Hello, I was wondering why way more than half of the mints on my transactions list remain as the lowest of the two in the image below and never end up in my wallet.
It seems like the minting gets triggered, but gets lost. So, purely out of interest, is this normal and if yes, what causes it for some mints to happen propperly and some not?
My computer is always on, so that should not cause the loss. Theoretically though, if a mint gets triggered, can the wallet going offline cause it to get lost and if yes, what happens to the 40 NSR? Does someone else get it?
Yes, if you go offline at specific times you lose your mint. Your minted block gets orphaned because it couldn’t get the word out and someone else added a new block instead and took the mint reward. Sounds like you have connectivity issues or something.
Do they have confirmations?
Otherwise any minted coins younger than… 5020?.. blocks will be locked / not spendable and listed as “stake” coin in the wallet overview.
i consider it as a normal phenomenon.
But you could keep it low if you have a very good internet connection and the wallet has more than 8 active connections
to NU network
If you have two clients minting with the same wallet most of your blocks found will be orphaned due to a security feature introduced a few months ago.
You can calculate orphan rate from http://blockexplorer.nu/orphans/1
