zdnet Tesla’s next business: Turning your solar roof and EV into Bitcoin mines

Quote

Powerwalls can store that surplus energy and power various things in your home, including air conditioners, and charge your Tesla EV.

 

 

But suppose Tesla added a capability to its on-premises solar energy/battery energy management computer built into its inverter system or the Powerwall that would give it GPUs for mining cryptocurrencies? These are already connected to home Wi-Fi. They have a management app, so upgrading it with Wi-Fi 6 and attaching it to a cryptocurrency network and an easy-to-use mobile app for cryptocurrency account management would be an achievable systems integration effort for Tesla, given the company's considerable engineering resources.

Makes perfect sense. If you have spare power might as well try and use it for something if you can.

Only makes sense since Tesla already invested 1.5B directly.
