No Rewards Windows PC

Hello

My ID was generated over a month ago and I have been mining for over 20 days but still don’t see any rewards in my wallet. I am using my home windows PC for this and the node stays up at least 12 hours each day. Is there something I am doing wrong? I read somewhere that there was an initial NKN deposit required for getting the rewards but I wasn’t sure if that was applicable for mining on home PCs as well. I’ll appreciate any guidance the community can provide. Thanks.

  1. Please look up your node on http://www.nstatus.org/
  2. do you have static IP for your Windows?

Hello

This is what i see on www.nstatus.org and yes I did set a static ip in the network config settings.

Hi @nitsy !

First, ur node seems correctly configured, no problem on this :slight_smile:
The “Persist_finished” state indicate that it’s currently mining blocks.

Second regarding the rewards, as you can read on this forum, it could take between 20 and 30 days to get a reward… if your node is running 24/24 7/7… As you stated that your node is actually up half of the time I think you might have to wait a bit longer. The reason is that is time you shutdown your node, the network keep on mining block, saving information. When you wake up your node, it might take him sometime to sync before actually mining … and than you shut it down again … I would really suggest you to install your node on a low energy device such as a Raspberry Pi to keep it up as much as possible :slight_smile:

Whatever don’t worry, you are currently participating the network and your reward should arrive soon or late :slight_smile:

Thanks a lot! I will keep mining in that case and hope that some rewards show up soon. :smile:
