Mining on a cell phone

[Aabcde]

Mining on the phone is very troublesome in my opinion. How come when the phone we use every day has to be mining Pi on the sidelines of time.
Electroneum did it first and it has been proven that it is very good by issuing a special mining cellphone.
But here we don't know what the future can be achieved by Pi when we continue mining on the phone. Whether it will be valuable or not is not clear. Unless Pi already exists on the market and can be sold when the minimum withdrawal from mining is met.

Real mining in smartphone will not be profitable now and i think it might take years to be made smartphone for mining but i think no one will focus on and smartphone will be used for what was created first time only. Possible to be some projects that give coins via an app but that is not real mining. About PI coin i don't know what to say, i had the app last year but i delete it because i not like how is made and i don't know if have a chance now.

Dude, this is a big hoax. The processing power of mobile phones is very low. You need a lot of processing power to mining. People dream, but it's wrong. Your cell phone may burn. Never mind that. They can do it with malware.

If that is to happen then I will be starting my new company called "Mango".
Yes! It is the new brand of smartphone where you could destroy it with mining coins. It could be bought for a cheap price so that you wont regret destroying it over and over again.  

Yeah! Smartphones use chargers only for them to have power and the battery's capability cannot take what the mining power needs.
Perhaps there will be a way to direct the power from the outlet to the smartphone.
Oh hey, they might call it "computerphone".

in my opinion this will only be a waste of time, especially the effects on your smartphones will certainly quickly decrease the life of its use in other words it will be easily damaged, because smartphones are not intended for mining.

I think calling it "mining" is a misunderstanding. The application that we download to a mobile phone does not use the battery at all. It's just not "mining" and it works like a faucet. We just launch the application once a day and enable the calculation of coins. Very similar to normal faucets, but here we have an application for it.

if this is similar to "faucet", still it's all a waste of time unless the results are worth the time spent (can get profit).

if this is true, then it will only make the cellphone you have short-lived. as we know that mining needs hardware that is active for 24 hours, and that will make your cell phone work hard. Well, if it works, I don't know whether the results are the same as what you want or not. I suggest to look for other ways to mining

As far as I know, this project is appearing all over the forum, even in my local board. They are claiming that mining this coin is easy and won't do excessive task to your phone. Though I haven't tried it yet since they are going to do their KYC soon and as much as I like the concept of their project, KYC is not for me. Some members of our local board said that it is better than ETN when it comes to saving power and battery.

Mining on mobile is an ineffective and inefficient way of not generating more than using a mining rig. But if their project is running on the mining cloud, it's like no more investment. And not a recommendation because it endangers the phone components if used mining with heavy except the cloud earlier.

I do not think this thing is going to work because the ability of our cellphone is much more lower than computer. Computer Mining needs an high ends specification of PC. So, it will probably need a high end cellphone also for you to be able to mine. If you force your phone to mine for you, it might be broken because it cannot handle that kind of work load.

I won't try to mining on a cell phone because I don't want to make my phone damage. If I have more than 5 mobile phones, perhaps, I will consider mining with a mobile phone, but since I only have 1 cell phone, I don't want to try it. Mining on a mobile phone is not recommended because you don't get a nice reward, and I think there are more disadvantages that you will get if you still want to try. Perhaps, if there is a mobile phone design for mining on a cell phone created, I think that can help you to mining Pi on the mobile phone.

Mining on a phone would not be profitable in a long time run it would damage the phone due to excessive rig and damage the cell,  also the hashrate very low invariably very difficult to earn some coins mining involves deployment of mining rigs with high power consumption.
Let us careful and not be decieved by some app developers who are after the numbers of downloads to earn their bucks.

It's not true at all. As far as i know when that coin use a good algo that creates efficiency and that will not make your phone will be overheat caused by mine for 24 hours. Some people have already tried to use their phone to mine ETN in the past and it looks like they can still running until now. But just try to use an old phone will much better.
what makes coin that already mentioned by OP is not worth to mine caused by it has no liquidity.

[samuraijin]

I don't know why I never dared to risk installing applications for mining on my cellphone, worried that there was a virus and taking my funds in my cellphone including my online wallet inside, I often hear PI networks but it seems that altcoin is still not listed on the exchange, so it's not too also interesting for me to do mining there

[livingfree]

Pi network? this isn't different from the other mining simulation that was introduced before or it's totally different from electroneum? op lacks of details of what you're trying to say in here. You just want to attract users to download that app.

I will not download anything related to crypto except the wallet apps that I trust because apps like this can easily use your phone for their own agenda. Unless someone will explain this clearly to me.

This is definitely true. I have done that before and I only ended up with my mobile phone broke which is really frustrating. There's no app right now which could really mine a profitable coin. Our mobile phone specs couldn't reach and provide the specs needed in mining. We shouldn't trust mining apps which are just downloadable online. We should also be careful because some apps are risky.

[Doell]

will look in vain AFAIK mining on the cellphone is enough to drain the battery hot quickly and explode ,I also read a lot of news results are not good enough friend and will damage other components on your cellphone so sad ,although one day it promises but it still certainly does't match expectations or accumulations have been given throw your time friend

[FireBallex]

There might come a time where mining on smartphones will be possible either with a new algorithm or just better hardware but now it's not possible, every new projects claiming you can mine on phone are using cloud mining service

[comchien]

Pi is really not valid and has not been traded, so digging on the phone is not recommended, because it can affect the operation of the phone and it does not have a value.

[totoy4741]

There is one app I know that can mine BTC in phone as well. The app name is cryptotab which was first released in PC and now available for IOS and Android Phone. I actually have not able to mone any satoshi yet but one of colleague that it is actually working and she was able to withdraw from it.

You do not need to waste time with this way of mining because it will not make you profitable. Mining on a phone is a bad idea because the processor chip of the phone is very poor and it is not enough to perform mining. Even if you try to do it, it will only bring you a few cents, and your phone will quickly be damaged. It is best to make bounty and airdrop, you can make more money than this mining method

Pi too is not an actual mining. It's a mining simulation and Pi is still not a coin with blockchain or even a token. The team is creating the hype before launching their token. They are enforcing users with KYC for getting the launched tokens in the past. It might be to avoid users with multiple IDs getting rewarded but it also would be risky to give your KYC to someone for that small amount of coin value.
