How to Mine Verus on Your Cell Phone

 If you've got an extra phone lying around, why not put it to work? Generating passive income through cryptocurrency and stocks has reshaped my retirement mindset, with steady goal-setting along the way. From covering weekly expenses like dining out or fuel costs, achieving these mini-goals paves the way to eventually replace your day job income, keeping motivation high.

Purchasing a Phone: Investing in extra hardware solely for phone mining isn't advisable, but it's an intriguing concept. Consider a budget-friendly option like the Samsung Galaxy A03s, priced at just $49.88 on Amazon. Below, I've listed compatible processors for mining Verus coin.

Setting Up the Miner on Your Phone: For a previously used phone, uninstall unnecessary apps and disable data tracking to free up CPU resources for mining.

Enabling Developer Mode: Access Developer Options by tapping the Build Number option seven times, then navigating to Settings -> System -> Developer Options.

Activating Stay Awake: In Developer Options, enable Stay Awake to keep your phone screen on while charging. Optimize efficiency by turning off adaptive brightness, lowering brightness, resolution, and refresh rate.

Installing Mining Software: Download the mining software from the official Verus coin website's Mobile section. Follow the installation steps provided.

Configuring Miner Settings: After installation, customize settings such as CPU cores, miner name, and Verus coin wallet address. Adjust additional settings like temperature threshold and charge control as needed.

Setting Up a Verus Wallet: For a secure Verus wallet, consider the one developed by the Verus team. Download it from the official website or Google Play Store, create a locally stored wallet, and save your 24-word seed phrase securely.

Launching the Miner: Ensure your profile settings are correct with the designated wallet address, then start mining within the app's mining tab.

Profitability Analysis: I installed the Verus miner on my Samsung Galaxy S22+ phone, achieving 5.55 Mh/s and an estimated yield of 0.04859391 VRSC or $0.0562 daily. Note that these figures don't factor in electricity costs as i am running my devices on solar power.
