'I commute for two hours every day, he spends all day at home enjoying the wind.'
I really can't understand, that guy upstairs doesn't work, doesn't socialize, and says less than five words a day,
Yet every day, there's a notification sound from the bank in the hallway saying 'Deposit successful'.
I initially thought he was into cryptocurrency, but then I thought he didn’t seem like such a savvy person.
Until one day, I saw him hanging a small box on his balcony from downstairs, with a little wind cup spinning on top.
I thought it was a weather sensor, but he casually said:
'Oh, that’s for working for AI.'
??? You hang a plastic box to work for AI and earn more than I do?
🌪️02｜He said: 'AI currently lacks weather data, and my balcony happens to catch the wind.'
I later checked specifically, this thing is not some 'magic mining machine',
But rather a 'real data upload device', I heard it’s called a decentralized data terminal—
To put it simply:
• It will record the temperature, humidity, wind speed, air pressure of your balcony in real-time...
• And then uploads this data to some AI training system.
• Successful uploads can earn rewards (tokens), and 'the more frequently you upload, the more rewards you get'.
This sounds very abstract, but when I looked at his wallet screenshot—
Daily deposit: 0.28, 0.34, 0.47...
In seven days, the total was approximately 300 RMB per day.
It's not windfall wealth falling from the sky, it's the wind blowing, and he’s making money.
💰03｜This is not 'cutting leeks in the crypto circle', but 'the first dividend of real data on the blockchain'.
You don't need to understand technology, just need a balcony.
You don't need to invest money, just hang a box.
The system evaluates whether your uploaded data is stable, scarce, and accurate.
Distributing rewards on the blockchain.
This isn't doing tasks, it's being a 'data mover in the circulation of air'.
No K-line, no risk control, no pump warning.
He doesn't even know how to use an exchange, relying on 'daily wind and rain' to complete deliveries.
🧠04｜What’s even more absurd is: now everyone is starting to 'grab territory' on their balconies.
because AI training requires data from 'different latitudes and wind areas around the world',
So the value of these devices lies not only in 'earnings' but also in 'location'.
East-facing balconies are more common than north-facing, top floors are stronger than bottom floors, and riversides and lakesides are in short supply.
Some people start renting houses specifically to hang devices;
Some people form groups to uniformly hang points on community balconies;
Some people even hang 5 or 10 devices to create a 'balcony mining pool'.
I once doubted whether this was the 'second spring of the real estate market'.
The guy upstairs was stopped by the community security guard a few days ago,
The security guard pointed at his balcony and said: 'Why is your fan spinning without being plugged in?'
He said:
'Is sending wind to AI.'
The security guard laughed, and I laughed too,
But the next day, I also searched on Taobao for: 'Smart wind speed device for balcony'.
You laugh at him for being silly, he's making money.
Would you let your balcony work for AI?
Do you think data can become the source of income in the next era?
