Human Body Used For Cryptocurrency Mining Featured
Microsoft’s Strange ‘Body Activity Data’ Cryptocurrency Patent
By cloverchronicle on April 17, 2020

Last June, Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLC filed an international patent for an odd design that uses humans to mine cryptocurrency via their physical activities, as opposed to using a computer-related mining device....

The design includes a brief abstract (description) which explains how it will function:

Human body activity associated with a task provided to a user may be used in a mining process of a cryptocurrency system. A server may provide a task to a device of a user which is communicatively coupled to the server. A sensor communicatively coupled to or comprised in the device of the user may sense body activity of the user. Body activity data may be generated based on the sensed body activity of the user. The cryptocurrency system communicatively coupled to the device of the user may verify if the body activity data satisfies one or more conditions set by the cryptocurrency system, and award cryptocurrency to the user whose body activity data is verified.

The ‘publication date’ of the patent shows up as March 26, 2020 and, perhaps more interestingly, the ‘publication number’ is WO/2020/060606:
