MODERATORS
You could actually run an actual legit miner on the thing, but yeah, you're not getting ahead your electricity usage.
You're assuming it isn't plugged in to someone else's power though.
In that case I'm sure they're enjoying their 60 cents per month
Look at this fatcat too good for 60 cents
The seller didn't said they pay for their electricity. If they live in a dorm, or charge the phones in their workplace or school, there are lot of illegal ways to get free electricity. It's easier to conceal a regular phone than an antminer
Or in this case, likely using mom's electricity without her knowing
Btw I'm not buying the phones cause I know their batteries are fucked
