How do you know if your mint wallet is open for PoS or not?

[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.

Added to the wishlist http://www.mintcointalk.com/index.php?topic=263.msg773#msg773, so that the problem doesn't happen for others. I also posted it on mintcointalk.com http://www.mintcointalk.com/index.php?topic=268

Thanks.  I think if new users don't have to bother with creating the conf file, they will embrace the technology faster.  I find the conf file setup is the worst part for people I recruit to use Mint.  A LOT of people have no idea how to do it, and seem anxious with trying to do it.  I usually just do it for them.  The simpler it is, the more people will embrace it.

I probably have 50 different wallets.  I've been mining since 2011.  I spent the whole day trying to fix my own wallet, just because of a minor, stupid oversight on my part.  A lot of potential new users would have given up.  Again, the simpler the better.

EDIT:  I should point out that a clean install is not necessary.  I removed the conf file from the pc with my original wallet version 1.1 with 1.4 upgrade.  I restarted the wallet and it works fine now.  The clean install was on another pc I used for testing.

How do you know if your mint wallet is open for PoS or not?

I'm not an expert, but it just automatically started happening yesterday when I opened my wallet.   I thought it was too early for minting, so I was trying to figure out where the coins were coming from.  Anyway, if you have 20 day old coins, it's my understanding that the process is automatic.

Hi. David Latapie
What we want mostly is android wallet.It is the most important.Hope soon.
Thanks.

I would like to apologize for my behavior earlier today in response to deadmanwalking's reply to my post.  I also want to personally apologize to deadmanwalking for the insults I directed at him.  It was rude and there is no excuse for my behavior.  It doesn't help Mint and it doesn't help other users of the forum.

There is a new wallet in the works.

[litemaster]

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?

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.

gl

Well, until yesterday no-one new exactly what was going to happen except for the mint dev team. So there are no stupid questions at this point.
Stake showed up, but I have no idea if it went into my wallet's balance as there is no record on the transactions. I do have a few small transactions named mined in the transactions, They are very small and don't add up to the stake that I saw in my wallet, that I don't know where it went. Would like to see a paper trail of all deposits into my wallet.

Hey my man, every time a portion of coins is staked you will receive 20% of that staked amount. Now, keep in mind that you will recieve 20% annually. So a stake of 50,000 for a 20 day period should be about 555 Mintcoin if my math is right.

I guess it doesn't really matter.  Just pick the stupidest most non-marketable coin with the biggest premine that you can find and mine it like crazy.  If I had done this I'd be a millionaire by now.

How do you know if your mint wallet is open for PoS or not?

Help guide for the minting !

Open you wallet, if it's not synchronized go to the first page of this thread. If it is, then go to  Help -> Debug window -> console

write this in :

walletpassphrase <passphrase> <unlock_duration_in_seconds> true

where

<passphrase> = your pass 
<unlock_duration_in_seconds> = 9999999


FAQ

1.How can I be sure that I am minting right now my MintCoins ?

Answer :

I don't have anymore "minting suspended due to locked wallet" in the bottom left corner of my wallet. But on the right bottom corner of my wallet I have green opened padlock, which says: "Wallet is encrypted and currently unlocked"

2.Must I type: "walletpassphrase <passphrase> <unlock_duration_in_seconds> true" every time when I restart my wallet? If I keep it close permanently will I minting my coins?

Answer :

If you keep your wallet close it's ok - you are minting , but you must open it every month or so and put the code in the console again.

Why would you think a pump is going to happen?

Plus mintcoin has only been going down so far so its a safe guess to say it will come up during this time.

Hey my man, every time a portion of coins is staked you will receive 20% of that staked amount. Now, keep in mind that you will recieve 20% annually. So a stake of 50,000 for a 20 day period should be about 555 Mintcoin if my math is right.

Exactly. People think they're receiving the amount of coins listed next to "Stake", but those are only the amount of coins that are currently mining for the PoS reward. With 20% reward over the first year, somewhere between one and two percent of the listed "Staking coins" will be rewarded per month. Everything is working as intended.

So any suggestions for the best profitable currency to mine with my 1.5 MHS rig? I really want to get more into mint but it's too hard to mine so I'm looking for something to mine to sell for mint.
