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?

Hear me out:

ASIC set up that can produce enough heat to generate steam.

Steam flows to a turbine, turbine powers generator, generator powers ASICs.

I know this isn’t possible with current tech but imagine a fully self sustaining mining rig. 0 cost mining.
