Google’s new Policies updates ban cryptocurrency mining apps on Play Store
Will this policy of google effect Electroneum?
The Electroneum mining app operates within the new google guidelines. The 3 key factors which google are dealing with are primarily driven by safety, performance and security. For Mining on a cellphone to have a financial benefit the hardware is pushed to its limit often causing the battery to seriously overheat as it dissipates it’s energy much faster than designed to drive the cpu running at almost constant overclocking levels. This is also the reason the phone becomes laggy and the drastic reduction in battery life. The second issue Google are dealing with is the malware aspect which initially was discovered on android handsets earlier this year and is now spreading across fire tv sticks. This is the ADB.Mining which uses the android debugging bridge to access and install on the device.
ETN does not mine on phone it is a mining emulator which communicates with the central server so has none of the issues that google has to urgently stop.
