RE: Gridcoin setup flowcharts
Hey thanks for the reply. I have encrypted my walled and chose unlock from settings menu but not sure how to make the staking arrow turn green. Here is a screen shot, and should it say investor or "pool" for the project?:
Thanks for your help!
If you put your mouse over it, it will tell you why it isn't staking. I believe you need a minimum of 1 coin to stake, so that's probably why.
It is supposed to display as investor, because from the wallet's perspective you're just an investor and you receive coins sent from the pool.
Ok I will will wait until I see what happens when I get 1 GRC. When I mouse over the arrow it says "not staking". The lock icon is a bit confusing. right now it show shows a close lock and if i hover over it it says lock wallet so i assume it is unlocked. I needed to input my pass phrase to unlock it. Is this correct?
Yes, that is how you unlock your wallet.
You got stake weight of 15 (bottom line). That means you are staking. The staking icon lags up to 30 seconds. Minimum to stake is 0.08 GRC in any UTXO.
Ok thanks I just checked and it green now but it says estimated time to earn a reward is 1678 days! lol over 4.5 years ha ha. Not really sure what that means though.
Now that I have the staking icon green should I go back and lock and unlock the wallet again but have the box ticked "for staking only" or should I keep the wallet fully unlocked at all times?
Cheers!
