We are also, for obvious reasons, changing the stake reward. Also we are very close to completing the wallet.

About stake.... I am not clear on what to do to stake. Previously, I asked about how to stake because I once asked on the old thread of the necessity of keeping the wallet run to stake, and (I said on that post) IIRC, the answer is no, we can turn the computer off.

Someone helped me answering that, informing about the opposite answer, that we have to keep our computer on. And because this sounds logical, I take that I remember dev's reply to my original question wrongly.

The problem was long forgotten until I tend to my wallet again, where I tried to maintain a good time to keep my laptop on, and I can see the "expected rewards is in ... days" message in minting icon. Seeing that the next day the number of days depleted, I got happy and thought I finally can stake rightly.

But to my surprise, once it reached "in 1 day", it stays like that for two days, and yesterday when I checked it again, the days count somewhat turned into 2. At this point I remember that this is exactly the reason why I asked about how to stake, because the days keep going rounds and I never got even 1 ohm in addition.

Curious by this, I spent a good hour digging my post on the old thread, and...

Question about staking here, this is my first time staking on desktop wallet, the other chance I staked was from poswallet, do I need to keep the wallet on amd unlocked to stake them? Or they kept staking even when I logged out nad turned off my computer?

Coins age no matter what, but you have to periodically unlock the wallet to claim them.

I get that I didn't remember wrongly? That my wallet can stake no matter what, and what I need to do is just periodically unlock it to claim the reward?

If so, why does my wallet never gets any ohm?

Staking with small amounts takes a long time to get a reward. Also, do not trust the staking time as it could change as the network weight changes. As you could imagine, Ohm is getting a lot of new people as well as new stakers, this is thinning out the staking reward and making it harder for smaller stakers in getting one. You will get one but it will take forever. This is one of the reasons why we are making masternodes, this will allow people to basically "stake" with a small amount and not get killed by the ohm stake whales. It evens out for everyone. Wink

You will need to keep your wallet open and unlocked to stake.
