What's the methodology behind 'Estimated Long Term Appreciation Potential'?
http://asistec-ti.com/tba/midyear2015methods.htmWith regards to staking, my testing is giving me results that are mirror images of yours, and I'm following your instructions almost to the letter:
I group my coins into transactions of around 2,000,000 coins.
I use the newest wallet version which does not require regular maintenance:
http://noble.ilikebtc.com/NobleCoin-Qt-v.2.0.2.zipI try to stake on regular basis - at least every two or three days for several hours when staking (since I'm using multiple wallets, in practice I average at least one open all the time).
Thank you. My current view is that splitting bigger transactions like 2 000 000 into many smaller ones around 100 000 - 250 000 coins each should increase competition between staking wallets and difficulty, which is bit low right now, will go up.
Please consider splitting your transactions into smaller chunks when you have some free time on your hands.
This is not urgent and does not have to be done in one go but every small bit helps

I find this topic of research interesting and will share more information when there is more data.
Will give it a whirl.
Add: When looking at the top 50 in the rich list
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/nobl/#!rich , it looks like just under half are minting on a regular basis, and really wasting their coin age in the process since those are 7 million NOBL transaction sizes and up (the largest is minting a 143.5 million transaction size and is probably missing out on 90% of what could be minted if that were broken up into at least 70 smaller transactions).
Those addresses are minting in extremely unfavorable terms and are getting horrible interest because their sizes are too big. All together, they add up to around 575 million NOBL. If we could get those people to at least break up their transactions into 2 million NOBL in size, that in itself would give us 287 or so new competing transactions,
and increase holders' returns substantially at the same time.
It's easy to do, and you start seeing tons more NOBL coming into your wallets if you do it.
(First you need to create addresses to send to - it's real easy, "Receive coins" > "New address", but I'll do a real time HowTo tomorrow morning on that.)
