Electroneum released mobile mining App on Android and Apple. That's looks pretty cool. Have you tried that and what do you think about that?

Meh not interesting in that, i use my phone like always and everyday if i use it to mine some cryptocurrency my phone would be lag and maybe can be damage by that. And in the other hand mining through mobile phone not really profitable, when they make it doesnt mean you should use it.

what is the purpose of this app?
why do you use this app to mine crypto?
this will overheat your phone.

Electroneum has not real mining, they don't use your mobile device power, they just test your device and give them rating by hash rate, and you receive tokens when it's just connecting to the network. Just because you connected you receive tokens. So thats not mining as we know it.

Not real mining, tokens for connection per second.

Sounds interesting! Where i can find more info? Is mine galaxy s6 supported?

Supported. electroneum.com

I think! This is best to try, not to run every day!
Best wallet App on Android and Apple is best!

Never tried really ... is it ... is it enough power in the mobile processor for a mining of a +\- profitable coin? I mean you can't use mobile to mine BTC, you have to use a mining farm for that. Is it profitable anyway to mine some trashcoin that cost $0?

I understand it's not real mining and more of a simulation, even still I would be interested to see what kind of results people can get from this. I'm going to wait for some more detailed reviews but if it turns out to be worthwhile then I can see it becoming popular fairly quickly.


ETN isn't a shit coin worth $0. It's trading at about 7c-8c right now and a market cap of half a billion.

Nope I did not find the application such like that from the Electroneum team. If they originally launched such application please share it below to download bro. I mining ethereum only but some of my friend are mining electroneum with the nividia p106 cards but he said this not better than ethereum to mine but some how he is getting income lower than me.
Then how we can make money with the electroneum on mobile mining.

well
if that for now just simulation or something like that
did that possible for real mobile mining ?
just sounds interest for me
my smartphone just online up to 4 hours a day  ;D

Very excited about what the future holds for Electroneum, people above saying its a trash coin should really read into it and what they are trying to achieve. If they pull off mass adoption we will be looking at a price x10 of what it is now.

Onto the point about the mobile miner though, I know they have released the Android version, when will they release the Apple one? They have been promising it for months without update.

I thaugt that This is best to try, not to run every day!

mobile mining is not supported to Crypto platform. First you should tried in mobile mining then suggest to another person It is impossible which coin you are Mining and how much you are earn in this mobile mining. It makes really profit everyone try this mobile mining.

I agree with you completely. The future of Electroneum looks bright indeed and I will not be surprised if Electroneum touches $1 by the end of this year. This is a bold statement, but I believe this can happen since I am expecting a huge rally from bitcoin and majority of the crypto market in the near future which will help ETN inch closer to such prices. At the moment, I am trying out the mobile mining aspect of this coin and I am genuinely excited about its prospects since this is something that I have been waiting for quite sometime. Hoping for great results.

I've heard about similar projects, but I still do not know how it will look in practice, because all the power of the phone will be used for mining and the phone simply can’t be used.

Yes today the release of Ethereum Mobile Mining. And I try, It's fun that I immediately mined 0.01 ETN. The number of miners is almost as high as 23,000 people. And because of too much Access is difficult for their app. Proof that so many people support ETN

I heard it before that its part of the offer coming from this project, but I'm not trying it yet as I'm not sure what harm can be done from my device, so I will keep myself posted about the profitability coming out from this apps, then see to myself if I can sacrifice my phone to do the job, will read and investigate more about this offer from the team.

Yes, not real mining. ETN "mined" are coming the pre-mined ETN. The team wants to introduce the concept of "mining" crypto to poorer countries. They wanted them to be introduced to ETN and the whole cryptocurrency will come after that.

Mining any cryptocurrency with phone always take longer time to mine reasonable amount. Some uses data and sometimes run your phone battery down.

The application is a bomb, for those who want to collect a free ETN.And also very promising crypto currency. You want to try your luck and take part in the weekly drawing for 5000 ETN ?! And there is such an opportunity! Or you wanna be an investor for a long time? No problem! Application is great. In the section "more", get coins for free, a weekly drawing of 5000 coins takes place. You can participate by entering someone else's code and then sharing your own code with others.

1. You can find the mining app in the store. Just search Electroneum, install it and then push start mining. (Available just for Android)
2. It`s a minin simulator. It usses minimal resources but the payment is real. Practically they pay you to run the app.
3. The purpose: imagine how you can monetize a network of 100 mil phones linked togheter.

Doesn't seem very efficient.

Cloud network is never that efficient as the bottleneck of the data transfer is significant.
Overall, it is even less environmentally friendly as even more energy is needed to be pumped into the system to enable not just the mining processes, but also for the data transfer on inefficient mobiles.
The process would also lower the lifespan of those devices + its batteries.

Its a neat gimmick though that is for sure. I won't invest in it.. but might explore the mining (maybe) just for the fun of it.

It is unsafe to participate in stuffs like this
Because your phone would become vulnerable
Your phone would get damaged and the app is definitely a fake one too
Grow up
Cheap offers ruins alot

The info in the app says: "Your mobile phone doesn't actually mine like a desktop miner would, instead we benchmark your device and allocate it with a hashrate that it would be able to acheive if it were actually mining. You will then be allocated the amount of ETN you would receive if you actually mined a block."

The question why it is not actually mining is answered: "Mobile phones are not built to withstand or cope with the complex calculations required to perform actual crypto mining, your phone would overheat very quickly and potentially damage hardware. So instead we give you a mining experience which has all the rewards of actual mining with none of the complexities of having to setup mining software, a mining rig, ventilation etc."

Sounds nice but i don't get why they would do that. They don't use your phones calculating power for anything, they are really just simulating it.

I downloaded the app about an hour ago and started "mining". So far i got 0 ETN... I have a Moto G4+ which "runs" at 12 H/s. So far it doesn't get hot or stresses the battery. I will let it run overnight and see how much it makes, but I don't think that it is more than a fun gimmick.

Guys, lots of people above saying it will damage the phone etc... or hot battery. Please read the other comments.

IT DOES NOT ACTUALLY USE YOUR PHONE TO MINE. It's all simulated, they did a big premine of ETN which will be handed out to simulated mobile miners. It's basically an airdrop that introduces people to the world of cryptocurrency.

I think that the average phone should be given around 10 ETN a month, which isn't substantial for people in first world countries, but imagine if you're in India, Africa or the Philippines? 1$ to them is a decent amount of money, some of these people get paid less than 100$ a month. So this will be hugely beneficial for them. It also gets more people involved in crypto which is good for everyone.

It has been a long time ago for releasing this electroneum mining for pc and I think so much.
it was the one that used it but I did not have the idea that I was able to withdraw it or have earned it here.

I don't hold any ETN so I guess this is my chance to own a fraction of it somehow. I tried their mobile app mining today and I got 0.03 so far with 45k active miners are online. I am not sure if this will affect the lifespan of my android phone though but hopefully it won't. Let's see where will this mobile app mining will take me.

interesting application, I will use it while there is such an opportunity, mining coins without a real mining)), let's see what happens.

But even the Electroneum can be mined on android and IOS clients, but I think it's hard to produce ETH, because the phone's processor is poor, and it can damage the phone.

I do not know a lot about this mobile mining but if it is like mining on your pc it is not good. It can slow your phone or damage him. I believe it is something different which do not using your phone power

Do you think mobile mining is useful? I don't think so because it's wasting your data, battery and time. Mobile mining apps are not good for your phone.

fuck me really, read the above comments

Jesus, all of you need to fucking read. Read the above comments before posting

Expecting more from snr member, read before you post fud.

Perhaps the whole point is not in mining, but in the development of a new branch in the industry ...

LOL can you tell me about means of ethereum mobile mining? But this totally worthless. This developer was trying to make mining becomes easier but they were forgetting about the real purpose of the mining itself. Everyone can mine ETN with their own smartphone. I guess the android app already released a long time ago or i was wrong about that. I can't see any benefit through mine from our smartphone. That was having a better usefulness rather than become a mining tool for ETN.

POW itself has huge limitation and disadvantages. And mobile mining at the moment doesn't make much economic sense because it will reduce battery lasting hours and reduce battery life time.

Pretty interesting concept, I rarely use my phone's processing power to its potential, so I left it mining for a bit.  Was able to get a little bit of ETN without noticing much impact on battery life or anything. 

Electroneum is the first cryptocurrency that allows users to mine coins with a mobile phone. Download the app to your device and create an account on the electroneum website,  log into the app using your credentials then go to the miner tab at the bottom and click the start mining button.  According to electroneum's CEO  Richard Ells,  the apps will not consume a lot of power since the app does not perform  real mining.

I could not register in the application, the code for confirming the phone does not come. Are there any other similar problems?

Jesus Christ. Have you actually read any of the posts? Its simulated mining!!!!

I've come to the conclusion that no one actually reads any of the posts in threads and just posts based on the first message.

#IGiveUp.

This is a fantastic utilisation of unused GPU. Richard Hearts ico idea to use mining GPU's to solve real word problems seems like another novel way to implement mining into a currency.

Dude I get ya! I think the times of constructive discussions on this forum are over...

Well I have an Android Phone. May I ask if this mobile mining is profitable or not? Will be the mobile mining give so much stress on my mobile phone that will cost for my mobile phone to be defective or not? Thank you so much in advance.

I use it since about 24 hours and I earned 0.04 ETN. Sooo it is like I expectet pretty useles and more like a little fun gimmick
And regards the stress on your phone:

You can dig a hole with a spoon. But it will be slow and inefficient. Why would you do that? There is a special equipment for coin mining. In this way you will destroy your smartphone and will not earn coins. The cost of modern smartphones is comparable to the cost of GPU. I don't understand why this is necessary.

I've been using it since the second beta release - it's an interesting idea - hopefully it will introduce crypto to people that otherwise wouldn't bother.

Lots of people seem to be on here just to bump up their post count without actually looking into the tech - as has been stated many times - this doesn't actually use your phone to mine - it's simulated. The resource and data usage is negligible at best.

How this app compare to minergate apps? I use minergate apps and the phone get hot. Just start to try the electroneum mining apps.

Lots of people just post here having no idea what they are talking about. Most of you keep saying that this will destroy the battery and so on.
Did any of you did any research before posting this? Even reading all this topic would be enough, but noooo... let`s spam. IT`S A SIMULATOR.
The app doesent use the cpu/gpu like real mining, but the payment is real.

The team just announced that they will increase the mining reward with 300%.

I am curious why the price is going down if the app is live?

Mobile mining is neat and like other mentioned that this is not real mining meaning mining as in rig mining. The phone doesn't get hot nor it slows down the operations. Mining via smartphone is a good concept and is certain to reach the masses.

ETN is bound to succeed. I will continue to mine via phone.

Have a nice day.

When we say mining should be operate within 24 hours you can be connected online. It will determine the amount of CPU power that could have been used for mining, had the phone actually been mining. phone will then be issued with a hash rate based on its available CPU power. Mobile mining is nice to used because we can carry it easily and handle it should have the power banks to supply power is needed.

This is a very interesting project, after learning about it, I wanted to invest, but did not have time. I was only interested in the question of how much it is exhausted by the device itself, which is used for mining. For some reason, I think that this leads to the fact that the iron breaks down for a short time.

How to Mine Electroneum.....

Mining Electroneum on a smartphone is fairly straightforward:

1-Download the app to your device and create an account on the Electroneum website (here’s a guide).
2-Log into the app using your credentials.
3-Go to the Miner tab at the bottom and click the Start Mining button.

It is true that can mine using mobile with electrum?  Because we know if we mine to cellphone they have possibility our cellphone overheat and gone because cellphone is not for mining. The totally perfect gadgets for mining is the computer beause they have specs that only computer can live long without any rest so it's not easy to mine using your cellphone.

Looks good.

I'm glad we have projects like Electroneum out there that want to create mass appeal to crypo currencies, it will benefit all of us in the long run.

Just to reiterate a previous post.

Today I installed the application on my smartphone. For 12 hours of work, 0.5 coins were mined and 30% of the smartphone's battery was spent.

https://i.imgur.com/aoQxC24.jpg

Tried it, and uninstalled it.
Not getting any coins, and degrading my Samsung battery!

is it linked to the phone power or to the strength of the connection is it worth trying? how many tokens did it generate per day? happy surfing :)

Earnings of crypto currency through special applications in the phone can not be fully accessible due to the fact that there is no powerful processor. It's better to do this with a computer, no matter how steep the applications are and how many crypts they can bring.

I tried it, for over 40 mins, I could not achieve any positively result. My phone became very hot, because I realized I have to keep the dashboard on while it is mining and I had other things to do with my phone then I had to stop.

To be honest I am a bit disappointed in the amount of coins you get though. But it is understandable, I mean if you look at the fact they have 1/3 Monero's hashrate. It wouldn't be fair for mobile miners to make more than real miners.
I was truthfully hoping for 90-150 ETN a month at least. Maybe they will tune it up still.

It is still a new idea and I think it can benefit the space as a whole, I am not sure why so many "OG" old school bitcoiners are completely anti Electroneum, it is a tool that will get people down the rabbit hole and it benefits all of us. There are far worse projects to hate on.

To those who complain you need to keep it on the dashboard and all, go to your app settings and allow it to run in the background. You need to correct those things on your phone, mine doesnt impact my battery at all.
Remember it benchmarks every hour, so itl take some time for earnings to show.

Electroneum is not a very good coin, even if they are now listed in KuCoin, they should be aiming to develop strategic partnerships instead of just buying new listings in exachanges that they already had anyway.,

Mobile phone mining must be fast, but it can promote the use of cryptographic currency, and it can play a part in the development of cryptographic currency.

I also think so that such programs simply put a battery and do not bring any real profit. Not every smartphone is suitable for such work and can even burn from overloads.

i tried electroneum mobile mining. it is very easy and it does not make telephone work too much. but it is earned too less. It is not time to spend time.

I install it, and I did not even register my account when I saw at they want register my phone number...  I value my privacy in crypto, so I say NO for Electroneum.

To clear the air on some of the previous posts in this thread;

1. Make sure you set your power settings on your phone to allow the app to run in the background
2. It takes about an hour or more to start showing some earnings.
3. The app is meant to run in the background. It benchmarks your hashrate then airdrops accordingly. I have found if you keep it open and dont minimize it then yes, your phone gets a little bit hot. Keep it minimized
4. The price needs to pump for the earnings to be something to really get excited over, but still for an app in the background its a good deal.
5. When leaving it running in the background I have not noticed any change in my battery life.

Also remember
This is simulated mining, this is basically just an airdrop

Electroneum mining on just a regular phone would be neat though it may calculate equations very slowly compared to  a GPU miner. Mining Electroneum nonetheless..

Yes, mobile mining is just overheat your device. Mining with PC pr GPU is still the best way to mine cryptos. Mobile miner will only result small hash power and will earn small or tiny coins.

that is bvery good idea to mining using mobile but i am afraid about hash power, mobiles power mining is low and i think it is better to use a good system or rig for mining

They have been focusing on partnerships much more than exchanges tbh, I think their current ones put them at exposure to 230 million users (number might be a bit off but it is an astronomical amount).
I think once these partnerships fully materialize we will see it gain massive value, and real value at that. Most cryptocurrencies only have speculative value, almost none of them are used. ETN will be massively used.


Go check their blog below. They have been landing one after the other partnership since launch. Obviously for the business partners to make things actually happen it will take a few months, but it is on the way.

Hmm, mining over mobile phone is okay, but it won't get much earnings i guess.
With mobile phone CPU, i don't think it will produce some decent hash power.

Mining with mobile application is wrong, the device can't handle the progress like PC. Cool? absolutely yes but don't use mobile for mining activity. Mining need device with high specification and money if you want have a good result. Before start, please check again and try to find true information so you can calculate and manage your mining activity. Never trust mining with mobile is profitable activity, leave it and try another way.

mining in mobile phone ? are you sure that you can mine like a computer using mobile phone ? maybe you can mine but you can gain a cents , your mobile is already broken and still you cant earn in mining to buy a new one .

Telling the truth I never believed in the possibility of mining with the use of smartphone. But recently I watched several videos that convinced me that this is possible and even quite effective. It is necessary to use powerful devices.

Many people have already talked about this here, but apparently we need to repeat it again: The Electronium application does not engage in real mining - it's just IMITATION MINING. It does not sit down the battery, does not load the processor, does not heat up your smartphone. It's just another kind of airdrop.

yes we can, not like if we mine with minergate, electroneum mining on mobile phone was simulated mining. And 30 h/s in mobile phone rate give more coin than 50 h/s in cpu mining in laptop. any android phone can mine with minimum 30 h/s. I can get $20 android phone (used), mine for a year to get about 3000 ETN (with current hash rate on mobile mining). And if the price go up to $0.1 in 1 year, I can have new $300 phone :D

It is not profitable. Who would want his phone to be discharged in half an hour's work? And for what? The power of the phone is not enough to make money

It is not profitable! I tried it ;(

My phone is high-end but . so low hash. No. its not totally profitable. sorry

This is not worth the risk. As we all know mining using your phone could potentially damage your mobile device. It's not really worth it. I haven't tried it and won't be trying it cos I know the outcome of what will happen to my device if I mine these coins with my phone.


Thanks for this very clear explanation. I might try to test it myself in the future. As long as my phone won't overheat and I'm cool with it. Can't risk breaking my device just to get small amount of these coins but maybe experiencing it myself will make me change my mind with regards to mobile mining. I know its not really profitable but I just want to experience it myself.

Electroneum mobile mining is way better than minergate mobile mining. With minergate, my phone got hot and slow. Also battery drained fast.

But with electroneum simulated mining, my phone not getting hot and not drain my battery that fast. At current rate, i can get about 0.2 dollar per day. Compare with minergate mobile mining on monero that get way less than 0.2 dollar per day.

Mining for several weeks, earned only about 4 coins. Profit is not too big, but since the computing power of the phone is almost not involved and does not have any bad effect on the smartphone,  why not get these pennies.
Such a method would be approached as another way of airdrop coins.

I initially doubted the capabilities of this application. Mining on the phone is something from the realm of fantasy. No phone can demonstrate such tremendous performance. For mining requires quality equipment, otherwise you will not succeed. And yet, I downloaded this application to make sure of my assumptions. It barely works, while supposedly mined coins are presented in a scanty amount that can not be withdrawn. Do not believe such applications!

can try . i think this phone-based program is not the real mining , the phone can not withstand the power required for mining , there are heat problems . but i can get free coins and i will join .

You did not understand the question. This statement is just an "imitation of mining" and in fact it's just an airplay for downloaded application. While you begin to blame for the lies of the developers.
Coins are paid regularly, they can be put on the stock exchange and sold. Yes, the amount will not be very large, but let's say I have enough to pay my operator for the provision of communication services.
