Yes, you generate coins based on your holdings given that you've held the said coins for a given amount of time. In this case 7 days. You'll see staked coins marked as "mint by stake" in the wallet transactions tab
So the coins have to be held by the wallet for 7 days before you can start mining proof-of-stake off of them?
How do you actually mine the proof-of-stake blocks? Just mine like normal and it will mine towards both the POW and POS? Or do you not have to actively mine on that wallet at all?
What happens if you do not solo mine, but use a pool? Are you still mining POS?
In linux, how would you check if mined a POS block?
Sorry for all the questions. Thanks in advance.
No need to mine at all. The wallet has a separate, own, miner for the PoS mining.
Has anyone mined a POS block as of yet? I have 10+k that are 12 days old. How do we know if POS mining is working from a linux client?
You have coins that are 12 days old? How is that possible if the release was 10 days ago? They are being mined and several people already confirmed it :-) Stake has it's own difficulty too. So depending on it, you might get a stake after 7 days. And coin age is counted from after it has been confirmed
