So, forgive my noobness here. Ive read up on PoS but i'm not sure i understand it in practice. so correct me here if any of my thoughts are wrong:
So, you can encrypt your wallet but you must unlock for minting with walletpassphrase <passphrase> <time> true
-While unlocked for minting purposes all it needs to do is sit there connected to the network, no actual hashing (ie setgenerate) needed.
-after a given minimum time (5 days for V) you start gaining a stake % in the coins which grows over time up to a given maximum
-after the mimimum stake time is there any indicator of the stake gained? I know the wallet has a stake value listed but its been ~5 days and it's
still showing 0. I could just be miscounting the time ive been unlocked for mining, however. So after the minimum 5 days of minting pass, will this be
reflected in the stake value in the wallet?
-How do you claim your stake. I saw mention of making a transaction to yourself?
-Now after typing stake so much i want a steak. Dammit
