Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing well!


Let's discuss something unusual in the world of crypto mining, diverging from normal mining rigs. I've been very fond of crypto mining from the start but didn't have much idea how it works or what amount of hardware it takes to recover the expense. So, the idea of starting a small mining rig remained just a thought until I tried it on my phone using Termux, an app not available on the Play Store (at least not the updated version) but accessible on F-Droid.

Taking reference from some YouTube videos, I stuck to trying only what was shown, nothing extra, to avoid making a blunder. I installed Termux, added all the codes as per the instructions, and completed the necessary downloads to start the mining process. Then, I simply copy-pasted the provided code to initiate mining.

It took me two days just to understand Termux and set up the folders. When I finally ran it, it worked – but not for long, only about a minute or so. Then, my device crashed. This wasn't a one-time occurrence; I tried about 5-6 times, and each time my device blacked out and hung for an hour. Eventually, I stopped and uninstalled Termux from my smartphone (just a basic phone). 

Trying new things is good; at least you try them, not knowing what will work. As always, I haven't blasted my phone, and it's working the same as before (old, 'dumb' performance), but at least it's in working condition.I really need a new phone but am currently out of funds.
