A brother and sister in San Francisco have quit their summer lemonade stand for a new gig – mining cryptocurrency.
14-year-old Ishaan Thakur and his 9-year-old sister Aanya used to operate a lemonade stand that would earn them about $100 over the course of a summer.
But in March, they began using an old computer to mine cryptocurrency – making over $1,000 in just one month.
