Bad idea. You need 2.1 million average smartphones to get a bitcoin.

more like 2 Billion smartphone to get a bitcoin..

I'm sure todays smartphone industry has lots to offer in terms of recycling and reusing old devices.
The companies doesn't care about recycling, and they strongly dislike "reusing old devices".
They want to earn money.

Wow that's new Didn't even know you can mine bitcoins with your phone lol i guess gl with that.
I tried scrypt mining from my Samsung Galaxy S3. I got like 0.2 khash/s. So, no, don't do it.

Nice, 0.2 khash/s. Now we need a smartphone coin and 0.2 khash/s might be among the highest..
Lol, I'd like to see the one actually succeeding in making a "smartphone exclusive coin"! Cheesy
(Because it's not possible, since any computer can pretend to be one, just as all smartphones are computers)

What about using apps as a tools to seperate smartphone and computer? easy to bypass?
Yep, wouldn't even be slightly hard to do (for someone with that kind of knowledge).

Totally very possible and easy to do.

The phone app have to identify itself passing the information thru the network. A programmer just have to listen the network "conversation" and learn what information is used to identify/authenticate it as a phone app and insert it into his fake phone app.

Mining idea with old computer has been dead long ago and you are thinking about mining with your phone. It is really funny.

I see that the companies (like in any other tech field) are trying to reduce the size, but increase the quality.
Do you think that at some point the bitcoin mining can evolve into a process that can be executed by a smartphone or a device of that size without the need of extreme power supply? And what's the future of the bitcoin mining hardware?

That would be fun, but then we would need the biggest smartphone to hash...

Lol, something like that would do the work then.

I think that it is possible because I saw a chart that shows the mining speeds of mobile procesors. Though not sure why you would want to even try this because it's pretty much pointless?

Again, I have no intentions of doing so. I was wondering if that theory could be physically developed one day. That's it. Smiley

You want to mine bitcoins on your phone? I guess you want your phone killed ?   Roll Eyes

No, I was just wondering if this theory could be possible one day. Everything is getting to a pocket size, it's natural for the hardware to evolve into something that you can take on the go.
