What are the best stake strategies?

Should I keep my Sync offline for a month and then stake, or just stake every few hours?

It varies by coin, but in the case of Sync, I would recommend one large block via coin control, and leave it open. Sync has a very short maturity period, and the POS minting is going down by half every thirty days until it reaches 1%. Right now you want as big a shot at that minting as you can get. I'm recombining every time I stake. The few minutes I lose vs. The increased shot at staking early in the maturity phase is worth it with a six hour maturity.

Coins with a longer period, I pursue a different strategy, and when Sync gets down to 1% I'll probably be doing it with Sync as well. Break your blocks over the period of a week so that you are getting some stakes every day.

PoS coins have become my main focus, so I'm studying how they work with several coins, and there really is no "best" strategy for all. Each has a different character, even with similar specifications. I'm planning on writing up a pretty comprehensive coin control guide, but I'm still seeing how it plays out between several coins before I commit that to the internet.

W just purchased yesterday just over 3 Sync, can you give us detailed instructions on how to stake? My Husband just has the wallet open on his desktop but other than that we don't know what else to do. He closes the comp at night of course. I just need the Idiot's guide to staking instructions.

. Like go here click that etc. Cheesy

We incubated all 3 Sync last night in the wallet so it was one lump sum that went into the wallet in one go.

All you have to do is leave the wallet open.. and once the coins mature.. a day or so.. poof.. they stake.. just keep the wallet open.
