Smartphone Farming Coin and Debit Card

There are now coins that generate value from smartphone farming. Smartphone Farming which is fairly new bares a resemblance to cryptocurrency mining. They function similarly to mining rigs. The advantages they have are they consume alot less power.

The typical smartphone device consumes about 5 watts of power per phone. Companies and businesses have began to collect and use these devices to generate advertising revenue as well as mine cryptocurrencies. Some of the companies such as Perk have also released debit cards which instantly transfer any earnings on to a major credit card processor. This is very convenient for smarphone farms.

Smartphone Farming Coin and Debit Card. thats a good idea. I think it will take much time to mining compare to computers.

Yes it also used advertising share programs to pay for ads run on your smartphones. They then option you to be paid in cash or cryptocurrency often time. So not alot of processing power is required depending on what methods you use.

Then It would be great for the users cause they don't have to think before buy an app. Especially for the mobile game lovers.

But there is also possibility of security risks, isn't it ? If we have some sensitive data in the smart phone like banking apps, then it may be vulnerable ?

I looked into that. This is from one of the most used applications in relation to that question:

We can assure you that the Perk TV app is not malware or spyware. Perk TV uses a third party code encrypting tool that helps to avoid code theft. Due to this, some antivirus software considers Perk TV as malware, but Perk TV is not malware or spyware.

Perk TV is completely safe to install and use. We have thousands of happy and satisfied members using Perk TV and enjoying their rewards.

Other major big companies like Earn Honey and Yoolotto say a similar thing. In the smartphone farming community generally we have several devices segregated for this. They only run these specific applications.

However i have used personal devices and haven't had any issue to date over years. Also keep in mind each company is different and we run these applications on a variety of them. So always good to do some due diligience and investigation. As well as keep up with the community to see if there are any issues.
