Dec 9, 2013 at 17:01 comment added ktorn As @smagedy mentioned below, 130 shares doesn't sound like a lot. Please beware of mining with CPU/GPU, as you will probably be spending more on electricity than what you will earn back in bitcoin. Even with some ASICs it's already becoming hard to achieve ROI. Please refer to this thread
Dec 2, 2013 at 16:03 comment added Tester97 Thank you for the answer - it is indeed helpful. I still would like to know, now that I have 130 shares accepted after running a couple of days, is this a significant number, or do I have to accumulate months worth of these before I get a coin, or is part of it just luck?
