Do not waste your time on cloud mining apps, most likely a scam

[Zreszko]

I thought it was real mining (using computing power), but it turns out it is not real, and the mining process doesn't make any sense.

The term mobile mining has been misused for years to lure beginners into watching ads or paying for fake hashrate. Real bitcoin mining requires asic hardware because the network difficulty is way too high for any mobile processor to contribute even a single satoshi to a pool. These apps are basically just databases with numbers that change on the screen to create an illusion of profit. It is good that you shared these screenshots to warn others because new users often mistake cloud mining for a legitimate passive income

Poor orientation has made many people do things they have never done before and I think the more people innovate this ideas into worthless things, the more people want to fall for this scams. I remembered seeing market sellers in real life tapping their phones back in late 2024 and early 2025, what were they doing? Mining and making more coins, I don't think there is one functional app about mining that is working till date, all dead and forgotten.

You have seen that everywhere is silent and there has not been any popular mining going around. Very soon, they will launch one out and out of excitement people will join and do what they want. You can't really tell people what they want to do, they will do it the way they like especially when that popular mining app paid some people money, PI coin. PI is trading ons some exchanges with billions of market cap, I have never seen any scam coin like that in my life.

It is not just about cloud mining app, but including everything that is called clue mining. Since I have known about bitcoin and other coins few years ago, what I know about cloud mining is that they are the honeypots of scammers. They will tell you that it is free, you will join and see premium services thier just to attract you to pay them money. Almost all if them more than 99.99% among them are scam. People are only wasting their money or time on the them.

Yes and for me what I think is that the term cloud is symbol of scammers that focus on mining to cheat their victims, this are known fact because ever since I know about cloud mining, nothing positive have happened from that sectors other than tins of complaints of being a scam.

You are right cloud mining is the honeypot for scammers and we need to be well informed on the various and current updates scammers use not only with cloud mining scheme.

I don't know how profitable this mining can be but for those that are making small small profits from mining crypto apps should continue trying their best to make money and while investing their realized funds on other cryptocurrency projects like Bitcoin which should be the number one for anybody. I think due to scam and so many fake promises that have been given to miners and not fulfilled, several fans and participants have left mining alone for those who can be patient to take their precious time to mining what they don't know if its going to be profitable.

This is not about cryptocurrency mining apps but about cloud mining as a project and wave that make mining achievable with mobile phones, but from what we have experience alot of them are just scam since they are like investments, and many Ponzi schemes have sprung up from them in recent times.

Even the crypto mining app we talked about are not perfectly functional 100% majority of them just end at testnet stage or after the bounty.

Although we can not deny the fact that we have some of them that may be development-oriented and with a long-term operations blueprint to run with, those are the relatively successful and known among them.

Most of those could mining platform promise passive and easy income by just mining on their platform using their phones. Which usually ends as scam and this is common type of frauds we have seen for many years in this industry.

Many of those project didn't past on bounty stage or on testnet and we could see that they are not created to last for long term.

Although we can't also deny that there are legitimate cloudmining platform, but I really think its not worth it to invest since profitability is declining. So its better for us to be vigilant and cautious on the risk brought up by cloud mining scams and better threat it as high risk investment which better to avoid.

I don't know the current situation or whether platforms like that are still popular. As far as I remember, maybe in late 2019 to early 2020, quite a few cloud mining platforms emerged. At that time, on social media and in crypto groups, many were sharing referrals from mining accounts. I don't know whether they really paid or were a scam. But with the convenience offered, it most likely will not produce anything.

Mining is profitable but we know that there are a lot of scammers here so users are deprived of their rewards after mining for a long time. If a good project like Bitcoin mining can be related to patience for a long time, then there is a risk of profit at some point. But we can already see that in most cases there are some projects in which after mining users for a long time, they make various promises and later deprive them and cheat them. I have been mining for a long time but could not make much profit from it like Pi mining, people have been doing it for a long time but very few people have been rewarded here. However, those who have a lot of patience are the ones who mine for a long time, but they do not know whether they will be able to profit in the end and whether they will get the reward, so I think it is a waste of time here.

Some people are like you in that they are angry about mining plans that need spending over long time which cannot be paid back with ease. I agree that apps may be time wasters, but would also like to tell you that reason behind other way is that Bitcoin mining is what causes money to think other way. It is not game but real business which is difficult and out of which miners have got money, not with help of middle team, but with help of rules.

Anyway, to my mind, when project lacks seen code base or real market value which you can really see on exchange it is likely only helping makers to get payment in ads. After all you are right most of people would just get along better with keeping what works or with getting some skill info over time before using some new tap to mine apps.
