What is Cardano’s Proof-of-Stake (POS)?
In contrast to the proof-of-work consensus mechanism that Bitcoin uses, some cryptocurrencies use an alternative model for consensus called proof-of-stake. So instead of miners creating new coins and verifying transactions as in the proof-of-work model, you have what are called stakeholders. Stakeholders are rewarded for delegating their ADA to stake pools that are managing block production.

PIVX is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that stands for “Private Instant Verified Transaction“. It is a fork of another cryptocurrency, Dash. Like Dash, PIVX is also used proof of stake for consensus. This means that there are opportunities for earning PIVX just by owning PIVX. This contribution to the network helps fund the verification of transactions and the creation of new PIVX coins. You can think of this as earning interest on your coin or as a dividend on your investment.
HolyTransaction.com is excited to present to you the launch of our new staking service. You can now leverage Proof of Stake (POS) holdings to safeguard crypto networks while earning financial rewards. Staking PIVX has become much easier with HolyTransaction!
The first step is to register on HolyTransaction.com to get your PIVX web wallet. The official PIVX wallet is available for Windows, macOS, as well as Linux. Android and iOS versions are also available, but these versions do not yet include staking functionality.
After accessing the HolyTransaction wallet, you must wait for your PIVX deposit to reach the minimum number of confirmations for the synchronization to finish. If you move your PIVX in staking before the next rewards distribution is done, your wallet will receive less rewards according to the mininum PIVX held in that time frame.
Once the PIVX address on Holtransaction has received the transaction, you will start staking yourself some PIVX. Your coins must have at least 101 confirmations. These coins are referred to as mintable coins. The number of confirmations on your transaction can be viewed in the history of your account. Once your coins are mintable, you will then be able to stake them and start receiving POS rewards, you can see your rewards in History -> Distributions. Staking can sometimes take as long as 24h to begin once all the prerequisites are met. If staking does not begin after some days, you should wait until you start minting blocks in your wallet.
The more PIVX you stake, the more rewards you get. If you have over 10,000 PIVX, this qualifies you as a masternode. This allows you some say in how the PIVX network operates and also qualifies you to receive additional rewards. Masternodes can earn up to 10% of their stake.
You can stake your coin without being online 24/7, but you will not be eligible for staking rewards while your system is offline. Unlike some other proof of stake coins, PIVX does not consider the age of the coins or the amount of time they have been staked. PIVX only considers is your PIVX balance.
HolyTransaction staking wallet makes it much more user-friendly to stake your POS cryptocurrencies. PIVX has great passive income potential, especially for those who hold over 1000 PIVX, this designation greatly increases the rewards you receive. To begin staking PIVX start by depositing your coins in your HolyTransaction Wallet.

Gridcoin is a cryptocurrency with ambitions of advancing scientific research. It was originally a simple hybrid of proof of work and proof of stake but now has developed its own custom mechanism blending elements of the two. New coins are created using Proof of Stake, but the number of new coins created depends on how much processing power was used for BOINC.
HolyTransaction Wallet is excited to present to you the launch of our new staking service. You can now leverage Proof of Stake (POS) holdings to safeguard crypto networks while earning financial rewards. Staking GRC has become much easier with HolyTransaction!
According to the PoR mechanism, If a node contributing its hash power to a project that has been whitelisted on the Berkeley Open Infrastructure of Network Computing (BOINC), that node will receive GRC coins corresponding proportionally with the amount of the work done by the node. The BOINC list contains projects of scientific importance that require a supercomputer but don’t have access to one. Of these projects, Gridcoin users vote on a subset of them to be whitelisted for contributions of computing power. Gridcoin, therefore, gives people all over the world the ability to contribute computing power to any of these projects and contribute to scientific research. You can also generate income by running Gridcoin in what the Gridcoin project calls “investor-only mode.”
Investor-only mode is what the Gridcoin project calls it when you setup earns proof of stake interest as opposed to the DPOR (proof of research) payments that “crunchers”—those who contribute computing power receive. You will only need to install the Gridcoin client and will not need the BOINC client.
The first step to setting up a Gridcoin client for investor-only mode is to install the Gridcoin Research client. The client is available for Windows, macOS, and several flavors of Linux including Debian, Arch Linux, OpenSUSE, and Fedora. Once the client has been installed, you will want to sync with the Gridcoin blockchain. This can take between several hours to a couple of days, depending on your internet speed. A green check on the connection bar indicates that the synchronization is complete. At that point, you can unlock your wallet for “staking only.” It can take up to 16 hours for the staking to begin. Running the Gridcoin client at all times maximizes your potential for income. Anytime the client is offline, you could miss an opportunity to mint a block.
The higher the balance you have, the higher the chances that you will get to “stake” a block. This is only a result of the fact that a higher balance gives you more chance to mint Pos blocks and thus you get a payout more often. While you can theoretically stake with any number of coins, you can only reliably stake with at least 2000 coins and the Gridcoin project itself recommends at least 5,000. The miners who contribute computing power to these projects come in two varieties—solo and pool. Pool miners earn research rewards whether they stake or not, but solo miners must stake in order to get paid.
Gridcoin provides a way to contribute to important scientific research and earn passive income while doing so. Even those who only stake coins and don’t provide actual computing power to these projects contribute by securing the network and helping the Gridcoin ecosystem. All you need to start staking Gridcoin is to deposit GRC in your HolyTransaction account.

Blackcoin is a proof of stake-based coin. Blackcoin actually started out in life as a proof of work cryptocurrency but became a proof of stake coin after the 10,000th block was mined. Blackcoin claims in its whitepaper that it was the first cryptocurrency to use a pure proof-of-stake-based protocol on Bitcoin code. Blackcoin provides many of the same features as other cryptocurrencies, including decentralization and a high degree of transparency. It also offers great opportunities for passive income for staking your coins.
HolyTransaction Wallet is excited to present to you the launch of our new staking service. You can now leverage Proof of Stake (POS) holdings to safeguard crypto networks while earning financial rewards. Staking BLK has become much easier with HolyTransaction!
The process of staking is initiated by not moving your BLK for at least a period of 8 hours while keeping your node syncronized with the Blackcoin network. Your earnings are proportional to the number of coins that you have—the more coins you have, the more you earn. The amount of time you keep your wallet open for staking also has an effect on your block rewards.
Blackcoin has improved its block time from 60 to 64 seconds. Blackcoin had previously used the scrypt protocol for its hashing algorithm, but this was changed to SHA256d. Blackcoin’s reliance on proof of stake gives it an edge in performance over many proof of work cryptocurrencies. When it comes to retail applications, where transactions cannot take an hour to fully confirm as with Bitcoin, proof of stake cryptocurrencies like Blackcoin are better suited for this role.
Staking your Blackcoin will earn you a reward of between 1% and 8% of the total amount of coins held in your wallet for one year. You just need to deposit BLK in your HolyTransaction account. Wait for 24h to start staking Blackcoin and visit History -> Distributions to see your POS rewards.

Bitcoin and many other early cryptocurrencies use a consensus model known as proof of work. This requires powerful computers to perform cryptographic problems that verify transactions on a blockchain. Peercoin originated an alternative to this that is used in many cryptocurrencies.
Peercoin introduced the concept of proof of stake, an alternative to the proof of work consensus model. In its initial stages, proof of work played a large part in the consensus model since it was a fork of Bitcoin. But the original proof of work-dominated model has almost fully given way to proof of stake. This is more environmentally friendly, removes the need for purchasing expensive mining equipment and allows transactions to be performed a lot more quickly than on proof of work blockchains.

This act of generating a new block is called minting, however staking is a more popular term today. In Peercoin’s implementation of proof of stake, each node tries to find a new block each second. If the block is valid and backed by sufficient coinage (coins*days), it is accepted by the network. Nodes are only eligible to find new blocks when their coins have been in a wallet for 30 days. Their odds of finding valid blocks go up with the age of the coin until it reaches 90 days, at which point the probability is maxed out. Once a node finds a new block, new PPC are then minted and, for each new block, that node gets a block minting reward. After a new block has been minted, the age of the coins in the node’s address that are involved in the minting is reset. The address will then not be eligible to be chosen based on those particular coins until 30 days have passed. Staking your Peercoin assets does lock them up from being spent or moved. However, you can sell or spend the PPC at any time—you will just lose the opportunity to mint new blocks.
Why stake Peercoin and not other cryptocurrencies? The return on staking is lower with Peercoin than with most other proof of stake cryptocurrencies. Vast majority of economic studies shows that ideal inflation is 2-3%. However, Peercoin is serious about keeping inflation low, currently at 3.33%. Peercoin’s reliance on proof of stake means that it should not suffer from the same scalability problems that have plagued proof of work platforms like Bitcoin. This means quicker transaction times and an overall better experience for retail and vending applications—which means great potential for the coin’s success in the future. You can learn more about its ecosystem in the Peercoin Primer video series.
Peercoin was the originator of proof of stake in its whitepaper, even though it took some time for proof of stake to actually make its way into widespread use on the blockchain. Staking Peercoin and its minting process presents a great opportunity to earn coin that will, in turn, earn you more coin. All you need is just to deposit PPC to start staking on your HolyTransaction wallet.

If you want to be a successful trader, you need to know about cryptocurrency wallets and different ways to keep them safe. Cryptocurrency wallets are more of software, primarily designed to store crypto keys. Assuring the safety of a wallet is highly important to keep your coins safe on a wallet.
This post introduces you to ten advanced ways to protect your coins safe on wallets in less than 100 dollars.
Let’s get started!
Opting for Multi-Signature
Multi-Signature can be a great way to keep your Bitcoin wallet safe and secure. What does it mean? It is a process to decide the legitimacy of the transaction by verifying it from two to five people.
You can get access to the Bitcoin wallet, but the withdrawal of funds is possible only if 3 to 5 people validate the transaction. The multi-signature facility of the bitcoin wallet gives a user complete control over his money and leaves no scope for scams.
Two Factor Authentication Process
The two-factor authentication process is one of the most effective ways to ensure the safety of your wallet, as it requires two pieces of information to give access to the wallet. If someone tries to get access by guessing passwords, it won’t be possible without the other factor.
You can set up 2FA for your wallet in different ways. You can take advantage of Google authentication, which involves a six digit number that changes after some time, but you know it. As all wallets do not offer two-factor authentication, you can use a popular solution- biometric, which involves your fingerprints.
Gone Phishing – Email and Web
The crypto world has been a victim of Phishing scams through Google Ads and emails. Therefore, you need to ensure that only those companies that have that have their domain spelt correctly, send you emails. Refrain from finding their web addresses clicking on Google ads. If a hacker manages to get your private key, you are likely to lose your funds.
No to auto-updates
Experts recommend to turning off auto-updates provided by crypto applications. Account holders can suffer potential loss due to application bugs. You should wait for some time after the releasing of an update to check if there are any bugs or not. Let other users test an app so that you can make a decision regarding the use of an application.
Software
Updating your software is important. Your wallet can probably be the easy target for hackers if it is running on non-updated bitcoin software. The updated version of wallet software will have advanced security features, which can protect your Bitcoins in a better way. You will be able to evade big security crises by updating your software with the latest security fixes and protocol. Update your mobile systems, computer operating systems and software to tighten the safety of your cryptos.
Encryption
By encrypting your particular folder, file, or message, you add an extra layer of security to it, which can not be unlocked easily. To put it simply, encryption means using the password to access a Bitcoin wallet. Encryption is highly effective when you use a desktop, mobile, or hardware wallet, as it can protect you from online rogues. Using the strong password is not just important, as you need to memorize it well because the password recovery mechanism is weak in the Bitcoin’s case.
Hardware Wallet Storage or Offline Mode
Another great way to secure your Bitcoin wallet is storing the Bitcoin values in a hardware wallet or you can say cold storage. This storage is similar to USB drives. You do not even require a link to the internet as it is an offline method.
Make sure you do not store a large amount of cryptocurrency in cold storage. Divide the amount into two parts. You can keep a small amount online for trading purposes while keeping the second amount stored in the hardware wallet-offline.
Keep a Highly Secure Offsite Backup
What will you do if you can no longer access your wallet due to a technical issue in your computer? Nothing but you will lose your Bitcoins. You probably have had recovered your coins if you had a backup of your wallet. Therefore, multiple backups of wallets stored in different locations are important.
Backups vary according to wallets. You will be able to backup after every transaction for some wallets or after 100 transactions for others while updating your wallet with the latest private keys, required to access the wallet.
Store Private Keys Offline
You can enhance the security of your Bitcoin wallet by keeping private keys offline. A Bitcoin involve the use of Public keys for transferring Bitcoins. You can also check your account balance using public keys. Moreover, you need public keys to govern payments from your Bitcoin wallet.
So if anyone is able to access your private keys, you can lose your coins. Therefore, you need to remove private keys and store in another computer, not connected to the internet. This will keep your wallet safe from online malware and hackers.
Use a Dedicated Hardware
You can make safer Bitcoin transactions using a dedicated hardware. A dedicated USB key minimizes the data exposure to viruses during the movement of data from an online wallet to a hardware wallet.
The crypto industry is booming with so many cryptos coming live every day. The complexity of the Blockchain, mining pools, and wallets is important to understand prior to trading. Though you get a ton of options when it comes to a crypto wallet, selecting the right one can make or break you as an investor.
