SYSTEM FOR PERFORMING BLOCKCHAIN PROCESSING WITHIN A VEHICLE

A system to use vehicle regenerative braking to power blockchain processing may include a controller that includes one or more processors, memory and instructions or programs stored in the memory or otherwise accessible by the processors that is capable of communicating with a network configured to transmit and receive blockchain data. A blockchain processor may be either integrated with the controller or separate from the controller and is capable of communicating with the controller. The system determines a vehicle energy condition, determines whether the vehicle energy condition is above a predetermined threshold and powers one or more blockchain processors to perform blockchain processing when the vehicle energy condition meets or exceeds the predetermined threshold.
