Simplicity Esports and Gaming Company (OTCQB:WINR) announced that it will work with the Esports Entertainment Group subsidiary ggCircuit to start using its gaming PCs to passively mine cryptocurrencies, such as Ethereum.

According to its CEO Roman Franklin, each PC is expected to generate $100 to $125 of Ethereum per month.

Roman Franklin said: "We continue to find innovative ways to leverage the largest footprint of esports gaming centers in the U.S. for increasing revenue. We plan to have the first PCs mining Ethereum as soon as next week, and plan to roll out this strategy at all new locations that we acquire or build, as long as it remains economically viable. The beauty of the ggCircuit program is that initiating and halting mining activity can be done with the push of a button."
