how much we talking in rewards? 🤔
Discussion
Oh, I have no clue, I imagine it's negligible but it's possible.
Like most mining in general you probably won't make positive net gains unless you scale it, and join pools.
It might be beneficial if you run it off of solar, or some other cost efficient electricity method.
I only mention it because one cpu = one vote with monero, anyone can mine it whereas with Bitcoin in the hopes to be profitable you need an Asic.
I think there's a coin specifically designed for phone mining called pi coin, or something like that but I haven't looked much into it.
i already did pi and sold my coins from mining in the past. right now it's miniscule it's not worth it for pi.
The only benefit of mining monero is you get kyc free coins that you can use, or convert.
As far as fiat you'll break even or lose but I'd say keep half, convert half to BTC to get it KYC-Free.
what apps do you recommend then for Android
