Your coins will mature anyway, wallet open or closed, so you'll stake.
You'll just get less stakes if you don't run it 24/7.

•   Coin (input) is eligible to stake 3 days after the transaction that put it in your wallet.
•   Every second it gets a better and better chance to mint as it gets older.
•   But at 9 days after sitting in your wallet, the chances get no better.
•   Every second your coin will earn more and more interest once it mints.
•   But at 15 days, the potential earnings are capped. That means you can't open your wallet after 365 days and earn 20% interest. The most interest you will earn on an input is 0.822% (20% * 15 / 365).

•   So if you open your wallet every six months to stake, you'll earn just over 1.65% interest (1.00822 * 1.00822).
•   If you open it every 3 months you'll earn about 3.3% interest.
•   If you open it every 45 days, you'll earn about 6.7% interest.
•   If you open it every 22.5 days, you'll earn about 14% interest.
•   More frequently than that, you'll approach compounding to nearly 22% (based on a nominal APR of 20%).

The last calculation goes like this:
(1 + (0.20 * 3 / 365.0))**(365.0/3) - 1


Thanks!
Any block size hint?

EDIT:
Code:
StealthCoin Syncing Made Easy

1. Back up your wallet
2. Stop the old client
3. Go to the application data directory (Windows: "%appdata%/StealthCoin", OS X: "~/Library/Application Data/StealthCoin")
4. Remove blk0001.dat, database (directory), db.log, debug.log, and txleveldb (directory); or just remove everything but wallet.dat
5. Download the zipped bootstrap file from https://tinyurl.com/xst-bootstrap
6. Unpack the bootstrap file into the application data directory
7. Start the new client
8. For the new client your computer will pause momentarily at 71% to fill the key pool (you may not notice)
9. The progress will pause at 91% for as much as two hours (up to 4 hours for old computers!) to validate the bootstrap file. Do not interrupt this process!
10. The chain may take 5 to 10 minutes to sync after the bootstrap is complete
11. In some cases, the client may crash either right before bootstrap or right after. If so, just restart.

I Actually made this way, latest wallet version, running an MSI Apache-Pro GE62 7RE with 24GB of RAM and still startup screen is stuck at 93  Huh
