Canadian light electric vehicle (LEV) specialist Daymak has just announced its plans to create the world’s first car that can mine cryptocurrency.

The car itself will be the automaker’s upcoming Spiritus model, which will now be equipped with a patent-pending Daymak Nebula infrastructure consisting of both a Nebula Miner and Nebula Wallet. The former will turn the LEV into a blockchain node and allow it to mine cryptocurrencies from Dogecoin and Bitcoin to Ethereum and Cardano while the car is parked, while the latter will then collect, store, and help you transact those cryptocurrencies afterward.

“The Spiritus car is for those who want more in life, and we are committed to putting our customers ahead of the curve,” said Daymak president Aldo Baiocchi in a statement.”We envision a future where your highway tolls, your parking, and your drive-thru order will be paid directly on the fly with crypto. Your online bills and your banking can be handled through the same software platform paid in crypto. And whereas most vehicles are depreciating while they sit in your garage, the Nebula Miner will make you money while your Spiritus is parked. The potential applications are limitless.”

For those interested, Daymak is aiming to launch the Spiritus sometime in 2023. You can learn more over on the company’s website.
