Samsung makes mining rig out of old smartphones
 

"Upcycling" initiative

To show off how recycling old smartphones can be a lucrative exercise, Samsung has rigged up 40 old Galaxy S5 devices and turned them into bit coin mining machine.

The whole idea was part of Samsung’s new "Upcycling" initiative that is designed to turn old smartphones and turn them into something brand new.

Samsung premiered this rig, and a bunch of other cool uses for old phones, at its recent developer's conference in San Francisco.
