Samsung has created a new program called Galaxy Upcycling that will provide ideas and resources for how to reuse an old phone. Some early examples include a permanent display for a connected fish tank, a miniature tablet-powered arcade cabinet, and–if you somehow have a few dozen phones to spare–a bitcoin mining station. A website where users can share instructions is expected to go live soon.
