RE: Minimizing the cost of gas when claiming EOS using MyEtherWallet
Thanks for the tip. Just claimed my tokens on 17th period.
I'm curious though. Some of the claimAll() do not seem to execute in a loop.
For instance this transaction ran in a loop and cost $3.19, whereas this one ran only once and cost only $0.43, though both used claimAll. Why is it?
You make a good point. My guess is that the claimAll() function will not claim from the same window twice. For example, suppose period #10 has just ended. If this is the first time I'm running claimAll() it will run in a loop for every period between period #10 to period #0. Then 3 days later when period #13 has ended, claimAll() will run in a loop between period #13 to period #11. It will not bother running through periods #0 to #10 again.
At least this is my guess anyway, someone else may be able to confirm
Yes, that is exactly how it works.
claimAllwill only attempt to claim unclaimed periodspseudocode: periods[n] === false
