So, I'm looking at cryptocurrencies again, and setup a miner for Magi, and thinking, "hey, this is a CPU coin thats supposed to be fair", I decided to take it to its logicial extreme, and see if I could get the miner to run under android (specifically my Nexus 5).
The answer?
Yup:
With some pain, I got the miner to compile against bionic and run non-rooted (currently you have to use adb to start the daemon, but writing a frontend shouldn't be hard).
Here's the device specs on CPU power:
/proc/cpuinfo info:
I'm honestly not sure if this would be superuseful, but I won't mind building this into an actual APK. Figure tons of us have old Android phones that aren't in use anymore ...
If somebody would like to test this a little go ahead!

Yes! I've been waiting for this moment for weeks! I have at least three different phones waiting to be abused
What do we need to do? Have you created an .APK? Do you have the full code, if it's possible for me to create the .apk in Android Studio? I have adb installed as well, but have never really messed around with it
