Is there a minimum amount(or even specific amount like some coins?) to begin staking?
What is the POS schedule? Will staking be available directly from the QT?
Almost answered my own questions...almost.
From the proofofstakepools website:
"CAUTION The minimum block size for deposit of Thunderstake is 1,000. Any deposit smaller than 1,000 will be considered a donation to the website. The bonus coin for Thunderstake staking will be the Mining Partners Token (MPT). It is an ERC20 token traded on the decentralized platform (ForkDelta). To trade and transfer this token you will need to create an Ethereum wallet thru (MyEtherWallet, or MetaMask)."
