How much beans are you getting a week or month with the 10000 beancash you have? Im curious but does using the wallet to sprout so to speak use a lot of electricity or anything like that?

So if you have your computer on at least 12 hours a day, that is not enough to sprout the bean? I checked the site and it seem you earn 250 beancash for every 10000 beancash every month according to that calculator. But that is incorrect? Thats only if you have your computer on 24/7 for an entire month? So if only 12 hours a day everyday, you get 125 beancash a month?

Incorrect six ways to Sunday.

Block reward from staking (sprouting) is 1000 BeanCash, so if the calculator says you'll make 250 BITB/BEAN per month then it will take you, on average, 4 months to receive a stake (sprout). Assuming the wallet is open 24/7, that is.

If the wallet is only open 12 hours per day then it will take twice as long to receive a sprout (again, a statistical process). Consequently, the larger the number of BITB/BEAN in your wallet the more accurate the sprouting calculation tends to be. I use an old laptop for my wallets and set the screen turn-off time when not being used to 5 minutes so it consumes hardly any power - maybe 20W-40W or so.
