Microsoft crypto mining technology relies on data generated by body activities as proof-of-work

In this post:

Popular computer software development firm, Microsoft, recently registered a patent for a technology that uses human activities to mine cryptocurrencies. The Microsoft crypto mining technology relies on data generated by body activities as proof-of-work using brain waves and body temperature to perform various online tasks.

According to the patent, the software firm mentioned that users are going to be able to solve mining equations without them knowing as submitted to the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).  The document also explains that brain impulses or body reflexes required by people to perfume a task online can be leveraged on to mine cryptos.

However, with the Microsoft crypto mining technology, the firm explained that the method it is proposing could reduce the amount of energy needed when mining and making the process faster.

As explained by the patent, with the Microsoft crypto mining technology, solving difficult computing tasks on the current mining system would not be necessary as data that body activities generate would provide proof of work. It means that users can solve complex mathematics involved in mining cryptos unconsciously without knowing.
