In the Netherlands, it is possible to use cryptocurrency with the help of human heat
Scientists from the Dutch Institute of Human Aging have decided that the human body can become a source of cryptocurrency,
“A single human body at rest radiates 100 watts of excess heat — We created a body-suit that uses thermoelectric generators to harvest the temperature differential between the human body and ambient and converts it into usable electricity,” reveals IoHO.
The electricity generated is then fed to a computer that produces cryptocurrency. To collect heat, scientists have developed a special case-suit, which stores the heat released into electricity. For this, thermoelectric generators are used, taking into account the temperature difference between the environment and the heat released by the human body. The received electric power goes to the computer, engaged in mining.
IoHO thinks there is a great future ahead for data production labor and is heavily exploring the potential of the human body to produce capital. When mining the cryptocurrencies, ‘workers’ only have to lay down and “do nothing.” The bodysuit does all the ‘work’ and maintains their body temperature to produce human-generated data that’s rewarded in digital currencies.
“Human-generated data is a resource already extracted by companies like Google and Facebook, producing vast amounts of capital.”
Why aren’t we, the data workers, capitalizing on it? If even jobless workers are generating capital by producing data, are we truly unemployed?
Beltrán reveals the team didn’t mine bitcoin due to the extreme difficulty to produce them with human body heat. Essentially, it would take over 4,500 individuals doing absolutely nothing but wear IoHO’s special suit all day and night to mine one single bitcoin. IoHO chose to use easier to mine coins which produced significantly better funding results.]
“We pursue shifting this paradigm of unpaid work and to start obtaining profit from it,” IoHO’s vision explains.
During the functioning of the project, scientists managed to extract over 16.5 thousand units of various crypto-currencies, among them: vertkoin, dash, eterum, starcoin, liska and lightcoin.
