Can someone explain staking to me? I think I understand the concept, but I'm not sure how or if it's working.
I put a bunch of XST in my wallet - I hover over the icon in the bottom right and it shows that I'm 'minting' and gives me an estimate of when I'll see a reward.
It said about 14 hours. After about 5 days, I received some coins - I understand it takes three days before the coins are 'mature'.
However, since then, the 'weight' of my minting has gone down to 8, and it's estimating over a thousand days before the next reward.
Throughout the entire process, the 'stake' figure has read 0.

Can someone shed some light on this for me?

Thanks
