Check your balance on the block explorer
https://testnet.explore.veriblock.org/address/<your_address>
If your balance is what you expect --> great.
If your balance is different than what you'd expect --> reach out on the forums.
Ensure that you can re-import your wallet
If you can re-import your wallet on testnet, then you'll be able to import it on MainNet.
Always have a backup of your wallet.dat! If it is password protected, then make you you have the password.
Here is a 5-minute test:
- Make sure you have the latest NodeCore version (0.3.12 or greater)
- Stop your local nodecore instance
- Delete the wallet files (obviously back it up first!!!)
- Restart nodecore (it will automatically create a new wallet)
- Can you import your wallet and see the balance?
Prepare to re-adjust your mining
For PoW Mining, coins will be reflected up until the last testnet block. Therefore after that block, you'll probably want to point your miners elsewhere until MainNet starts
For PoP Mining, given there is a 500-block delay for rewards to be paid out, you'll probably want to stop PoP mining at lastBlockHeight-500, or 471500. For example if you PoP at block 47199 - the reward is past the final block height and won't be reflected.
