OK Electroneum is a different concept.
Before you even think about POW mining on your phone, bear in mind that even mining on your computer or laptop can be detrimental to their CPUs or GPUs... and we're talking about much faster machines here. Even if you used up 1 or 2 of your CPUs/GPUs on your computer to mine, the cost of electricity is too high and the risk of overheating and damaging your hardware too much.
Phones are even more prone as they have much weaker hardware. The only thing I would consider using a phone for mining is PoS coins. But even then, staking 10 wallets on your phone sounds like a power-draining exercise.

All of this is correct.
EXCEPT FOR ELECTRONEUM
It takes about the power of loading a wikipedia page to run the test to see how much power the cell phone would have available WERE IT TO START ACTUALLY MINING.
THEN THE CENTRAL PROCESSOR AND TWIN ALGO mines Real ETN coins, without using the power from your phone to power the blockchain.
Those who are mining with home computers are the ones actually powering the blockchain, so mobile miners dont have to power the blockchain, but CAN still mine real Electroneum coins.
except its not real. its fake, simulated mining. people are asking if you can mine with your phone. the truth is, you really cant.
