Thanks

How to setup staking?

I used this guide: https://docs.google.com/document/d/14jL8KUAiKxB9rBS_Zj-Xc1MmmurpniwGcT-iLZ5na1g/edit

Tried to set "staking=1" or staking=1 in configuration file pivx.conf, but it does not work.

There are PIV coins in the wallet.

I tried with not encrypted and now with encrypted wallet unlocked for stacking, but both does not work.

It writes Staking is not active.

I have my PIVX folder in custom location on external hard disk.

The platform is macOSX.

pivx.conf file was empty, so I tried to add "staking=1" or staking=1.

hmm have you restarted the wallet after sync?
otherwise i have no idea since i only use linux and windows

[nov]

Yes, restarted. What should be in the pivx.conf file?

"staking=1" or staking=1

?

afaik all records in conf all are without "" but in my opinion no configuration is mandatory for staking

not sure if you have the unlock button in stettings menu on mac wallet.
if yes try with a minimal conf file,  encrypt the wallet (think about backup first)
restart the wallet and go to settings / unlock put in your pw and mark "for anon / staking only" option

wait a while and check if staking is actrive
if this is not working you need help from a mac guy. or go to slack for help

It takes a while until staking is activated. Here is an example config

Code:

# example pivx.conf
rpcuser=$YOUR_USERNAME
rpcpassword=$YOUR_PASS
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=51470
logtimestamps=1
maxconnections=256
# IPv6 interface
bind=[2021:19f0:4919:84a5::1]:51472
# IPv4 interface
#bind=216.34.181.48:51472

listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
staking=1

Looks interesting, all the parameters.

But question is did you enter all the information there?

My initial pivx.conf was empty file.

Yes, restarted. What should be in the pivx.conf file?

Of course, i added it for you to showcase what a working config can look like. Afaik, the defaults should work for staking without changing anything. If you need more support, i suggest you hit the forums at https://forum.pivx.org/ or join the slack with it's dedicated #support channel.

My current configuration PIVX.conf file.

Code:

# example pivx.conf
rpcuser=$YOUR_USERNAME
rpcpassword=$YOUR_PASS
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=51470
logtimestamps=1
maxconnections=256

# IPv4 interface
#bind=216.34.181.48:51472

listen=1
server=1
daemon=1
staking=1

Stll it displays "Staking is no active" at the bottom if the mouse is above the up arrow icon.

Expected, it takes a while to activate. Again, hit the dedicated #support channel or forums if you want fast and dedicated support.

Thanks. Now I see the green up arrow icon and it displays "Staking is active"!

Thanks, going to prepare masternode probably in the meantime.

Do you know any ideal low cost VPS provider, please?

well vultr is quite cheap and they had an upgrade a little while ago (https://www.vultr.com/)
you can run 5 nodes for 5 bucks /Month  (you get 5 ipv6 adresses)
but you need some ubuntu, shell, ssh skills.

if want to run only one node and don't have experience with ubuntu and stuff i recommend mp-hosting
http://my.mp-hosting.co.uk

edit there is also a support forum for mp-hosting if you have questions:

Hard to be exact, but you will get at least one reward every two days
The rewards are around 7.2 pivx currently
