Thank you, Josue! We’re glad you’re enjoying Bitcoinist and appreciate you recommending us. Great to hear your payouts to your own wallet have gone smoothly. Thanks for being part of our community! 🧡

HAI to this one!

This one did indeed send 7,000 sats to my address within just a few days (after having gifted me 50 terahashes of miners during that time). Definitely a positive review from me!

Response from developer

Thank you for the five stars! We’re glad your 7,000-sat payout reached your wallet. We appreciate you sharing your experience with Bitcoinist.

No profits app

It will cost you money and don’t really pay out same amount you are investing . If you sign for one month att 99 gbp you get back 10 % of investment. Are people so stupid to be fooled by developers?

Response from developer

We understand your concern about costs. Bitcoinist hosts physical miners and rents their hashrate, with equipment, electricity, hosting and maintenance included. Our research found our all-inclusive price per TH/s to be the lowest among the apps we compared. You choose how to use that hashrate: mine solo in your own pool, invite friends to join and compete with other pools, or connect to OCEAN. Rewards depend on hashrate, network difficulty, block subsidies, transaction fees and your pool’s results, fees and payout rules. Higher difficulty reduces expected BTC rewards per TH/s. Bitcoinist doesn’t set these mining rewards. We also offer free mining options, including watching educational videos about Bitcoin and mining.

The best app for sat stackers!

Flawless payouts every time! You can tell how much thought went into designing this app. Super grateful for the smooth experience. 5 stars well deserved.

Response from developer

Thank you for the five stars! We’re glad payouts have been smooth and that you appreciate the care behind the app’s design. Your support means a lot to our team.

Love it

Great and really informative

Response from developer

Thanks for the five stars! We’re glad you’re enjoying the app and finding it informative. We appreciate your support.

Update Change

The update killed it. No more ads that give you enough credit to keep running!

Response from developer

Thank you for the honest feedback, we hear you. Ad revenue doesn't cover the costs, and we pay the difference out of pocket to keep our users running. We're fine-tuning continuously and have already released a new update: earning diamonds is now a lot easier, and you can see exactly how it works. We're also integrating alternative ad partners that will enable higher rewards, and many more ways to earn diamonds are on the way, so you'll have more options to keep going. Please update the app and give it another try.

So far I love it

I love this app it’s easy to use and you can earn real bitcoins. Plus they give you a tutorial study of what’s btc and how it’s works and get a degree afterwards. I definitely will recommend this app to everyone!!!

Solid App

Stick with it for 18 months at least.

Response from developer

Thank you for the five stars! We’re glad you’re enjoying Bitcoinist and appreciate you recommending it to others.

The only thing that can make this app better is lightning withdrawals, anything else is cherries.

Response from developer

Thank you for the five stars! We’re glad you’re enjoying Bitcoinist and appreciate your suggestion to add Lightning withdrawals.

Awesome, awesome, awesome!

Honestly, I have to say that I’m still learning how to use this app. I love this app, it has a lot of value within it. I will admit I have learned a great deal from those videos in the app than I have in the 6 years I have been researching information over the internet, about bitcoin. However, I still don’t have a full understanding of how the process of the payout works. Please can help me with this, I will be very grateful. Thank you.

Hashrate Hermit is Hooked !

₿ HASHRATE HERMIT APP REVIEW — BITCOINIST

I’ve been spending some time with the Bitcoinist app, and I have to say—I like what they’re building here.
The first thing that grabbed me is the presentation. It has a futuristic, almost game-like approach to Bitcoin mining, rather than feeling like another boring dashboard. It makes you want to explore and figure out what everything does.
One feature I particularly like is the Bitcoin Academy. Bitcoinist currently has a 31-lesson curriculum designed to teach Bitcoin and mining concepts, and the app can reward educational activity with Diamonds, its in-app currency. Bitcoinist’s terms confirm promotional Diamonds can be earned through things such as educational videos, missions, promotions and other qualifying activities.
That’s a cool concept:

LEARN → EARN DIAMONDS → EXPLORE MINING. 💎⛏️

One important clarification: your iPhone itself isn’t doing the Bitcoin hashing. According to Bitcoinist’s App Store listing, the phone acts as the interface while mining is performed by remotely hosted ASIC hardware. Diamonds can then be used within the app to activate mining time.
I actually think that distinction makes the concept more interesting, because they’re trying to combine Bitcoin education, hosted mining and gamification into one approachable experience.

Is everything perfect yet? No.

This still feels like a platform that’s early in its development. The current App Store history shows major changes are still arriving—the app reached version 2.0 in July—and user reviews show both positive experiences and complaints about limitations or features that still need refinement.
But sometimes you can use something early and immediately see where the developers are trying to take it.

Bitcoinist has that effect on me.
The interface pulls you in. The Academy gives beginners something productive to do instead of just pressing buttons they don’t understand. The Diamond system adds a little game-like incentive to learning. And underneath all of that is actual hosted mining rather than pretending your phone itself is somehow hashing Bitcoin.
Would I call it finished? Not yet.
Would I promise anybody they’re going to make money using it? Absolutely not. Mining outcomes, costs and economics should always be understood before spending money.
But would I say it’s cool, different, and worth giving a try to see what you think?

Definitely. 💎₿

There’s something here.

If Bitcoinist continues developing the educational side, improves the experience and stays transparent about how the mining side works, I think it’ll be interesting to watch where this platform goes.

EARLY? YES.
INTERESTING? ABSOLUTELY.
HAS IT PULLED THE HERMIT IN? YOU BET. 😂₿

Thank you for the detailed review! We’re glad the Academy and hosted mining approach stood out. We appreciate your feedback on what still needs refinement and agree that understanding mining costs and rewards is essential.

took me a minute to get it

downloaded this out of curiosity and it took me a minute to understand what was going on lol. the phone isnt mining, its more like a control panel for hashrate running somewhere else. once that clicked the app made way more sense.

not gonna pretend i found a block or made any money. i just like the private pool idea and the academy videos were better than i expected. no random token being pushed every 2 seconds either.

still early and you can tell, but the direction is good. hope they keep it bitcoin only.

Response from developer

Thank you for sharing your experience! You’re right: the app manages hashrate from hosted physical miners. We’re glad you enjoyed the private pools and Academy videos, and we appreciate your feedback about making the first steps clearer.

Cant link my wallet

Useless Claude I cant link your wallet to payout -.- -5stars

Response from developer

Hi! Payout addresses must be Native SegWit (bc1q) or Taproot (bc1p). If your wallet shows an address starting with 1 or 3, switch it to a SegWit/Taproot receive address (most wallets support this in settings) and it will link fine. Need help? Reach us in the app under Support.

So far so good

App design is clean and looks pretty cool tbh, simple to use and offers video tutorials on how bitcoin works and what it is, they are A.I but who cares really, the videos are actually super helpful and explains stuff in easy to understand ways. Haven’t withdrawn anything yet but i will update when i can. I will recommend a page dedicated for buying diamonds and miners instead of having to click around to find em

Response from developer

Thank you for the five stars! We’re glad the app feels easy to use and the tutorials are helpful. We appreciate your suggestion for a dedicated page to buy diamonds and miners.

Not as advertised

Despite having a free option your limited to what you can actually can do as a free user… meaning you do all the video lessons for diamonds and while mining diamonds as well after all is done you will need to invest far as I see. I see no other ways to get diamonds for free

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback. Rewarded ads will provide another way to earn free diamonds in our next update, which is currently awaiting Apple’s approval. No purchase will be required.

Keinerlei lukrativität

Alle Miner sind nur auf Abo basis. Die bezahl abo‘s sind extrem teuer und bringen selbst bei einem angenommenen BTC preis von 100.000 € nur 10% des bezahlten Preises während der Laufzeit ein.

Response from developer

Danke für dein Feedback. Nutzer können auch ohne Abo über einen privaten Pool minen, selbst mit nur einem Miner. Erzeugt ihre Mining-Leistung einen gültigen Block, erhalten sie die vollständige Netzwerkbelohnung von 3,125 BTC. Die Ergebnisse hängen von der Hashrate und den Netzwerkbedingungen ab. Belohnungsanzeigen für kostenlose Diamanten kommen außerdem mit dem nächsten, aktuell von Apple geprüften Update.
