Title: Smart Phone for Mining?
Post by: worldinacoin on July 07, 2013, 12:52:02 PM
I have seen some smart phones with quad core processors, will these be suitable for mining Litecoins?   Some of the smart phones arent the latest models and hence cost very little.  Just wondering if it is profitable and any software that can run in the smartphones?

You can run the BFL mining software on it, but you have to have some Jalepenos connected to your phone.

Good luck finding BFL hardware.
