Q: How do I access my Edge Node wallet if I lose access to my Edge Node?
A: You can download your Edge Node Keystore and access your Edge Node’s wallet by downloading a keystore for it. Simply find the WALLET or INFO menu and click on Export Wallet as Keystore.
Q: If I lock my TFUEL for 3/6/12 months as part of the booster program, can I unlock them earlier in case of emergency?
A: Unfortunately, no since these are locked via smart contracts. If you lock them for 3/6/12 months they will be available only after 3/6/12 months.
Q: How long before I can get back my locked TFUEL after I withdraw them?
A: Typically it takes about 96 hours to complete the transaction, per our standard blockchain cooldown period.
Q: Is it possible to have booster rewards delegate to another wallet, not the wallet that locked the TFUEL?
A: No. Only staking and locking wallet gets the booster rewards from your Edge Node.
Q: Where does the TDROP for EN jobs rewards come from?
A: This is from the 10% that is reserved for ThetaDrop marketing.
Q: Where does the utilization score take its calculation from for Edge Booster?
A: The utilization scores are based on a number of variables on the EC hosted cloud servers, not local. It'll take a few months to stabilize and calibrate but one of the variables will be GPU utilization and efficiency. This score will become more relevant when distributed edge nodes are fully integrated next year.
Q: Will I still earn from booster rewards if the EN I stake to is offline?
A: As the TFUEL is locked to the smart contract, it will generate Booster rewards independent of the Edge Node, even if its offline. That EN would simply lose out on rewards from the 500k TFUEL staked to it.
Q: If I staked 500k TFUEL to my EN and then locked 500k TFUEL for Booster program, and then later unstaked the initial 500k, would I still earn rewards for the 500k locked TFUEL?
A: You would no longer be eligible for the Elite Booster rewards even though 500K TFUEL is still locked for X months. You would need to maintain the full Elite Edge Node status of 500k TFUEL staked.
Q: If I staked 500k TFUEL and then locked 500k TFUEL, how do I recover my TFUEL if something happens to my machine? (i.e. destroyed, stolen, corrupt, etc.)
A: TFUEL is staked/locked from the wallet itself, you would simply sign into your wallet to retrieve it when the unlock cooldown period has been reached.
Q: I have 2mm TFUEL staked across 4 ENs, yet I’m unable to lock 2mm TFUEL, what's going on?
A: The max number of TFUEL that can be locked in one transaction is 500k TFUEL.
Q: If I have 500k TFUEL staked and I lock 100k TFUEL, can I make a separate locked amount of up to an additional 400k?
A: Yes.
Q: I have 500k TFUEL staked to my EN, with an additional 2mm TFUEL in my wallet, how come I can’t lock this 2mm TFUEL?
A: Each EN maxed out with 500k TFUEL staked entitles you to lock up to 500k TFUEL. If you wanted to lock 2mm TFUEL, then you would need to have 4 ENs running with 500k TFUEL staked to each one of them. [500k x 4 (staked) = 2mm eligible to lock]
Q: What is the absolute max amount of TFUEL that a single wallet can lock?
A: 10mm TFUEL, which would need 10mm TFUEL staked to do so. ( Locking limit of a wallet = min{500 k * number_of_full500k_eens_staked_from_this_wallet, 10mm} )
Q: When can I get my Edge Node rewards?
A: Edge Node reward payouts (over min threshold) are batched and sent the first week of the month.
Q: Do I need to keep my Edge Node active 24/7 in order to receive rewards?
A: Yes. Edge Node reports proof of uptime consistently, so please keep it up as long as you can.
Q: If I want to unstake my TFUEL, how long will it take to get them back?
A: Unstaking process takes up to 96 hours to complete, per our standard blockchain cooldown period.
Q: Can I stake from one wallet and lock from another?
A: No. You can only use one single wallet to stake and lock.
Q: When can I get my Booster rewards?
A: All rewards are paid in the first week of each month.
Q: Can I send Edge Node Rewards to my coinbase account, since transactions appear as “coinbase”?
A: The COINBASE company is named after coinbase transactions, which are special transactions that introduce cryptocurrency into circulation in proof of work cryptocurrencies. Unfortunately you can not send Theta/TFUEL to Coinbase currently.
