San Francisco resident Siraj Raval uses his 2018 Tesla Model 3 to mine Ethereum cryptocurrency.
According to him, he launched free mining software on an Apple Mac mini M1 computer by connecting it to the car's center console. Five graphics cards are powered by a Tesla battery. He estimates that he mines on a Tesla battery for about 20 hours a day.
But experts are doubting that he could make $800 on ETH mining via Tesla. Still I am wondering if this is not harmful for the batteries.
