[Blockchain Today Correspondent Han Ji-hye] Canadian light car maker Daymak has announced an electric vehicle that can mine bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies while the car is parked.
According to a Cointelegraph report, Daymak announced in a statement on the 1st (local time) that it would launch an electric vehicle capable of mining Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin.

However, despite the technological achievements, mining cryptocurrencies in the form of small consumer equipment likely to be mounted on automobiles can be uneconomical. This means that profitability will not be high.

Meanwhile, this isn’t the first time the vehicle has been equipped with cryptocurrency mining hardware. In January, cryptocurrency enthusiast Simon Bryne installed a portable mining rig in a BMW i8 hybrid vehicle. At the time, it was estimated that Brine’s car could generate annual revenues of $122,000.
