this is why it is useful to run a bitcoind and contribute to the network, even if you do not mine. as for contributing with a CPU or GPU it is simply not worth the power cost. buy coins and run nodes; participate in the digital economy! mining was always intended as a bootstrap, not a means unto itself...
