Bitcoin Forum

There are already apps out there with which you can mine. I got one for Scrypt mining.

The Future of Funding & Promotions: Micro-Currency (company/charity/group based alt coins)

Intro:Anyone that is new to the altcoin world, I just want to let you know that there are literally HUNDREDS of altcoins and they are all essentially just copies of Bitcoin. Not many are like this, with new structures that allow for growth outside of mining (which is a techy term for producing coins) and trade. Creating an economy outside of mining, sales and forex is unheard of outside of these new coins. Your company could be one of the first companies to make one of its own.

Altcoins will allow charities and organizations to OWN a currency that they control. You will not answer to us, it will be yours. All you need to make one is people from this website, or one of your friends that understands C++ coding needs to read this thread, then do a little more research on this website, then they can make one for you.

And to anyone new to the Bitcoin world, Bitcoins are worth $200 each (for now) and you can trade Altcoins for Bitcoins

So, everyone is hearing or has heard about Bitcoins. The Silk Road is down, Bitpay is up and ATMs are actually being placed in the streets (at least one in Canada).

Pretty soon the only question left about Bitcoin will be "How do I get them?" and sure, the answer "You mine them or buy them" works for most people right now...

But what about when Bitcoin is being considered by people in poverty as a means to pull themselves up by their boot straps? What about when it is being talked about in every highschool in the country, and kids too young to work and not computer literate enough to mine want to get them?

The answer will be "Alt-coins". Altcoins are not the competition of Bitcoin, Altcoins are the future of Bitcoin. In the future altcoins will each have a "niche", so as to attract new people to Bitcoin, as well as support lifestyles of people who can not mine or buy the coins.

Devcoin and Tagcoin look promising. As Writing and Rewards are both great incentives, but what about the other coins? What value are they to someone who does not have the ability to mine?

Schools could use coins as booster promotions, by asking students to use their home computers to mine for coins that can be spent at the school. And the school can have a program where 25% of the coins are generated to a wallet for them. Then they make an altcoin thread and advertise it in the morning announcements. School funding problem SOLVED.

Or imagine if a mom and pop sandwich shop did the same. And offered sandwhiches for coins? They could not only boost local bitcoin interest, they would make money on a coin that they produced.

Lightcoin aims to develop and introduce mining (lightmining) on mobile devices Blockchain (Lightchain on mobile technology).

LOFL
Their modular devices have ASICs. Cellular ASIC mining is coming.

They say they will award the first person that makes an ARA design that is for something new for cellular, then you can get $100,000. Mining is new right?

Cellular Asics ? that is definitely something new lol

You can mine with your phone with some apps, but... to gain ~1satoshi, do you think that's a good idea to have your phone at 99-100% of their power?  ;)

Not only ASICs. These are MODULAR PHONES. Meaning, if you want a new camera, buy one and slip it in. If you want a bigger battery, buy one and slip it in. If you want a thumb print lock, buy one and slip it in.

Such modularity , much wow . But on serious note , I think if such phones are possible then its good because you don't have to pay for all the extra crap that you don't want.

Pretty soon there will be Droids coming out that allow you to mine Altcoins. :)

I remember there were a few coins in the past that attempted to make it where you could mine on your phone, but the GPUs were never big enough. But now that is not a problem, so, does anyone know of anyone that has plans to do anything using this new development?

wow .. this is the first time I heard from you, and I have never had a mind that could be used in a prison bitcoin. if there is, I hope it can also dilakukkan in my country. This would be very helpful to those who are in it, so that when they have free better purpose

Now we need a coin that can only mine with phone then it would have some value..

Here is the link to an Android app to mine on your phone. It works well I have used it. I get about 4.5khs with it, so not much power, but fun to play with.
