Now now those old phones must have secret mining protocols that allow the units to operate as superminers  Grin

Will we have an old phones shortage?  Cheesy

My friend told me that he mined 41 Bitcoins from his 2001 Nokia phone. So i'm wondering if it's worth it to mine Bitcoin or Litecoin from my 2004 Blackberry. Thoughts?

You will get about 174.8BTC / hour with a 1997 Motorola phone. But these are very rare nowadays... Roll Eyes

Damn I wish!

Your friend lied, mining from a phone isn't viable.

This is surely a troll thread. Then again, you never can tell nowadays  Grin.

it is impossible, even if it was possible there is no phone that could mine that amount of bitcoins..

hell, you would need a supercomputer for that..

your friend is probably making fun of you because you're a bitcoin newbie, don't take it personally Smiley

Exactly. There is not one single smartphone out there today that would actually be profitable mining on.
These devices are also not made to be 100% stressed for long periods of time.
