How can I simulate ProofOfStake (PoS) for a testnet (clone of Pivx)?
Ok. For some reason, I got this working when I tried it for the second time. This time, I set the Last PoW block number to 350. I mined first 5 blocks using the server. Then, I setup 4 different wallets in 4 different systems. I sent enough coins to all those 4 different wallets and make it available for staking. All these I did by the first 20 blocks. Then, I started to mine again using the server. Once the block number reached 350, I stopped mining on the server and suddenly, PoS took over and started producing blocks one by one using those 4 wallets. From this experience, I feel that just having 1 server and 2 clients are not enough to simulate PoS. We may need many more wallets connected to the network to get this working. Hope this helps some one.
