I cannot withdraw the coins and he pulled another 9% out of nowhere

Question: I withdrew funds from a bad stakepool before I claimed rewards. Is it possible to claim rewards after withdrawing?

Answer: Yes. I had to redelegate to the stakepool in order for it to appear under โ€œMy Delegateโ€ tab. Then I was able to claim.

Iโ€™m unable to withdraw my tokens from a miner who changed the commission rate to 100%, are they permanently locked until they free up enough for me to withdraw or is there a mechanism that eventually releases them? Itโ€™s been nearly 48 hours now, Iโ€™ve tried several times and now the withdraw amount is showing 4 times what I actually delegated.

Stay clear of Pool-ID 395.

I cannot withdraw my PHA token.

Pool-ID: 96, 244, 815
Pool change commission rate: came from 0% to 100%

I donโ€™t know why but withdraw transaction success. thanks.

Iโ€™ve given up hope Iโ€™ll get my 10K back, itโ€™s a tiny fraction of my holdings so Iโ€™m not that bothered. Itโ€™s more frustrating that miners are able to change the commission on the fly like this, there should be a lock, 30 day minimum to stop this. Iโ€™ll just hodl instead of staking again.

Maybe just search better pool ;) and check something more than APR only ;)
Stake is locked for up to 14 days.

When I staked, the APRโ€™s were all 0% as it had just launched.

If the stake is returned after 14 days then I can wait. I thought it was similar to other pools where you could only withdraw when others fill the pool, allowing X amount to be unlocked, which would of been a nightmare as people are unlikely going to stake in a 100% commission pool.

The issue I had was the commission was low then 30 minutes after staking when up to 100% commission, APR was still 0% cause things just launched. Lesson learned.

Hi, please read staking explanation carefully, it means:

  • Delegation withdraw could release immediately, 7 days or 14 days.
  • It depends on each pool free_delegation ammount, and if have / donโ€™t have extra PHA delegated to the pool in 7 days

In another hand, the timing on Khala is counted by blocks, not 100% match the time in real world. On Khala:

  • 1 day = 7200 blocks
  • 7 days = 50400 blocks

Please monitor the blocks number rather than real time. But we are also trying to making block timing more stable in 12s.

Hi, I have read staking explanation, but I didnโ€™t find anything regarding change commission from 30 to 100% , just because the operator " donโ€™t want to receive staking pha anymore" as he answered to me. And then your funds get stuck, thanks for.your concern โ€ฆ

where can I monitor the blocks numbers? i.e. where can I find out in which block I undelegated and which block we are in right now?
