Hey Kasim

Sounds like issues in my country too. To solve this I would recommend you cold stake. So basically another node stakes on your behalf. This way your computer doesn’t have to stay online and connected to the internet.

You can use mypivxwallet.org and store your PIVX there and stake from that website. Make sure you backup your mnemonic phrase.
