That will increase as synchronization continues. firewall and antivirus settings may need to be adjusted. Mine has over 60 connections. Some people have over 100. Connections matter when your block is being solved at the same time as another. if theirs wins you get orphan block, if yours win they get the orphan.

Yeah, the wallet took longer than I felt was normal/average to start syncing but it is now up to 16 connections and about 10% done.

I found that calculator earlier; it looks like you need around 25k BEAN to find a block every month. Sure wish there was a calculator like this for TZC staking...

Yeah wallet synchronization takes a while its because they haven't 'fiddled' with the blockchain. Integrity has been maintained.

I started off with that much the first time. When I was very new to crypto. Then bought 250k, then 2.5M for a while I was spending every cent that wasn't nailed down on Beans. Now it just builds more beans for me. Easy passive income. Mining rigs keep running too but can buy less and less Beans with my payouts. And have to send another GPU for RMA... sprouting is so much easier.
