Hello, I'm not sure if this is the right thread to post in.  I am having trouble attaining enough coin-age to meet the PODC requirements.  When I run exec rac I get this relevant info. My CPK is Jerasadar.

 "total_wcg_boinc_credit": 200949.93,
  "total_wcg_points": 1406649.51,
  "external_purse_total_coin_age": 1322.211203703704,
  "coin_age_percent_required": 0.99,
  "NOTE!": "Coins must have a maturity of at least 5 confirms for your coin*age to count.  (See current depth in coin control).",
  "WARNING!": "The core wallet requires staking collateral to be stored in your Christian-Public-Key (External Purse) to be available for GSC transmissions.  You currently do not have enough coin age in your external purse.  This means your PODC reward will be reduced to a commensurate amount of RAC.  Please read our PODC 2.0 guide about sending bankroll notes to yourself.  ",
  "coin_age_required": 126854.4685661904,

I have tried multiple times over multiple days sending 200k+ BBP to my CPK and I have tried the "sendgscc wcg" command, nothing seems to raise my coin-age any significant amount.  I'm on wallet version BiblePay Core version 1.5.5.1 (64-bit).  Everything else seems to be working ok other than this and I am able to send coins back and forth to SouthXChange.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

Unfortunately, PODC is being retired in about 10 more days, so it might be best to start transitioning over to UTXO mining.  You can still be in the leaderboard and receive a reward for staking:

Just did my first UTXO Stake joined to DOGE.  Should I switch from PODC (BOINC) to RandomX for the actual mining or just let the wallet do the mining in the background?  I promise I read through a lot of this, and I believe that RandomX is still supported, but I may have missed an answer.

You can do both if you want:  RandomX gets you the coinbase reward (about 4K per block but split up in the pool), UTXO gets you the daily DWU reward.

What percentage came from BBP coins?

The Foundation had 2.7MM, and I just sent all of it.

Harvest Finance invests in any defi project with high yields, using ethereum.  They have invested $880 million in Sushi Swap, who might have just changed their code yesterday to default on them.

This brings up an interesting opportunity.  We may want to seek out some of these funds seeking a return on staking with bbp being an option.

Im going to focus on merging in our Ether changes asap, and we also have one related request to make BBP work with Segwit BTC addresses, we will look at that too.

** Tube Wells in Pakistan Fully Funded! **


Thats really awesome, Earlz!

The Foundation had 2.7MM, and I just sent all of it.

Earlz has informed me that the tube well project is already fully funded and has generated about $1125 ($125 over).  We can use the extra money to sponsor 3 orphan payments.

Thank you everyone for your great compassion and charity in this endeavor.

We did this in only one week, imagine what we can do in the future together!

If anyone is unfamiliar with UTXO staking, you can earn up to double per year on your hybrid stake-- if you combine your BBP with another supported currency.
For example, we support DOGE, BTC, LTC, and DASH currently. 

The reward on the amount of the stake is dynamically determined according to the actual participants in the leaderboard.  So right now for example, the DWU for BBP by itself is approx. 14.5%.  The DWU for a hybrid position is currently 29.45%.

I just got around to staking my DOGE and Im posting the result so you can see the difference between a BBP only stake and a DOGE-BBP stake:

"BBP UTXO": "393d1db2c05381d3bd5b88b448b70cb0e5324785c4108d57ea673edea971793f-26",
  "BBP Address": "BQXj5kV9LVUZGF4ipFCRmkzBbZu366grJt",
  "BBP Amount": 5000000.001,
  "Foreign Symbol": "DOGE",
  "Foreign Amount": 20000.90663,
  "Foreign UTXO": "c4eb9869dfc9c5ea18cb7aa6c154c103fc79bc03f4bce9356b2273af6c18e65f",
  "Foreign Value USD": 1009.921827750845,
  "BBP Value USD": 906.2990181150097,
  "DWU": 29.45432133446527,
  "Foreign Ticker": "DOGE"

So you can see above, since the DOGE is worth $1009 and the BBP is worth $906, this stake is worth $906 * 2, with a DWU of 29.45%.

Note that our DWU will be increasing soon, as PODC will be retired in approx. 7 more days, giving people even more reason to use BBP for their long crypto portfolio.  Help hedge your fiat risks for your family with a hybrid crypto position.

Currently, our sanctuaries receive 41% of the block reward, and I feel now that we have UTXO staking, we no longer need to pay the sanctuaries such a high percentage (although realize our sanctuaries are required to sponsor one orphan each, so we do not want to decrease it dramatically).  Im thinking we will vote on a decrease for sanctuary % down to approx 20%, moving the extra 21% into the UTXO daily rewards.  We will also vote on decreasing the monthly superblock governance budget down from 8.75% to 5%, giving this extra amount over to UTXO staking also.  I feel this will make us more efficient and competetive.  When our price rises, I feel there will still be enough in the 20% sanctuary reward to easily afford an orphan and make a profit (for the sancs, and it will still allow us to proclaim that we give more than 10% of our coin emission to orphan-charity).
