Title: Wallet Balance 'Immature'?
Post by: ruletheworld on November 06, 2013, 12:16:54 pm
This confuses me. I left my computer mining all night, and in addition to the balance and unconfirmed, I have a place for
Immature: 150 PTS
However, when I go to the transactions tab, there are two entries with 50 PTS each of type Mined. They aren't confirmed and have a "?" to the left end. When I hover, it says 'Offline 3 confirmations. This block was not received by any other nodes and will probably not be accepted!'

What exactly does this mean? I don't suppose there was any forking, was there?

It has been sooo long since Bitcoin users could CPU mine that you seem to have forgotten that it takes 120 blocks before a freshly mined coin can be spent.

In addition to having "immature" PTS that you can't spend until after 120 cnfirmations it sounds like you created a block that was orphaned, you won't ever receive those coins.

I ended up with 95 PTS immature, two transactions for 47.5 PTS mined, checked 5 hours later, found block count was stalled at 1089 though still hash activity 5.14/minute. Restarted qt, block count went up to 3004, immature PTS disappeared. Any explanations pr reference link?

I had this same thing happen to me, I think it comes from overtaxing your hardware.  The mining keeps going but you're working on the wrong block, I also found a block - got 2 confirmations then sat there.  When I restarted it caught up with the network and the block I mined was orphaned.

Same to me, two blocks were in immature staying there up to 5 hour and when I restarted my PC they disappeared.
Some kind of orphans I guess?
