Mining with mobile device is like drinking water with the spoon. You`d better buy some good ASIC/gpu and don`t waste your time

Why on earth would you use your mobile phone for mining? That makes no sense and it's not worth waisting time and your mobile phone. If you realy want to do serious mining get some proper equipement. Although if I were in your place I wouldn't mining at all. These days if you are not having a farm it's just not profitable enough.

Think that better question here is why to mine something with mobile device.
If someone want to mine better invest in some rig and then start mining with mobile devices (phones and tablets) is waste of time better spend that time on faucets then you will more with this method rather then with mining on your phone.

Definitely, it is more advisable to use pc than using mobile phones for easy and safe mining. And you should expect for high electric bills if you start into mining investment because possible that your pc will run for a whole day mining operation that certainly add cost to your expenses. But it still be worthy because the more you have a mining pc installed the more hash power you've got and a big chances that you can mined more coins compared to used only one pc.

Is mining with mobile device a profitable venture today? I read a bit about this and learned that Monero maybe worth mining. then there's Electroneum as well. I wanted to know from other's experience.

One might ask why spend on buying phones. Instead get a PC. Thing is I have few old phones that I can't sell, I want to see possibility of getting some cost back before giving/throwing them away

at this total network size, anything less than a dedicated mining device is ultimately a waste of time Sad  you just wont be able to compete with a device designed to hash; your device is essentially emulating the same process. dont do this. besides being inefficient, using your device in this manner will degrade it prematurely. they arent designed for the load the emulation process puts on a non dedicated device.

No i will not suggest anyone to mine bitcoins with mobile devices unless you want to destroy the device.
there's not a proper colling in mobile devices and it might get into bad position,

Mining isn't bad but its all depends. Its not only bitcoin we can mine other alt-coin i myself mining XMR ( Monero ). You can earn some profit with the help of mobile device. But it can be effected on your mobile battery.  I think we should use the PC with high specs if we want to get some profit after all from the mining.

It will make your phone damaged, try buying a VGA Card to start mining.
VGA Card? Now I'm confused, we all know that a Phone has a built-in Hardware components, including the CPU, Memory, the camera, right? So why the heck are you recommending this person to buy a freaking VGA Card?

That's hilarious, I don't want to be rude man but this is a serious matter.
             You're actually right! Since PC is more recommendable rather than mobile phone, aside from that there's a lot of specs disadvantage from mobile phone compared to PC. It will also be rough for your mobile phone to be used in mining altcoins because it is too way impossible to mine bitcoin by those specs.

if you will mine bitcoin , it's totally impossible , but alt coins like ( electrunem ) yes you can , but save your phone and buy ASIC or GPU it's better

Mining for any coins like btc that are heavily rely on CPU or GPU power is not a practical model on mobile, however there could be other intelligent way of mining, like play a game, watch an ad, a bit like, proof of attention or time.

Friend, its utter waste to mine monero using your mobile phone. Because it will take years for you to mine one monero using that. For mining monero you should use your pc. But you can mine electroneum using your mobile phone. That's what the developers claim about it. Even its mobile wallet has got the mining feature in it. Its blockchain will go live from 1st November. After that you can try mining it with your mobile.

To mine 1 ethereum coin using the gpu of a 500$ nvidia GTX1080 graphics card it takes 2 months. The gtx1080 can crunch 2 roughly 25.000.000 hashes per second.

Sure, there are ethereum miners for android (look for minergate on google play).

Ethereum has been designed to make it impossible (at least… none succeded until now) to be mined using specialized hardware chips designed explicitly for the mining task, so the graphics card GPU miner, for ethereum is still the most powerful miner you can get.

For bitcoin this is not true: GPUs are outperformed (the same way a gpu outperforms a phone) by dedicated ASIC miners which are a thousand times faster than GPUs.

Now: both coins have in common that they automatically get more hard to be mined to compensate the introduction of more powerful hardware: there is a predetermined number of coins to be generated globally every day: you just get a slice of this pie and its size is proportional to the amount of computing power you can offer compared to the total amount provided by the rest of the world.

Miners are in a continuos competition one against the other in getting the most powerful hardware they can and the cheapest electricity bill.

Today it is practically impossible to mine bitcoins without using ASIC miners: it takes months to get one bitcoin using an ASIC miner, it takes decades using a GPU and well… a phone is as useful as a stone for mining bitcoin.

Moreover: keeping an ASIC miner running, today has electricity costs high enough to make it more convenient to simply buy bitcoins at the regular markst price, unless you live in a place where electricity costs are really low (read: China)… or unless you get your miner powered by solar panels. But you need hundreds of asic miners to get some serious money, today, and they aren't cheap.

I don't see that mobile device is a good way for mining because Bitcoin mining is a serious business now and we should leave it for those who treat it in such way. Mining on a single Android device would take nearly 1+ year to generate the revenue of $10 to $100 so I would not recommend it.

However, there is a good news for you. There are some ongoing projects which might help you earn handsome profits by selling the SMS capacity of your device and network operator. However, everything is now in the beta phase and might take some more time to roll out.

I think Samsung has already started mining with some of their old mobile phones, sort of doing re-cycling. But I don't know what much hash power it can produced though or it is profitable or not. They are just doing some experience to recycle old phones or course to become environment friendly. Monero has been breaking grounds with its browsing mining which turns out to be profitable. But mining with mobile phone, I haven't seen any reports yet.

EDIT: Here's the link: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/2017-10-29samsung-builds-bitcoin-mining-rig-using-old-phones-2331426

That's really good. And to me it seems positive if they allow to update a lighter version of software that is optimised for mining, it may turn out good for mining some altcoins.

That was too risky to do, mobile are not design for mining, no cooling system, and less hash power due to limitation on processor.

Let's say you can mine AltCoin, with very low difficulties setting, however for Bitcoin, it was mission impossible for now.

Perhaps we have to wait another 2 years for the innovation of Mobile phone for mining purposes.

It’s actually legit. I am also doing mining on my own mobile device. It’s more convenient I think and I no longer need to buy or invest in expensive devices such as processors and cpus so I guess it’s good.

Its not big but we can have profit coming from that but we need to study first their site for the safety of our money because some mining are going to scam after a few weeks or a month only so invest if you see the proof first then try it ,its risky but we can have profit try also in coinpot there's a mining in doge,litoshi and btc

I have searched a lot of things online to help my phone work and make money. But almost paid applications will catch us shopping, doing tasks, watching videos. download application. But there is no mining with mobile device
