If someone has a sec and could help me out. I am trying to set up my wallet for staking, but for some reason, it says that staking is not active. Like stated in the instructions, I added staking=1. I've encrypted the wallet, and unlocked it for staking, which allowed the wallet to sync up and download the blockchain, but for some reason it's still unable to stake.
In the config file, when it says
rpcuser=*yourusername*
rpcpassword=*yourpassword*
what username/password is it referring to?
Also, could this be because the balance isn't matured yet? I know other wallets state when staking is not available due to coin maturation.
It takes 7 days from the time coins were sent to your wallet for them to be 'mature' and ready to stake. If you haven't waited 7 days since receiving coins, you won't be able to stake. After 7 days from the time the coins are received, you should be able to stake. You can open the Debug Console and type 'getstakingstatus'. All the responses need to be 'true'. If not, and you don't know what's wrong, post the output here and someone can help you.
