Resolve problem with PoS minting.

Sometimes, if you have big amount of transactions in wallet and try PoS minting,
CPU load about 100% and connections to network constantly lost - it is not only problem for you,
but problem for all network (orphan blocks and micro fork).

I recommend do next:
1 - add to config:  reservebalance=100000 (if you have for instance 90000 coins)
2 - start wallet and wait several connections.
3 - type in console (debug window): reservebalance true 80000
4 - minting was started, wait when new blocks will be rare.
5 - type:  reservebalance true 70000
6 - repeat 4 and 5, and so on.

Wow, I really appreciate what you do to SciFi coins Great work!

I have to try out new version of Darsek wallet. I'm still holding and staking KED as well as some other coins - UFC, OFF, SPICE, NDL I'm sad that SciFiExchange died ;(

[mogrith]

Need to update my wallet. and I'm keeping a few scifi coin nodes running also.

[vampirus]

Info: KED have balanced PoW blocks and stakes weighting. What does it mean:
To set best chain, every block calculated function GetBlockTrust()
In only PoW coins it is just cumulative function log2_work - plain sum of all block difficulties.
That coins can be easy 51% attacked with double spending, if summary hash rate not very big like in Bitcoin or Litecoin.
For protect from this attacker was created PoW+PoS coins. But initially it was Sha256 algo with High difficulty,
and simply copy and paste this function in Scrypt coins was not good idea. All PoS blocktrust was much more then PoW,
for instance blocktrust=134217792 (PoS) and blocktrust=5 (PoW). In such coins one PoS block can override long
chains of PoW blocks. It is coins like Bottlecaps or Cryptobuck. In Darsek KED different system of calculation of GetBlockTrust().
In most cases PoW block  GetBlockTrust() just 2/3 of previous. For stable blockchain every 5-10th block must be PoS.
Otherwise big chain of PoW bocks any difficulty may go orphan by one freezing wallet(wallet with big amount of small transactions
and do not used reservebalance parameter).
