Coin Age and Staking Dynamics
With staking on Divi, coins are eligible immediately upon becoming spendable. However, their weight matures over time, reaching 100% after one week (10,080 blocks). This maturity system ensures fairness and encourages long-term participation. Funds in your wallet are organized into batches called UTXOs (Unspent Transaction Outputs), each with its own coin age and weight. Key points to consider include:
- Immediate Eligibility: New UTXOs stake as soon as they are spendable but mature over 10,080 blocks to reach full weight.
- Batch Independence: Moving or spending funds resets the coin age of the affected batch, while others remain unaffected.|
- Stake Resets: Receiving a stake on a batch also resets its coin age.
- Impact of Coin Age: At 5,040 blocks, a 100k DIVI UTXO stakes like 50k, maturing to its full weight at 10,080 blocks.
