Brainstorm session:
Coming up with funky ways to use ASICs outside of solely mining purposes would be very beneficial for further decentralizing mining. Jack mentioned on Money Matters they’re looking into space heaters that would essentially be space heaters that pay for themselves. Another idea I’ve thought of for a while and have seen others mention is gym equipment that powers miners, you get a gym membership that pays for itself and possibly profits. I’ve seen other people use to heat greenhouses, hot water heaters, and even heat their entire home.
I’m curious to know what other weird, out of the box purposes people have seen work or ideas people have thought of. Incubators? Clothes dryers? Saunas? Cooking/heating food?
It generates heat, if you can recover the heat then it is an extra purpose. Doesn’t matter how you use the heat.

I know, I’m looking for clever ways people repurpose the heat that I haven’t seen before
OK I will start with two: desiccant dehumidifier, absorption chiller.
