Hey all!

I'm having troubles finding a list of good coins for staking. I know you can stake WAVES and that it's a serious project (don't know about returns though) but most other topics I come across when looking for coins to stake seem to lack professionalism. Could it be that staking in general is not very much supported by the community? Everybody is so crazy about investing in ICOs and setting up mining rigs that consume a ton of energy, that the easiest way of generating a profit is overseen, it seems. What do you think?

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

POS coin = piece of shit coin


Basically  they are much like a bank or a bond. 

They do not pay high interest.

Worse yet they have no backing most banks and bonds have insurance.


A gpu backed coin  if all fails you still have a pc with good gpus.
I did a lot with PPC  a 50-50 coin pos and pps combo.

I had 2000 coins staked and was waiting for my first interest so to speak.

My wallet was on a mac.  I was due 20-40 coins.
They insisted  we upgrade to new wallet or lose all coins.
The wallet upgrade would re set clock for my ppc payout od 20-40 coins

worse they only had a windows update  ready leaving me on the hook with my mac wallet

I complained on their official website and with under 2 days to the deadline  still no mac wallet up grade

I sold the coins and never looked back.
oh and with 16 hours left to the upgrade  deadline they offered the mac upgrade

It still would have re-set the interest on my 2000 coins.  I would say no one should want to own or invest in a POS coin.  But this is only one story.
