Title: Mining Bitcoins on basic phones Post by: Polycoin on February 27, 2014, 05:12:46 PM My friend told me that he mined 41 Bitcoins from his 2001 Nokia phone. So i'm wondering if it's worth it to mine Bitcoin or Litecoin from my 2004 Blackberry. Thoughts?

But these are very rare nowadays... ::) (If you were serious, be aware that your friend is making fun of you) Title: Re: Mining Bitcoins on basic phones Post by: hostmaster on February 27, 2014, 06:55:35 PM My friend told me that he mined 41 Bitcoins from his 2001 Nokia phone.

There is not one single smartphone out there today that would actually be profitable mining on. These devices are also not made to be 100% stressed for long periods of time. Title: Re: Mining Bitcoins on basic phones Post by: Kiki112 on February 27, 2014, 09:00:37 PM it is impossible, even if it was possible there is no phone that could mine that amount of bitcoins..
hell, you would need a supercomputer for that.. your friend is probably making fun of you because you're a bitcoin newbie, don't take it personally :) Title: Re: Mining Bitcoins on basic phones Post by: hilariousandco on February 27, 2014, 10:00:53 PM Your friend lied, mining from a phone isn't viable.
