Yes, you should dump and dont let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

interesting method, never saw a wallet having some sort of ass implemented.
could anybody clarify how's that if i have matured coins (with weight),
then close the wallet, open it after several weeks, and coins ain't matured, no weight.
is that normal for nobl ?

The primary purpose of providing interest to coin holders is to secure the network. POW coins have miners connected to and securing the network. Because POS coins dont have miners, paying interest incentivizes holders to keep their wallet open. The more wallets are open on a network, the more distributed the coin is, and the likelihood of any one node taking over the network with a 51% attack is greatly reduced. Once you open your wallet and unlock it, it should start generating again. Should be the same for all if not most POS coins out there.

nope, it's not the same, to date it's nobl only in my practice
wallet was closed ~2 weeks ago, and somehow lost maturity
i don't understand that

It doesn't take that long for the coins to mature again, I wouldn't cry over it

and you were wrong.
those coins that underwent conversion process, with old private keys,
unmatured and refused to switch back on to staking.
so i had to send them to newly generated addy, and now it's ok, will watch

The reason is each time minting happens successful transaction is split into two halves. This way there is more competition between wallets which helps to secure network. However the drawback is you will have smaller and smaller transactions as time progresses which will be generating less interest. What you need to do is to merge many small transactions into one bigger (e.g. around 2 mil but anything in region 1-3 mil is reasonable) and send it to yourself. It is good idea to repeat this from time to time when you notice earning less.
