dcrwallet displays the wrong balance during stake mining about dcrwallet HOT 4 CLOSED

This issue might only be cosmetic. getbalance returns 0 when it shouldn't.

from dcrwallet.

try doing
dcrctl -u -P --wallet getbalance "default" 0 all
This will give you your total wallet balance including unconfirmed balances.
and do
dcrctl -u -P --wallet getbalance "default" 0 spendable
will give you the balance you can spend and is not being spent on buying tickets and can be sent to other wallets.

Basically once your wallet spendable balance meets the maxticketprice criteria, a ticket is bought on the new block and rest of the balance gets transferred to a new address made from your own seed, since the transaction is unconfirmed till the next block it doesn't show up when u only do getbalance.

if you restart your wallet at that point and set maxticketprice to 0.0
from the next blockchain once the last transaction has been confirmed, your entire spendable balance will show up.

~This is basically what I noticed from my recent ticket buying adventures.
A dev can elaborate more.

Known issue. OP_SSTXCHANGE tagged outputs require 1-conf to spend in wallet/mempool. Both need to be refactored to allow chaining of tickets. Buying a ticket will send the remaining funds to change, so you won't see it show up in balance until getting 1-conf.

In the meantime, getbalance can be changed to show OP_SSTXCHANGE tagged amounts. The caveat is they're still unspendable, so it might confuse the user.

Should be fixed in #104
