BFM Company Limited announced Bitcoinist.App on July 23, 2026, in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, presenting it as a non-custodial Bitcoin mining app and Learn-to-Mine platform available exclusively on iOS. The app is live on the Apple App Store and is aimed at giving users a simpler way to understand how Bitcoin mining works, access real hashpower, create private Bitcoin mining pools, and receive payouts directly to a wallet they control.
The onboarding process uses Sign in with Apple. According to the release, people can begin from an iPhone without buying mining hardware and without entering payment information.
App targets barriers that keep most people from mining at home
The company frames the product around the idea that most people will never operate a miner at home. It points to several obstacles. In some regions, especially in parts of the developing world, high room temperatures can cause mining machines to overheat. Running air conditioning around the clock adds electricity costs that can make home mining too expensive. Noise and the miner’s continuous power consumption add to the challenge.
The release also says many people around the world rely mainly on mobile data through a phone and do not have a practical wired internet connection for dedicated mining equipment. A physical miner also needs a stable network connection. Bitcoinist.App says it lowers those barriers through a simple iOS interface that lets users learn about Bitcoin and direct real remotely hosted hashpower.
Three ways to use Bitcoinist.App
The app’s structure is organized around three modes covering education, access to hashpower, and routing that hashpower.
Learn and unlock
Bitcoinist.App includes a built-in Bitcoin Academy with a 31-lesson video curriculum. The company says the lessons explain Bitcoin and mining in practical terms. Educational videos and optional rewarded ads can unlock free mining rental time, allowing users to start mining on day one without making a purchase.
Rent or connect
Paid access is available through an in-app subscription. Users can access hashpower in 1 TH/s increments from miners hosted in UAE data centers, from third-party facilities, or from capacity supplied through third-party hashpower marketplaces. The release states clearly that mining does not run on the iPhone. The app acts as a control layer for real hashpower, and pricing is published inside the app.
The company also says support is planned for connecting user-owned hardware, including home miners such as Bitaxe.
Route and pool
Users can create a private mining pool, invite friends and family to combine hashpower, and compete with the global Bitcoin hashrate. They can also mine solo or route miners to the Ocean pool for steadier payouts.
Non-custodial design is central to the product
Bitcoinist.App describes itself as strictly non-custodial. The release says there is no internal wallet and no platform balance. Users select an external self-custody wallet for payouts, and mined bitcoin is sent directly to that address instead of being held inside the app.
The company says it does not hold users’ private keys or mined funds. It also describes the app as mining infrastructure and education, not a yield product, not an investment scheme, and not a custodial wallet.
The release adds that an in-app subscription or ad-supported access provides mining time, not bitcoin and not a promised return. Mining results depend on network difficulty, pool performance, transaction fees, and deployed hashpower. Some hosting and hashpower capacity comes from third parties, so availability and performance may vary depending on the provider. The company says nothing in the release guarantees any amount of mined bitcoin.
Founder and CEO comments
Fouad Jamil, Founder and CEO of Bitcoinist.App, said: “We designed Bitcoinist.App to orange pill the masses through mining and education. People can begin with a phone, learn what Bitcoin mining actually does, direct real hashpower, and receive every sat in a wallet they control. We are not mining for users and we never custody their bitcoin. We provide the infrastructure and tools; users decide where their hashpower goes.”
That statement lays out the company’s position directly: the app is meant to start with education and mining access from a phone, while control over payouts remains with the user. The company says it provides the infrastructure and tools, while users choose where their hashpower is directed.
Operating entity, licensing, and capacity sources
Bitcoinist.App is operated by BFM Company Limited, which is registered in RAK DAO in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE. The release lists Bitcoin Mining license No. 07010714. Mining infrastructure is described as being located in UAE data centers and in third-party mining facilities around the world. Additional capacity may also come through third-party hashpower marketplaces.
The company notes that availability is subject to regional eligibility.
Public release is currently iOS-only
The app is now publicly available and is offered exclusively on iOS, according to the announcement. Users can download it from the Apple App Store.
