mining using applications on smartphones is nonsense, what you get is no more than a penny. very unreasonable you can get a pretty big profit even if you use more than 10 smartphones, don't expect too high. I think Google's decision to forbid and delete the application is quite correct, some of them are nothing more than fraudulent applications that waste user time. I think that is indeed the main focus of Google and Facebook when the issue of blocking first appeared, they did not want to be one of the platforms that support fraud through the crypto industry, and we as a community must support that, so that crypto can be accepted in the global community in the future.

This Is Promissing Project
it can happen because the application is not suitable for use, it even disappoints its users, so it should be noted, news like this should not need you to be the subject of discussion, because later there will be many responses popping up ... !!

Googl has always not been friendly of cryptocurrencies in general, latest update is this: Google has placed a ban on mining apps hosted on google play store https://news.bitcoin.com/google-bans-cryptocurrency-mining-apps-from-play-store/?utm_source=Google%20Bans%20Cryptocurrency%20Mining&utm_medium=telegram&utm_campaign=Telegram%20Channel
1 thing I don't understand is how profitable are those android mining apps,  it's even difficult to make profit while using PC  💻  not to talk of android phones 📱.
Those companies that are launching these android mining apps are just deceiving their users
Exactly. The only profitable party is the seller and / or developer of such an application. Users who believe in such applications only in vain lose the resource of their smartphone. Some time ago there was an increased interest in the same kind of software on the PC, which also suggested using downtime for mining. As a result, only prematurely failed video cards due to constant load.

Most of the apps removed are very scammish and users gave quite a lot of complain to the Playstore support, which I feel it's a good thing they've been removed rather than been left on the app deceiving users.

Wow, this is the 3rd ban I have heard of in just 1 week. Just like I said earlier, you wont blame companies who update their policies against the free will of trading or mining cryptocurrencies on their system, the noise is really too much, the chaos, the troubles it causes. There haven't been a well defined pattern, or policy that guides its existent on any platform. If the government can aid in taking over the existence and control of bitcoin or cryptocurrencies in general, I believe this will go a long way for bitcoin and cryptocurrency survival.

does mining on android phones produce ?, which I know mining using a pc with vga has also been hard to produce. I know most are using fraud-based mobile  mining applications

I think Google wants to save their customer from the heat of their Android phone because if you were mining bitcoin with your Android, it will make your phone too hot and maybe it could explode because it's very hot to touch. Although I never try this, I think it's not profitable if you use android phone to mining bitcoin or the other coin because you will only get small hashrate to mining and you never get the profit. But if you only want to know the process, then it is fine, and you can try that app but you cannot do this again because Google bans the bitcoin mining apps.

The reason are cool to me, because so many of the app are scam and are damaging the image of cryptocurrency, we have other apps on Google play store still hosting and running fine ,so if the ban is mainly on mining app then there is much reason to protect people from been scam, except if the company is fully verify to have full an integrity outstanding.

The question is ,is there even any working mining app for bitcoin ? I guess not ,Google ban move is not that bad because I'm thinking those apps might be phishing apps or something else like virus ,malware e.t.c  only stupid people will go to playstore looking for Btc mining apps when its impossible.

The exploits in the playstore are mostly phishing, we know that tapping through the phone will not generate any profit. It's about Google trying to protect business and users. In addition, it's possible that someone's phone is being exploited for exploits with exploit software is becoming very popular and Google does not want to have anything of that kind. I know Google is banned to exploit electronic money from mobile phones in general because mobile phones are not designed for in-depth training, so even on smartphones will lead to the destruction of the application. This is where Google's action bans the app from exploiting e-money because it does not have a good benefit for Android smartphone users because I think mobile phones are not a good tool to exploit. .

For me, this Google's actions is completely right. Mining apps should not be accepted widely. This will be easy for hackers. Thus, Google just protects itself and customers.
True, some mining apps especially via android, what can they do with that. if we think realistic, even with GPUs only give a little amount of coins that we get. How we can get big amount with android if there are no something hidden in there.

Android banned the mining app was also right. I think Google had a private direction to develop.Besides, maybe google don’t want to refer Bitcoin- a cryptocurrency, not under the government’s controlling. It is obviously safe choice.

Bitcoin mining on smaller devices such as  smart phones and personal computers has become very popular in recent times. I still see people mining with their smart phones but it is not  really profitable considering the amount of energy it consumes.

I think there are maybe a reason for google playstore to ban crypto mining apps.
Such as malware can be found if the developer of the apps made some shady apps.
A security of the apps must be audited first to become available in playstore i guess.

I don't believe its advisable to use phone for mining of bitcoin considering the value of the RAM and draining of the battery due to a smaller hash rate per seconds and its obvious the phone is going to get heated up after series of mining I think the decision taken by google to ban those mining app is the right decision.

This is bad news for many finished ICOs. I have seen numerous mining apps in advertisements and their end is nearing. Apps associated with storm and electroneum will experience a huge dump if this proceeds. Nonetheless, Google should have done this way back and not just now.

It is funny how people are making FUDs about this. Why is this a bad news for these many finished ICOs? Google banned mining apps on android phones, so? What is the big deal? It is not like a lot of people are favoring to mine crpyto currencies on their phone. These mobile phones or android phones are not really compatible to mining, I did try mining on my Oppo f7 and well, it is a waste of time. Rather than wasting your time on mining on your phone, invest on real mining rigs, electroneum will not be affected by these.

It's also a good idea to eliminate dummy mining for bitcoin that you are asking to make a bitcoin but it's not true and it's just a fake so google did a good job of removing these trash apps.
