[deadmanwalking]

lol this is all a scam.. if buys are plentifull... they will just dump through them.

Thanks for chiming in Mr. 1 post. I wonder what kind of agenda you have?

[bjmillican4]

When i opened my wallet yesterday I was getting new Mint from minting every 20-30 min up until around 10am this morning then it stopped.  Is this normal?  My wallet is still super slow and making my pc unusable for anything else.  This started around 8 am today.  If Im done minting I guess I can close the wallet and actually use my pc again.  I cant believe Im the only person with this issue.

You might close your wallet for a while and reopen it later.  You don't have to leave the wallet running to keep your coindays.

I am running a client always with just a few coins in it to verify transactions and act as a peer in the network, but I keep my main wallet offline.

Tried that.  When I closed the wallet for a few hours, I dont get any minting.  It seems it the transactions would be waiting for the wallet to open.  Is this not the case?  If i was getting Mint every 20-30 min with wallet, but none while wallet is closed, it seems the wallet would always have to be open to get credit.  But then the computer is unusble for anything else.  Its an i7 with 16gb of ram.  What the hell could the wallet be doing to hog that much of my resources?

Just out of curiosity, where did you download the wallet from? From the link in the OP? Was just thinking that if it wasn't from that link, it could be malware??? (I realize this is probably not the case, but had to ask.)

Yep, from the original OP.  I downloaded again this morning and tried it on a different pc.  I'm simply wondering if the wallet is supposed to be so resource intensive during minting.  Every time I click on any feature of the wallet, I get "Not Responding" for 2-3 minutes, then the action will process.  The another click, same thing.  Nothing else will function very well either.  For example, if I click a new tab in chrome, nothing happens for 2-3 minutes.  Just so everyone is clear to my question.  IS THE WALLET EXTREMELY RESOURCE INTENSIVE DURING THE MINTING PROCESS?  Also, when my wallet stopped minting today I was curious as to whether that was normal, or is there some other problem.  I don't need help with the math, I'm not done minting yet, but I didn't know exactly how the process worked until tokyopotato explained it.

I'm using an i7 with 16gb ram.  I also tried on an i5, 8gb ram laptop with the same results.  Both running win7 64bit.  To put it in perspective, I can use Windows faster on my AMD quad running 3 R9 290's.  It just doesn't seem like the minting process should be that intensive.  Even a few hours after I stopped receiving coins, nothing changed.  This is my first time with a POS coin.  I just want to know if this is normal, or whether I have a problem with my wallet. A simple "yes this is normal" or "no, you have a problem" will suffice.  I can figure in out from there.

pretty sure its a problem with your setup / network. Im minting since days and have like 20 other tasks running on my pc without a problem. No lags here.

Thank you.  I've been trying to get a simple answer like this all day.  There's not much else I can do here. So I'll limp along.  Just so everyone is clear, I said since my first post that it was most likely a problem on my end.  I'm in no way trying to blame the development team for my problems.  Maybe I didn't make that clear, because it's seems like some people get a little sensitive and take it personally when they think you might be putting down their coin.  I get it, I'm married, I deal with this all the time.

If I'm able to get things going with no lag, I'll post some info.  Otherwise, I'm done.  It's just to emotionally traumatic to try and get any answers here.

try to disable background tasks or try on a clean os, if you still run into problems you have some network issue..

this is just a crappy clone of velocitycoin/peercoin.

it will die.

Here is a sneak peak of the wallet coming up.

There is even the possibility of extra features being integrated into the wallet but more of that later.



www.mintcoin.cc

Scroll down the homepage and look at the testimonials (the team is growing).

Looking great!!
A sugestion: Add a button or menu option to unlock wallet for minting. MANY people seem to have a problem unlocking it...

Bringing this to front. More user friendly wallet, somewhere on here it was mentioned a button for unlocking the wallet would be implemented.

That looks great! Can't wait until it's released.

Been on this thread for a while now, and I've come to the conclusion that the best thing we can do for Mint is make the most user-friendly  wallet in the crypto world.

Here are a few suggestions:

1. Simple button to unlock wallet for minting.
2. Multi-wallet functionality (one for saving\minting, one for spending)
3. Lists of Coin age for different groupings of coins.

Please add to this list. I really believe this could differentiate us in a very meaningful way.

Sorry for the re post, just trying to gain some traction here. My last attempt for now 

[lostmojo]

the pos dumping has started, get out now while there are still suckers buying

that looks horrible. drop the gradient in the background and the beveled corners..

50,000+ mint showed up in my wallet as STAKE, then disappeared. Twice!!!

I have many millions of mint in my wallet and was expecting POS to start soon, but I wasn't expecting it to disappear soon after it showed up in my wallet.
So I am wondering WTF is going on with my wallet that 50,000+ mint would show up in STAKE and then disappear.
Any ideas on why my stake has vanished from the front page of my wallet? I don't see it as transactions in received, but it sure was in my wallet a while ago right below the balance in the stake line..

Any others have this problem?

[bjmillican4]

I'm the pain in the ass that's been trying to figure out the lag time problem with my Mint wallet.  I finally got it to work correctly with no lag.  If anyone else is having the same problem, I hope this helps.  

I did a clean install of Mint wallet version 1.4 from the OP.

I DID NOT use the conf file in the OP, my conf file from version 1.1, or any conf file at all.

I just downloaded the wallet, opened it, and it started syncing with 12 active connections.  No lag now.  It works perfect.

I have no idea why.  I'm guessing there was a conflict of some sort with the conf file.  It worked fine with 1.1.

I hope I haven't ruffled too many feathers.  Maybe this will save some others some time.

I love how things are 'horrible' and other hyperbolic terms of endearment on this forum. For the record, I like the corners. And I especially like people stepping up and trying to make a positive contribution. +1 on effort, style, and cojones Alty!

not to treat you as if you dont know the mechanics, but its my understanding that its only in stake till confirmed than moves right into your balance.

That is normal. It will show your Proof of Stake coins at first, I guess so you know it applied. Look under Transactions. You should see a bunch of deposits from Minting that still need to confirm. They should add to your balance one at a time as confirmed.

Nice design, I hope the devs add multi-wallet.

Please explain multi-wallet.

HoboNickels has multi-wallet.

Multi-Wallet
Support is built into the HoboNickels-qt wallet application for loading and unloading multiple wallets. This allows you to use wallets for different purposes such as: mining, spending, running stake and storing securely offline. In this way you can organize your needs and strike a balance between the need for security, spending and the creation of coins.
