Title: Android Mini PCs
Post by: Arrakeen on May 01, 2016, 11:16:35 PM
I have a quad core mini PC running Android 4.4.4 (description here (http://www.amazon.com/Mk809IV-RK3188-Android-Bluetooth-Andriod/dp/B00JE0EV7U)).  Wondering if there are any popular/profitable altcoins that I could use this device in conjunction with - for example, setting up a dedicated node or plain old PoS (unless the coin is dead).

Anyone have other ideas for what I could do with this device, in regards to crypto?  I could probably flash the device & run linux on it, even get a linux app (?) if that opens up any possibilities (for example, something impossible on stock android).

If anyone is running a node or mining PoS on android, please list which coin(s) here!

Thanks in advance for any ideas

I think BURST has an Android mining app out now, that basically mines using your harddisk space.

I'm actually installing a second hard drive to my PC for the purpose of BURST mining  ;) The mini PC doesn't have much space on it, so I'd rather find a different use for it.  Thanks for the motivation to get started with BURST on my PC, though!

bump - someone's gotta be using one of these, or a similar device...maybe something designed around a raspberry pi could be integrated into this?

CUBE. I used to carry these, and more, in the shop

We have a fully functioning staking wallet and manager for backups, two separate apps

Thanks!

Is there anything else I can do with this thing? Even if it requires a bit of 'tinkering'?
