Do a Nostr phone with an internal low-power ASIC mining chip so that everyone can participate in the Bitcoin lottery while also helping to decentralize the network. One validator for everyone. Baked-in, on by default.

Pocket heaters for everyone π
Sir, our batteries are already trash and can barely keep up with the current hardware demand and user usage habits.
Only activate it when the phone is plugged in
But realistically, is the cost worth the reward?
Whats the price you would pay to decentralize the mining network?
The measure is unquantifiable.
How would you price decentralization?
Best I could think of, estimate how money has been already invested in the mining equipment so far.
Thats how much you need to pay to decentralize it. π€·π»ββοΈ
I just think it would be fun to run a miner on my phone, I wouldn't even care if it's profitable.
Okay, I'm on-board with that. Mining while I sleep. π€βοΈ
Id buy that!
That be fun. But a node is a must.
You get a node and you get a node.
Small nuclear powerreactor for your pocket, keeps your balls warm aswell
I had a Monero node running on my driver for a few months. Not super useful since no wallets could properly use localhost...
I also ran 2 mobiles with a miner to see how it would go.
It ended as expected.

I'd settle for a baked in partial node on a phone.
