Easiest Cloud Mining App

Simple, Easy, User Friendly

💯

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

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.

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!!!

Love it!

Cool app, cool team, cool sats. Fun way to get into and learn about mining.

₿ 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. 😂₿

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.

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

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.

Can’t make purchase

The app won’t allow us to make purchases for mining even with update. The diamond purchases works fine but can’t start mining.

Awesome

I've tried 10 apps on iPhone to mine btc and this is by far the easiest, cleanest and straight forward

Response from developer

field randall, thank you for sharing your experience. It's great to hear that you find the app easy to use and straightforward. Your feedback is valuable to us as we continue to improve.
