RE: Gridcoin's new stake v8 kernel (in effect at block #1010000, in about 8h; info timeline since: Aug 18)
Hi Erkan!
I've been trying to run a gridcoin staking + mining on a raspberry pi. I at least want to get the staking working first...although I have a lot of the BOINC stuff setup I think.
When I do a
gridcoinresearchd getstakinginfo
it reads out
{
"enabled" : true,
"staking" : false,
"errors" : "",
"currentblocksize" : 0,
"currentblocktx" : 0,
"pooledtx" : 1,
"difficulty" : 34.16102982,
"search-interval" : 0,
"weight" : 15000460000000,
"netstakeweight" : 114650669,
"expectedtime" : 0
}
What does the staking: false mean? Is it not staking? Also am I safe to upgrade to 3.6.0.2 right away? Or do I need to wait until the fork?
Correct, normally via the UI you have to unlock your wallet for staking.
Also, you'd need balance so it can start staking (the !PoS part; since you didn't set it up with BOINC: no !PoR reward would be generated). And ofc, being synced with the blockchain, currently we are at block: 1004302
Nothing is safe in this world, but yes, it's better to upgrade now
Best is come to IRC
Thanks Erkan... I'll do that later in the week when I get home. I don't have a UI, was setting it up on raspberry pi with Debian. Anyway, I appreciate the help.
