Electroneum (ETN) is a cryptocurrency that can be mined with a smartphone, requiring virtually no technical knowledge or previous experience. This distinguishes it from other cryptocurrencies (such as Bitcoin) that require expensive hardware and technical knowledge to mine.

Unique Electroneum cellular mining experience allows anyone with a smartphone to earn ETN coins by letting the miner app run in the background.

It's specially designed with mobile users in mind, thus attracting a potential market of 2.2 billion smartphone users worldwide. Unlike other cryptocurrencies, Electroneum has a user-friendly and beginner-oriented interface that allows users to transfer ETN coins between each other smoothly, check their balances, and mine coins.![Apa-itu-Electroneum-Mengapa-Electroneum-Peminatnya-Cukup-Besar..png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmd4M4QjFP872RYnHLqFoWYzs2cwADQcFv29zZ1RVKFjz6/Apa-itu-Electroneum-Mengapa-Electroneum-Peminatnya-Cukup-Besar..png)

Being a cryptocurrency, Electroneum is made, held, and spent electronically, and has no physical coins. And because it is guarded by blockchain, it is not controlled or regulated by anyone, company, or government.

Instead, transactions are processed and validated by a network of thousands of computers worldwide (called miners) who all must agree on each user's account balance (more about mining below). The mathematical functions take care of every aspect of the process and ensure that no one can play the system or commit fraud.

Blockchain Electroneum was officially launched on November 1, 2017 and the application wallet was launched on December 13, 2017. Mobile miners launched on March 5, 2018.
