC

1) It first took around 3-4 days to get first stakes since first coins arrive wallet. After that it staked more frequently
2) I'm not sure if will also depend on how many wallets are currently staking, but i've seen around 0.0009 per ECC Per day. It means that is 0.09 per 1000 or 900 per million. Not a precise number. Some days more, some less. If you make calculations wont be far from the announced 25% per year.
3)Not totally sure on that one (as also on previous ones), but i guess your coins get older, and they will "weight" more on your side relating to get and solve blocks. I'm sure many people here can explain it way better than me

Let me share a story with all of you to show how ECC is a scam and Griffith is a Bad Dev:

Yesterday i was worried with safety, as if you unlock your wallet for stacking, it would be open for sending payments also, and if someone took over your computer (by presence or remotely) could just send coins for himself and you would be done...

Because of that risk, i decided to keep wallet offline, and that would not help the network, or i would get ant minted coins.

Talk about that with Greg Griffith.

Few minutes later he tells me that he is compiling new wallet and adding function where you could unlock wallet for staking purposes, but to send coins, would ask for password, adding more security.
In less than half an hour tells me to download new wallet, and help me to solve few hiccups that were happening.

Well...

How scammy is that? Does Dev cares for community? I will let you decide on that

What, exactly, is wrong with you? The Dev helped you and you think that is scammy? I suggest you get out of crypto right now before someone else tries to "help" you!

R-J-F , i think i already made clear that i was being sarcastic toward those who call ECC a scam, no?

Sorry if my post made some misunderstood - We are in the same side. I'm a holder and a believer too.

If you see my posts here and in slack, you will see clearly what is my position relating to ECC project and CryptoUnited team

Thanks yoseff ---- is there a 30 day wait before you start receiving stakes or would stakes be expected to be received within the 1st week of owning the coin and having the wallet open?

Why is everyone is focused on how good the dev actually is, when i am having issues to synchronize my wallet, it's not working and i cannot see my balance. Fuck me right?

Because it's working just about flawlessly for us?

Download the very latest wallet from the site.  Download the bootstrap and copy/replace all files from the bootstrap into your ecc directory.
Add the nodes listed in this thread a page or two back to the .conf file.  Re-launch the wallet and give it a few minutes.  You should be good to go.

Yea, sorry about that, tried to delete the message after I realized you were joking but, obviously not quick enough!

Relax dude, it will get straightened out. Take a deep breath and have a cool drink. Good things come those who wait. BTW, reviving a coin as old as this with so many original problems isn't child's play, he will get it straight. Be glad he cares...

Edit: Due to some misunderstanding to the real objective of this message, i am editing it to make more clear my position.
        I am total supporter of ECC since i studied it more deeply almost 2 months ago. I started buying at 1 sat, even when few people were doing it and im holding it.
        If anyone have doubts regarding my position, just read my posts and what i write in Slack or even trollbox.

        Hope it is clear now that my real intention with this post was to in a sarcastic way, towards those who claim ECC is scam, show what kind of Dev we have, by sharing one great experience i had.

Edited to make it super clear

Could it be Firewall blocking it?

Most of people here are having no problem at all... Me included

Wallet 0.2.4.9 working fine 

[rbizz]

Hi,

If anyone could help me out I would be very grateful.  I started receiving the following error today, and after updating to the newest wallet I receive the same error.  The error prevents me from opening the wallet.  It says:  Error loading wallet.dat: Wallet requires newer version of Eccoin  - and then it forces a shut down.

[R-J-F]

Load up new wallet, no coins at all now. Well, .4 coins but not 58 million! Any ideas?

same here, still 10days to full sync, then I'm gonna try repairwallet

[Jaidman]

When will ECC enter other exchanges like bittrex, poloniex?

[dhimport]

What nodes are you using? Mine do not work. Firewall is not blocking, very weird. Can you share other official nodes?
