I'm curious about my wallet settings. Do I need to leave the wallet unlocked when I turn off my computer? It's locked every time I open up the wallet and I have to unlock with my password. Will this prohibit me from gaining interest with my PoS? (I'm new to the cryptocurrency world). Cheers for any info
Just checked myself... You are right, we need to unlock it every time. Let's wait for a reply from someone of knowledge.
My wallet is encrypted, but it needs to be unlocked to stake:
1. In the wallet app, click Help -> Debug Window
2. Click Console Tab
3. On the command line enter: walletpassphrase 999999 true
This will unlock the wallet for MINTING ONLY and is safe. Put in your wallet passphrase in the <> above ( your wallet IS encrypted, right?)
Thanks for the info, although I just followed those instructions and got this message back: Error: The wallet passphrase entered was incorrect. (code -14). I entered my password and that happened
