5 mining apps you should try on your mobile now!

I've been trying different apps to mine crypto with my phone for weeks, and I swear it's been quite a rollercoaster. Some are a total waste of time, but others... what a surprise! I'll tell you my real experience without filters.

1. CryptoTab - The veteran of the group. I installed it with low expectations and at first it seemed slow, but after activating it I saw how it was accumulating small amounts of BTC. What I love is its referral system - I convinced three friends and my mining rate increased quite a bit. Although of course, my battery now hates me.

2. The big exchanges - They offer cloud mining, but honestly, it seems like a suspicious model to me. You buy hash rate and supposedly receive rewards, but you never really know what equipment they are using or if it is profitable. It smells more like a business for them than for us... although I admit that it is convenient.

3. StormGain - This one has me divided. On one hand, I like its intuitive interface; on the other, what a nightmare to have to restart it every 4 hours! I literally wake up at midnight to do it. Is it worth it? I'm not so sure, but I stick with it out of pure stubbornness.

4. NiceHash - My personal favorite. Their profitability calculator saved me from spending electricity on unprofitable coins. That said, I enabled two-factor authentication right from the start because after what happened with other services, I don't trust even my own shadow.

5. Bitdeer - I tried it for a week and abandoned it. It is powerful and has interesting options, but it is clear that it is designed for people with more technical knowledge. Its pricing plans seemed confusing to me and I ended up feeling scammed.

Is it worth mining on mobile? It depends. If you expect to get rich, forget it. My tech friends laugh at me when I tell them I mine on my phone. But I see this as a way to accumulate small amounts while I learn about the field.

In 2024, I am focusing on Monero and Dogecoin - they are more mobile-friendly. I don't even try Bitcoin directly, it's absurd with a smartphone.

One final piece of advice: don't believe in those apps that promise to mine 1 Bitcoin in record time from your mobile. Physics simply doesn't work that way. If it were that easy, we would all be millionaires with our phones, don't you think?
