I had a strange thing happen, maybe someone can comment.
I had a MN running on a hotwallet. The machine crashed, I restarted it, resynced, then restarted masternode. masternode status said "Masternode successfully started".
Masternode is running.
I check the next day. The console says:
"Not capable masternode: Could not find suitable coins!"
I look at wallet overview, and I see I received a payment for 59.99+ BTDX. What's this? I look on the chain, and it's marked "Stake".
[ Ok, I think I left the wallet unlocked, because I remember being surprised I saw an unlocked wallet at some point, so I locked it (I think it was this wallet, but I'm not certain).]
Did my wallet start staking with the balance greater than 10,000 (my various MN payments) because I left it unlocked?
And did this knock my masternode off?
Answers to this question would also answer the question "Can a wallet run masternode, AND stake the rewards that it gets paid?"
I think the answer is "no", because I also read somewhere that receiving a Stake reward payment makes all your coins "Immature" for 24 hours.
I probably answered most of my own questions, but maybe someone can verify?
The final question being, if you have a wallet running masternode, and leave it unlocked, will it decide to Stake instead, and kick off your MN?
