Wonder if you could clarify something for me.
I notice in the rich list (interesting browse) there is an address - Evg3P2W4sdfEbXsN1p5YxbE84hJFYmAnjQ ~ 133k HBN
This address has only 2 deposit transactions in Sept 2013 and hasn't staked since.
My question is on the coin age.
The coin age in that wallet is now over the 150 day mark, but the maximum coin age (an idea I'm not sure I grasp correctly) is 30 days for staking.
When (if the wallet is not lost) this address stakes will it generate for
a) 30 days coin age - is anything lost for holding a closed wallet for so long?
b) 150+ days,
c) multiple 30 day blocks adding up to 150 days?
Compounded interest or not?
Also I'd like to take the opportunity to say good job on this coin by all involved.
All blocks can generate stakes up to the current yearly intrest rate. Which does change as more people stake. So in this case if these do come up for stake they will receive a nice pop. This will cause the staking and pow difficultly to move up to compensate for the extra coins, eventually it will even it self out again.
Does not matter if it is 1 block or many. All are treated the same.
You do miss out on compounded interest so a constant stake is better for you and the network..
