I can see a real business opportunity here,

First, I'll ask my childhood friends to lend me their gameboy. I probably could collect a dozen of them.

Next, set everything up.

Lastly, I'll devise some sort of profit-sharing scheme, say 1/12 per person, that should net some good money.
Passive income go brrrr....

2x10¹⁵ years. The Earth will have been annihilated by the Sun’s death almost two thousand trillion years ago, the universe will be falling into the black hole era, but valiantly chugging away will be this beautiful contraption, sustained by Hawking radiation, bobbing around the cosmos and finally outputting its first Bitcoin. This thought has alleviated my existential dread somewhat.
