You better just throw your phone by the window, at least you won't waste energy.

If people are willing to spend upwards of $1000 on an ASIC miner just to join a pool and get a steady stream of $10+ rewards I think the best mining you could do with the processing power of a smartphone is to drop it in the dirt and accidentally dig out a pound coin.  Smiley

If mining with a pencil and paper (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3dqhixzGVo) is possible, I'm sure a smartphone can mine. But I can guarantee you it won't be effective. You're just going to waste power and life of your phone.

Wow nice video !!!


Ts you can't make profitable mining even with a good pc .

It is impossible to mine with smartphone. Actually it is also difficult to mine through ordinary PC too.

Even a PC might fry with the mining difficulty now-a-days. A smartphone? BOOM.  Tongue

As odolvlobo explained, the mining difficulty only affects the number of coins you mined but not the heat generated or power consumption.
So if you PC is overheated mining bitcoin now, the same PC under the same configuration would be overheated mining 2 years ago. Smiley

I advice NOT to mine with a smartphone. My friend was doing some experiments coding a version of cgminer for his s4 and guess what, he fried the CPU. PoW is just not for smartphones, it's pointless.
It is pointless to experiment on a CPU which is designed to be operated at low power and low efficiency with no cooling. Even PoS is pointless since you can't run it unless you have lots of ram and space for blockchain.

Your smartphone will burn out itself before you can get any significant amount of bitcoin.
Even altcoin mining is not profitable with a smartphone.

It won't be possible. Now mining with old PC is  not possible also. For mining you need  PC high configuration and Graphics card. So think about PC and forget about Smartphone.
