[HYP] HyperStake | Generous Reward Staking | Advanced Staking Controls & Wallet

[presstab]

Have last 400 stake that say created but not accepted , or something like that 0 of 6 confirms in hours

whats that stuff

Yep nothing to worry about. Just click on repair wallet, and forget it every happened! You will still have the same age and everything and it will still try to stake.

ok repair wallet and let working

thanks hypsters

If any RaspberryPi stakers around interested, I've setup github with useful scripts related with HyperStake.

https://github.com/zeewolfik/raspberrypi/tree/master/hyperstake

For now I've put shell script for Raspbian which downloads wallet, blockchain and sets everything up&ready, just put your wallet.dat and you are ready to stake! If anyone willing to test it and share experience it would be nice.

More things to come later (e.g. scripts for compiling wallets from sources)

Awesome job.  Looking forward for my Pi to arrive in the mail.

Expert HYP stakers....

With the increase of difficulty, popularity, and weight does the recommended minimum block size still hold? Do you guys have any particular strategy? I have 12 inputs of 250 HYP with an age of around 21 now and considering biting the bullet and combining them now...

Hello hypsters. I made my first exange today, 15k hyp divided by 3000 blocks, sorry for my english

When they all stake for the first time, I'd suggest recombining them into 4k blocks

Its up to you. Diff is definitely up, but it seems like HYP diff has waves. Some times high then back low, then back high. So they definitely could stake. But if you can't afford to wait then that is of course up to you!  You can see the estimated days for that block to stake in the coin control of the latest beta release. of course it is an estimate, but it is based on the statistics of the network stake weight of the moment.

running latest beta wallet and  successfully staked a 250 HYP block and won't sync now. reverting back to 1.6 stable, will report back.

Hmm won't sync?  Is it just saying 0 confirms? If so it could just be an orphan.

[mtwelve]

I have no clue, I just downloaded the bootstrap and resyncing. Where do I enter in the commands to load the bootstrap? I entered it into console, and it didn't work. The block wasn't an orphan, it has confirmed.

FYI blocks of 4000 are easily my best producers. As for 1% fee for automatic coin control, NOPE.
I hope that will remain an option, as someone mentioned like a manual/automatic car trans.

4000 coins would set you over the 1k hype per month per block limit...would it not?

Ok if you want to give up on trying to sync your current chain, then to use the bootstrap, place bootstrap.dat into your hyperstake appdata folder. Delete everything in the folder except for peers.dat and wallet.dat. Make a backup of wallet.dat just to be safe. Then startup hyperstake through command line "hyperstake-qt.exe -loadblock=bootstrap.dat"

It will load the bootstrap from the splash screen and it will take a while, be resource intensive, and if you are impatient and click the splash screen it might freeze. So its best to leave it bootstrapping and come back in an hour or so.

The limit is per stake.  So when that 4000 stakes, it can only get max of 1000. After it stakes, it splits into two equally sized blocks. And these blocks start aging again and start fresh and can also stake up to 1000 each.

Is the 1.6 beta wallet not staking?

There is no problem with staking on the new wallet. Nothing was changed with staking code.  I am staking a few times an hour with it

Couple of noob questions that I couldn't find the answers to.  

  In coin control I should be looking at list mode and not tree mode.  Correct?  

  In list mode each group of coins has an age, and a weight.  I'm assuming that's the stake age and the current staking weight.  So higher is better for both numbers.  
Also that the weight is really somehow calculated with the age and number of coins.  

OK, I thought the MAX stake age was 30 days.  I have a measly 20 coins by there lonesome that are  33.122 days old.  There weight is 486.  

I just received a bunch of coins and got them in one group of a little over 4K coins.    And the rest of my coins (about 1K) are scattered into several smaller piles.  Some of these are 16 - 25 days old.  

   What is the average time for a 4K block to stake?  

             Thanks for any help.

Pretty damn good questions for a noob

You got it right on coin control. List mode shows each block, tree mode shows each address. I never use tree, don't even see it's purpose, but that's me.

Max stake maturity is thirty days. After that it gains no further weight, but will keep trying to stake and should eventually do it. I have staked ONE coin. Took bloody forever, but I wanted to see if it worked. It went way past the gain.

I've no idea if there even is an average time, I've yet to have blocks bigger than 2K. After my next two stake, I'll be combining into 4K and watching, but it's pretty variable. All of us have ideas and opinions on what the ideal size is, but bigger blocks are more likely to stake early in the maturity period. Not guaranteed. The worry is if they are too big, you throw away some potential as the max subsidy is 1000 coins. So basically, we're trying to find the sweet spot where you hit real close to that without going over in the shortest time. It's like chess in hyperspace

Best of luck, welcome to the community, and if you find good answers, please share!

How does automatic coin control work?

Personally, I wouldn't want to see automatic coin control added.

One of the things that keeps me intrigued about HYP, is the fact I HAVE to keep checking my wallet to ensure that my blocks are staking, then rearranging them to what I believe to be optimised. I could probably say I'm addicted to checking it.
Look at it like a garden - if you don't look after it, your flowers will still grow, but not as well, and there'll be some weeds creeping in there too. I don't want blocks under 1k, (weeds), I want nice strong staking blocks (flowers) to shine through and earn me my optimised interest, and at the same time, compound my interest to give me advantage over others who don't take so much care.

Now, if you decided to add an automatic coin control feature, then why not benefit the community wallet with it - set aside 1% of the S4C going towards the community wallet. If people aren't willing to optimise the results themselves, let them pay for it. 1% is nothing in the whole scale of things.

Honestly though, consider not adding automatic coin control - you'll take away what I see as a big part of HYP's addictiveness.

Just my opinion.......

I think it is GREAT IDEA!!!

I also support this idea. People can't believe that money can come from nothing, and they are right. Manual coin control is a work you should do to earn money, it is some energy applied to some material which produce another material (simple particle physics ). It is also a barrier for those who will bring money in from other economies (ordinary customers-currency users) that will prevent from pulling money out of the coin economy effortlessly. You either consume and spend money (and thus feed the economy), or you work to let the network function (and feed yourself).

Hello HYPmasters!

REGARDING STAKING-
When you are sorting coins into 4k blocks (recommended size?), are you supposed to keep putting them into the same address?
Or the address doesn't matter - STAKING WISE?

PRIVACY-WISE-
I always thought u are supposed to make new addresses for every incoming transaction-- for privacy reasons?

REGARDING SECURITY
And whenever u spend from an address u are supposed to empty & discard it-- for security reasons?

Thanks!

The address doesn't matter. You can do all manipulations with new addresses if you like and if you care about security, but it is not necessary. But there is one underwater stone you should know about if you don't want to lose your coins. It is the keypool size. You can read more about it here.
