Will we see offline staking for BLK in the near(1-2 years) future ? or is it something to do with Peercoin ?
one of the things about staking, is getting reward while helping to secure the network. and keeping a secured as possible node running.
Yes but with blackcoin you can stake offline,
to get a reward you have to call rpc method on other blackoind connected to the network.
So your secured blackoind full of blackcoins , wakes up every 16s, checks for kernel,
if it gets lucky and finds a kernel, it call's other empty wallet facing dangers of internet,
which will submit the block to the network
so now your empty wallet is securing the network and your blackcoins are safe ;P
