Solid plan and in order to stake please follow starting from this section- (After sync make sure your wallet is unlocked and encrypted with a passphrase otherwise upon unlocking make sure you tick the staking box)

What is staking?
Staking is a process whereby you put your coins in a Linda wallet and hold them. You are paid a return (in Lindacoins) for holding them.
How much return do I get?
Short answer is roughly 70% per Annum. Long answer it depends on how many coins you are staking and how many coins in total are being staked.
how many coins do I need?
You can stake any amount of coins but generally 50-100k plus is considered worthwhile.
How do I stake?

What’s a mature coin?
Coins must be in your wallet for 24h before they will start to stake. As discussed the amount of return you get will depend on the number of coins you have and the total number staking.
How do I know how long it will take?
Once you have coins in your Linda Wallet you can hover over the hard to find white lightning bolt (found in the lefthand bottom corner). It will tell you that either you dont have mature coins (they take 24 hours after transfer or after a stake), or how many coins you are staking and the network weight (full amount of coins staking). It also tells you how long till you will receive a stake.

Is this information accurate?
Your weight and the network weight – Yes
Expected time- No, its a guide which can change completely based on new coins being staked. Priority is given to the largest coin holdings, so if you are staking 100k coins and someone comes in with 1 million, they will push your time out longer. By the same xx someone may withdraw 1 million coins and you will be bumped up the list. Its an estamation at that moment. The way I look at it, if you are returning 70%, it doesnt matter if it is 1 or 20 days as long as you are staking successfully.
Anything else to boost my staking- Active Wallet?
It all began when I noticed that it is regularly written “Keep your wallet active” when staking is mentioned. It felt like the way it was written and the emphasis that was placed on it that there was more to this then just keeping your wallet open. Active to me was different to open or logged in.
The next piece to the puzzle was any time I was transferring to my Linda Wallet from the exchange (as I was buying up), even if it said the next stake was 15 hours, once the transfer landed, within 5 hours I would have a stake, and it seemed to be a much larger payout than the standard.
For example Staking 2M coins returned 6-8k every few days (average 3k per day) Once both coin control and Active wallet was implimented the return is up to 18k every 2 days (average 9k per day)
What I do if I’m not buying….
I transfer 50,000 coins to the exchange wallet. When I receive a stake, I immediately do coin control and 5 hour later transfer 50k to my Linda Wallet. In 24h the 1950000 is staking and will say 15 hours to stake. 5 hours later, my 50k matures and the 15 hours jumps down to 5ish hours. The stake return is also much higher.
I highly recommend keeping your Linda Wallet active.
Unsuccessful stakes
The bain of any stakers existance is a failed stake. You can see this in the wallet by clicking on transactions. Failed stakes have a ? and are not confirmed. This can happen because another block was mined within a quick timeframe to your reward. These are part of doing business, dont let them concern you too much unless you are getting a large number of these.
The only solution I have found for failed stakes is to have a larger number of connections. Connections can be seen down the bottom left of your wallet. The ideal number seems to be between 60-100. If you have for example 5 connections, it seems to take longer to confirm your stake which may affect you receiving it. To improve your connections please see more connections below.
