Those are two very excellent questions. I wish I had an equally excellent answer. The truth is, I don't. Steem does not differentiate in how tokens are labeled as to where they come from.
CTPM is based pretty much on the LEOM.
I read it and paste it here for you.
How exactly mining works with LEOM & LEOMM?
Digital mining tokens on Steem Engine work on a sort of “lottery ticket” system based on your mining power. Different miners have different settings but here’s how LEOM and LEOMM work:
There are 30 winning miner “tickets” per hour, every hour of every day —> 30 potential winners each hour
1 mining power = 1 chance at winning a slot (i.e. if you have 1 LEOMM, then you have 4 potential chances to win 1 of these slots)
1 miner can win more than once (this is why having more LEOMM or LEOM will result in bigger payouts — you will win more often and you may even win more than 1x per hour)
The mining pool is 15% of the total inflation which means that there are 300,000 LEO tokens being distributed this year from the mining pool.
Each hour the system selects 30 random winning “tickets” (based on mining power) and then automatically distributes these tokens to the winning miners who can then claim the rewards in their Steem Engine wallet.
I have about 100 CTPM staked. I know I get tokens from it around the clock. I'm sorry I cannot give you a better answer.
Wow! 100 CTPM... amazing! Ok, it's wait and see for me. Somehow, I like it a lot that I'm learning from this.
just buy 1 and build from there.
I actually have 5 only right now. LOL! Planning to have more. Glad to see your recommendation. So I'll need to adjust my goals. :)

Thanks for the info. That is kind of what I had been thinking, about 100 CTPM
You're very welcome.
