I locked account on my http://localhost:7875/  and what now? Should I have it open for 1day? Or it is enough that wallet address was created and after ~1day when I open it again will be I able to mine?
Do I have to do anything else or for ~1day time from now it is all for me?

No need to have it open. Just unlock in 1440 blocks. U can do anything u wish with ur account, send or receive funds, this won't change period u have to wait.

[Come-from-Beyond]

how to mine?

is it need any special software ?

No. This is a proof-of-stake currency. Unlock an account and leave it unlocked. At some point u'll mine a block. Right now most of blocks r empty (without fee) though.

With some account if I send nxt to another account I get the message "The money is sent", but nothing else happens. I'm connected to other nodes, but the new transaction is not visible under my transaction and no nxt is taken away from the account. This happens with an account created AFTER the launch. My original account (that was created BEFORE the launch) is able to send nxt from the same pc!

After i click in the "arrow" right of my account ballance then nothing happens. Probably couse I have 0.00 (yep?). I would be very glad to receive little amount to see it working.
I see the GUI/UX is still in reaaaaly early beta But fingers crossed ;>

My original account (that was created before the launch) is able to send nxt from the same pc!

What a deadline was set? Wait when it expires and send again. If the recepient is ur own account then repeat the transaction once again. But while Nxt network doesn't work stable it's better to set deadline to 0.05 hours and repeat a transaction in 5 minutes.

U can use my website, but it's safer to use a local computer. Also I restart my node quite often.

Saw it and its over ;]

How does one back up their wallet?  i have it running now and put a few nxt inside, but, how do you back up the wallet? also can you close the computer or have to leave it open.

With mining, if you have coins and leave wallet open then it mines right, but if you transfer your coins to another wallet, does this reset the coin age like with normal pos?

Some bounties were going to be set. I don't details though, more info will be posted on the forum I believe.

It's BRAINWALLET, u don't need to backup anything, just don't forget the secret phrase. Ur computer must be online to be able to mine blocks.

There is no coin age reset. BCNext and Cunicula devised a novel PoS algo.

Deadline does not matter here, because no transaction is created.

To explain it better.

1. I have an account A from the pre-sale with 500k Nxt.
2. I've created a new account B after the launch.
3. I've sent 60000 Nxt from A to B with a time of 0.1hour and it arrived right away.
4. Now I try to send 1000 or 20000 back from B to A and get the message "The money is sent", but nothing else happens. Even if I set the time to 2 hours, no transaction is created under my transactions and the balance always stays at 60000.
5. Now I login again with account A (on the same local client) and send 5000 from A to B to check if it works, and the transaction is created and the money arrives few minutes later, so B has now 65000 Nxt.
6. So I've created an account C, sent 1000 from A to C. It was sent right away. Waited 30 minutes, now I want to send 100 from C to A or C to B, but nothing happens. I get the message "money was sent", but the amount stays the same and no transactions are created.

Maybe the money needs to mature on account B or C in order to be sent??

I see for example my computer blows up, i can just download the nxt zip again, do it all again and open the wallet with my pass and all my coins are still in there?  this seems a way better idea, and also the fact no coin age is great.

[CoinBuzz]

how can we change our secret phrase ?

[shakezula]

So if I have this running locally its mining automatically?

[Sharky444]

Can I create multiple tabs on my browser and connect to the local client with multiple wallets at the same time? If all are open, will every one create blocks (if the account has some nxt in it)?
