Great job Rob. I had a little issue with easystakebbp because I didn't have enough "change". So I had to do an exec bankroll first. I wonder if there's an easier way to make easybbpstakework. I don't know the technicalities of how locking of the tx works... but it'd be nice if easybbpstake could handle that for me. As mining PoDC ends, how important is it to ensure large aged coins remain aged? I'm just thinking of new users and helping them encounter less friction using easybbpstake and to help BBP grow. Thanks for reading!
Hi Sun,
Im glad your stake worked in the end. Yes, the 'require change for stake' rule was just put in to primarily allow people who want to stake their entire wallet [to prevent them] from spending the last coin(s). For example, if a person only has 30K, and say they have 3 10K bills, if we used that last one for the fee, the last stake would always fail, etc. So anyway yes, there is certainly a way to handle it automatically, as a matter of fact we could probably just generate the change transaction in the easy stake process first, and then spend that change for the stake itself. Ill put a todo on my list for our testnet branch to test that.
In the post-podc era, you dont even need any aged coins really for anything, except with a small caveaut. The coins must be 1 day old to earn the chance to receive the coinbase reward on a utxo stake.
I see our difficulty is at an all time high right now, 9.18! Not sure whats going on with the RX miners. Praise God.
