How to use QT Wallet

The user interface of the CloakCoin QT wallet is similar to the Bitcoin core user interface. Below you will find explanations and information on how to get started.

The first step to start using CloakCoin is to install the CloakCoin QT wallet.

Initialization

The CloakCoin QT wallet will open and start loading the blockchain. On the first load, the wallet will ask if you want to download the blockchain.

It is advisable to answer with YES because this considerably reduces the time to load all the blocks.

(If you have any issues with the auto-downloader, try to download the blockchain manually)

CloakCoin Welcome Screen



Searching for Connections

After the welcome screen, the wallet will start looking for connections, it takes a few minutes depending on the quality of your network. After establishing a connection with the Cloak network the wallet will start to sync the missing blocks.

Go to: Settings/Encrypt Wallet...

Note that this will only encrypt the wallet.dat file (for sending and staking coins). The balance amount, transaction records and address book will be visible to anyone.

⚠️ Do not lose the passphrase! If you forget your passphrase, your funds will be lost! ⚠️

Additional Encryption for complete Privacy

An additional encryption feature, developed by Team Cloak is also supported. (only on QT wallet available)

If you close your wallet, a message recommends to enter a passphrase. This passphrase has nothing to do with the previous encryption!

With the additional passphrase encryption, is the wallet completly locked and all transaction records and addresses are not visible.

On the next wallet start up you will be asked to enter the passphrase.

⚠️ Again, do not lose the passphrase! If you forget your passphrase your funds will be lost! ⚠️

Your wallet will automatically generate your first addresses. On Receive coins are two generated addresses displayed which you can use, to receive funds/payments.

One regular for normal open transactions and one Cloak address (stealthaddress) used for private and untraceable ENIGMA transactions.

You can also use the address book to save regular and Cloak addresses with a label.



Stake CloakCoin

CloakCoin is a pure proof-of-stake (PoS) cryptocurrency that offers an interest of 6% per annum on staked coins. To stake/mint CloakCoin, you need a positive balance in your wallet.

Your wallet doesn't have to be open/online 24/7, but to secure the network it is preferable to do so. You will gain Coin Age even if your wallet is offline.

⚠️ Before you start to stake your coins, please be sure to be fully synced! ⚠️

Go to: Unlock For Minting

Enter your passphrase to unlock the wallet, to start the staking/minting process.

Thanks to the For Cloaking and Staking only option, it's not possible for an attacker to steal/send your coins while staking.

CloakCoin Staking QT

After unlocking the wallet for minting, it will take a few minutes/hours to receive the first reward.

After your full CloakCoin stake, your wallet divides into two amounts. These two amounts stake at the next time on their own.

Go to: Settings/Options/Display and activate Display coin control features (experts only!)

Now click on Send Coins on the menu bar and go to Inputs...

If you select all wallet addresses and send your total amount to yourself, all coins moving back to one wallet address. Means you prevent that your CloakCoin wallet splits in too many pieces.

You can calculate your, daily, weekly, monthly and yearly staking reward with the CloakCoin Staking Calculator!
