List of post:

It appears that your wallet address has been compromised. If your Pi is transferable, it is at risk of being stolen.
Based on this experience, your wallet has likely been hacked, and your coins are vulnerable to scams.

The  solution is to :
Go to your pi browser and click on the wallet
Generate a new wallet address.
 Securely store your key phrases (write them down or save them in a secure location).

 You can also enable fingerprint authentication for added security
Lastly, do away with your first wallet and start to make use of new wallet generated keys.


1. For additional context, this is reply to someone who asked about Bitcoin private key where the thread is on Bitcoin parent board. So suggesting to use Pi browser (which is product of altcoin called Pi/Pi Network) is totally unhelpful.
2. Pi/Pi Network itself have many red flags. Some of them stated on PI Network! A huge trap[Warning!].

Someone asked me if someone can mine Bitcoin as other cryptocurrencies. I initially said no, but the person seems to be curious; he further askedif it used to be like other cryptocurrencies. I told him I was not sure about it. I have to find out as a learner.

I did little research about it.

According to the research, one could mine Bitcoin easily before, but it used to be by desktop or laptop, not with an Android phone, as people used to mine other cryptocurrencies like Pi.

But now it is very complex.

Bitcoin mining requires high energy and the use of special hardware known as ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits), and Bitcoin uses a very strong algorithm (SHA 256) that needs high powered computers to solve complex puzzles and very difficult mathematical problems. According to my findings.

Even powerful laptops and phones cannot mine Bitcoin effectively anymore, talk less of phones.

It has turned into an industrial level operation thing. Although,

There were suggestions that if one wants to earn bitcoin, there are various sites where one can register and begin to earn coins through watching ads, completing surveys, clicking links, etc.

Cointiply – https://cointiply dot com

Timebucks – https://timebucks dot com

BTCClicks – https://btcclicks dot com

I know most of us are not sure if we were asked this kind of question. I wish to acknowledge to us that Bitcoin mining is complex compared to other cryptocurrencies but cannot be done with a phone like other cryptocurrencies but can be earned by playing games, clicking on links, or through Bitcoin faucet sites.

1. active-miner dot com is a cloud mining, where cloud mining is generally scam. I visited few page of their website, but i didn't find proof that they actually own ASIC and mining facility.
2. Pi/Pi network doesn't actually perform mining (as in Proof of Work or performing computation).
