Why does my computer sound so busy when staking?
PacCoin POS uses a lot of CPU when staking as it is actually creating blocks when it stakes.
How much will I get for rewards staking?
You will get around 7-9% rewards on each transaction ID in your wallet. The more transaction IDs you have the more your computer has to work to generate your rewards.
What if I am mining PAC? Will POS still work?
Yes, POS is a higher priority than POW so it will still work. We dont recommend that you mine or gen=1 PacCoin as it creates many, many small blocks of coins and transaction IDs. Each one of these IDs or blocks needs to be POSd and staked just like a larger block. The coin design lends itself to an efficiency problem where most of the work by the PAC network is wasted processing small unnecessary blocks.
When will the POS stop?
If you lock your wallet but also it stops if you make a transaction FROM your wallet to another, in which case your stake timer will reset and you need to wait again 30 days before you are eligible to receive a stake for rewards.
