Recently, some overseas bloggers have broken the news that the use of Tesla Model 3 mining has aroused the attention and hot discussion of netizens.
According to him, the amateur miner, Siraj Raval, bought an Apple Mac Mini box computer and installed free bitcoin mining software.
The power needed for mining is then obtained from the 12-volt on-board power supply of the Tesla electric car through an inverter. At the same time, he also bought a graphics card, placed it in the Tesla front trunk, and used the vehicle's battery pack to "mine".
While these practices will cost the car its warranty, Laver says it's worth it. Laver said that the price of Ethereum rose sharply last year, and mining on electric vehicles every month can earn an additional $800 (about 5100 yuan).
However, some netizens questioned the authenticity of Laver's claim, and "miner" Thomas Summers said that the figures claimed by Laval were not true at all.
Summers said tesla Model 3's GPU transmission speeds can be as high as 7-10 Mh/s. According to Etherscan, Ethereum's current price of about $3149 can bring miners at most $13 a month at this rate, not including costs.
Even at the all-time high of $4812 that Ethereum once reached, Laval earns only $20 a month.
However, Laver does not seem to use the GPU that comes with the Tesla car, but bought his own graphics card and only used the power of the Tesla electric car to mine. We remain interested in the follow-up developments on this matter.
