Long time Noble holder who hasn't really opened his wallet for a long, long time. Have now updated to POS wallet and have coins in it (just over 9m) and wondering how long they need to be in the wallet before they can start staking - or do I need to send those coins to an exchange and back to enable them to mature and start staking?
Can anyone help?
Thanks.
There is no need to send coins to exchange back and forth. General idea is to create new address/addresses in your wallet and then to send there money from your old address which contains lots of coins.
To create new address:
- click on 'Receive coins'
- 'New address' - you can provide label if you like
And in order to send money in chunks from old and fat address:
- click on 'Send coins'
- click on 'Coin control features'/'Inputs'
- select address where you hold coins
- click 'OK'
- paste new address into 'Pay To' or provide its label into 'Label'
- fill 'Amount' field
- click on 'Send'
- wait for this transaction to show up in a block explorer before creating new one
This is the most basic scenario. In order to speed things up it is recommended to create several new addresses and send money to several addresses at once.
