Thanks for the replies.

@shaydinblue: I was aware that the peg is active, I was really just following up on the post by BitBayDoc re freezing/reserving. BBD said he was not going to freeze/reserve until after next update, implying he had the choice. I was just wondering why coins were being reserved without any action being taken.

@yshurik: what exactly is the difference between reserved coins and frozen coins?

Doc was mistaken when he used the term reserve/frozen interchangeably

An output in the peg instead of being an integer is simply an array of values. These values say when parts of those coins will be reserve or liquid.
The difference between reserve and liquid are simply that reserve moves slower and must be locked for 1 month or "frozen". Therefore:

Liquid coins move immediately
Reserve coins can move but must be frozen
Frozen coins can not move

All of those coin types can be staked and each one gets a different reward.
Deliberately Frozen Liquid only for 4 months(40 coins)
Frozen reserve or liquid(20 coins)
Majority reserve in an input(10 coins)
Majority liquid in an input(5 coins)

That doc is what we send exchanges ^
So far the PDF is the best visual explainer we have.

As for the "fix" in Halo in the advanced tab you can see the ability to do "Reserve Transfer" or "Voluntarily Freeze Liquid":
The first freezes for one month getting the 20 coin bonus
The second freezes for 4 months getting the 40 coin bonus

Sending those freezes work right now but I overlooked an API command (listfrozen) thinking it should show up in listunspent.
No big deal, just means Halo won't show or stake the frozen coins until I update it this week.

Also I realize BitBay/Halo client needs better documentation so we will wait for enough feedback on what everyone would like to see to help them understand the peg client.

I think the community should definitely organize the docs and materials we have for the peg.
Because, we have a lot of good blog posts, learning materials but our community just doesn't have it all in one place like an FAQ. We should link such a thing on the site.
