Prelude.io has BC/USD market, which will help BC decouple from BTC price. Let's do it guys and gals! Go over there and show some support. It will only help BlackCoin grow even further!

The network tries to produce one block per 10 minutes. It does this by automatically adjusting how difficult it is to produce blocks.

Soepkip, if coinkite will name us BLK, wouldn't it be better for other exchanges to adopt to this name? I can imagine new investors could get confused when they'd want to buy BLK but can't find that on the exchange? Well, adopt to one shortcut overall, anyway?

How exactly does the Staking work and do you need to keep the wallet open constantly to get your share? Or can you just open the wallet every now and then and let it update to "your stake"? Is it better to keep it open constantly or it doesn't matter?

Looks like the pump to 19k has stabilized somewhere between 15.5-16.5k...

So what is the reason that litecoin got up to prices above 10 dollars? Cozz now I See no reason why blackcoin can't do this aswell.. Seeing as its on coinkite next to litecoin soon.. Litecoins will face asics people will turn to blackcoin? hmm
It was tied to BTC value explosion in Nov 2013, that is often explained simply "because China". +1 Then what was the reason for PPC's outbreak? Every coin unfortunately is tied to BTC in value, but BC is being pumped. It will follow BTC in a few months, same happened with Doge. Doge is crazy inflationary as it is. It peaked community size and adoption quickly and then community expansion slowed down significantly (I'm speaking mainly about subreddit subscriber count) but there was a constant supply (despite one halvening) of DOGE every day.. In other words - community can't keep up with influx of new coins, it's not because pump and dump, these guys are kinda big and whale-proof at this point. EDIT: and DOGE is designed to be mined fully early next year, 100bil total supply. It's now 70% mined, the community has ~1 year of expansion to absorb 30% remaining coins. I still have faith in them and probably gonna buy more, because such mass of people just make things happen. Their devs were just so stupid to make waaaaay to many coins.

You need to keep your wallet open and unlocked to receive compound interest, if you open it just rarely you will get your 1% yearly interest on coins not moved for 8 hours as your stash will have gained "weight" during that time, but you won't benefit from compound interest. Staking earns you money and helps secure the network but I personally would not do it on a Windows platform, but it's just me, I keep my wallets strictly linux, compiled from source.

I still hate coinkite for doing this.. What makes it that all coins need to have a 3 letter ascosiation. Just make it BC. Or BLC

If you keep your wallet open 24/7, you'll get roughly 1.01%. Can anyone confirm you actually have to open your wallet and confirm the BC before staking starts? Or does it happen automatically as soon as someone send you BC?

THE NEXT STEP:Finally the news from Coinkite, the press release and everything else is hitting home and having it's effect on the price of BlackCoin. However this is just a small step for us, we aim to be the next big crypto currency out there and a $ 5 million marketcap is -nothing-. However, to keep momentum going we need YOU to help us out! We want to get added to more Point of Sale systems and also Payment Processors so MORE MERCHANTS can join BlackCoin in it's rise to stardom. One of the bigger names in this space is Moolah, these guys have things brewing that will amaze the Crypto Community and we would like to be a part of that. Today Moolah reached out to us, if we reach 50 BTC in trading volume over a 24 hour period we will get added to ALL their services the SAME DAY. 50 BTC is not much seeing as we have traded over 1200 BTC in the past 24 hours on MintPal alone. You can make this happen! Read: https://twitter.com/moolah_io/status/455010709479620608Now:Signup at http://www.prelude.ioSent over some BC or BTC Go trade. They also have USD markets! https://www.prelude.io/trade/usd/bcWe are at about 1.5 BTC as of this post. Please make this happen, even if you loose a little BC or BTC in the trades, your worth will go up by your help! GO GO GO Thanks, volume is growing slowly, let's make a wave ppl! Just registered.

You need to open and unlock, the little arrow bottom right reports the current staking status, if it's open but locked says "not staking" or something similar.

For example, let's say I had 10K in my wallet and then someone sent me 10K BC. I didn't open my BC wallet for 1 year to confirm that transaction. After 1 year, I open it would I get 1% of my 10K or 1% of my 20K?

Same issue with MINT, which obviously has a lot of similarities to BC. Just way too many coins. Not the same, remember the dev premined 700 million AFAIK and then asked community to donate, when questioned about the premine failed to account for it. It also had a rough start with UPNP bugs making wallet sync difficult for many people, it has no awesome community where BC was smooth sailing minute one. Literally. I was mining it 4th minute after release, there were no premine, no hickups along the way, rat4 was amazing all times, pools were up, diff was adjusted quickly (1min AFAIK) meaning fair distribution between miners.

And the network (blockchain) is what cointains your ballance, not you wallet - your wallet is just a container of public+private key pairs. Basically, you don't need to open it after receiving coins, but you need to sync it (obviously). Wallet knows your coin age from the blockchain.

Ok let's say I have 1000BC - will this be dilluted a lot if I don't "stake"? As far as I know the number of BC coins is increasing all the time?

If you don't stake it you will keep having the same 1000 BC after a year, someone else with 1000 BC staking it will have roughly 1010 BC after a year. If you have a constantly up device with network connectivity staking is a good idea otherwise only worth it if you have a serious amount and care about the compound interest.
