<p>Shares are no currency. Only if the pool you are mining for is actually finding a block you will be partial rewarded in dependence of how many share the other miners have send.</p>

<p>Some example:</p>

<p>Every block rewards <code>25</code> BTC<br>
You got <code>20_000</code> shares<br>
All other miners together done <code>1_000_000</code> shares (they will have more for sure)<br><br>
Then you have this formula:</p>

<p><code>Your-Shares / All-Shares * Block-Reward</code></p>

<p><code>20_000 / 1_020_000 * 25 = 0,49 BTC</code></p>

<p>This would be your reward but the pool vendor will take off some fees from that as well.</p>

<p>I have over 10,000 shares accepted.  How does that translate to bitcoin?  How much bitcoin is 10,000 shares?  It says it will transfer to my wallet when I get .01 bitcoin.  But so far, nothing in my wallet.</p>

What pool is it? What payout scheme do they use? Impossible to answer without that, at least.

Shares are no currency. Only if the pool you are mining for is actually finding a block you will be partial rewarded in dependence of how many share the other miners have send.

Some example:

Every block rewards `25` BTC  
You got `20_000` shares  
All other miners together done `1_000_000` shares (they will have more for sure)  
  
Then you have this formula:

`Your-Shares / All-Shares * Block-Reward`

`20_000 / 1_020_000 * 25 = 0,49 BTC`

This would be your reward but the pool vendor will take off some fees from that as well.
