I'm not sure about staking at all. I've got 20 odd clams in wallet 3500+ confirmations. I have 0 clams staked...I just leave wallet online.....am I missing something here?
Do you have your wallet unlocked? Make sure the "For staking only" checkbox is checked. Other than that, how many peers do you see when you hover your cursor over the signal bars icon?
Both good questions.
1. Go to Help -> Debug Window -> Console, then type "getstakinginfo". What does it say?
2. Hover the up-pointing arrow at the bottom right corner of the CLAMClient. Is it green? Does it say Staking?
3. Be careful to use 'coin-control'. It can be turned on in the settings. Or else sending a small amount of coins could reset the age on a larger pile.
4. Is the chain in sync? What does it say for "getblockcount"? Do you have peers?
