HOW LONG WILL IT STAKE?
Why on earth did you quote the entire posting just to ask a simple question? BAD! VERY BAD!
Also, i do believe you can mine with cpu. Although you might be better off just buying into coins when they are cheap and holding them. It is really hard to give advice on what to do because everyone is in a different situation. I don't know what the reward is going to look like for the mining. I like the concept though:
" The CLAM Shell aims to meet these needs by placing at least 25% of the resources earned by the pool into what is known as "The CLAM Shell". The CLAM Shell is comprised of an accruing account of sub-market price buy orders at market. These buy orders have two primary characteristics: they are placed at between 50% and 75% of the current market price, and any order that falls to below 50% of the current market price will periodically be accrued and moved up to track the current market price.
All CLAMS purchased with these buy orders are distributed to the pool miners via the accrued 'Pearl Payouts' system. "
All the clams that are out there are all there will be. Without a constant supply to dilute prices other than people doing the conversions in their wallets and such and then dumping, i dunno, it sure seems like something interesting. In this circumstance mining the coin really helps two fold. You get the coins and you get to help set prices. The more we mine the more we can buy up, the better the price looks. HMMM indeed.
In all honesty, mining is sort of complex. It isn't that is unreachable, just requires a bit of time investment. Lots of good guides have been written about how to mine in a much more logical flow than i could put forth here.
