I'm still confused about the locking your wallet thing. Is this the same as encrypting the wallet? as on my Coinonatx mac software, all I have is 'Encrypt Wallet' from 'Setting' in the menu bar. The little padlock icon on the Coinonatx wallet software seemingly does not allow me to click on this to change it from a locked to unlocked state. I believe that you can do this with the PIVX padlock icon, but my memory might be wrong on this. Is there a hot key factor to get the padlock to change state from locked to unclocked?

Also, I'd like to know when to encrypt/lock? the wallet in
1) the process of A) setting up for a masternode or B) setting up for staking and
2) When to lock/encrypt? or unlock/unencrypt the wallet while A) 'running' the masternode or B) staking.

Please explain. Thanks
