1. A vehicle cryptocurrency mining system comprising:
a generator configured to generate power by driving an engine;
a battery configured to the power generated by the generator;
an inverter connected to the generator or the battery and configured to convert DC power into AC power;
a mining device configured to mine cryptocurrency using power converted and output by the inverter; and
a control device configured to monitor a mining state of the mining device; and
a central server configured to receive the cryptocurrency mined by the mining device and to store the cryptocurrency in an electronic wallet of a vehicle driver,
wherein the central server provides a portion of the cryptocurrency mined by the vehicle driver, cash converted from the mined cryptocurrency, or fee generated when the mined cryptocurrency is converted into another currency, to the vehicle driver, and provides a remaining portion to an operator of the central server, and
when a mining operation stops due to an error in the mining device even if the vehicle is driving, the central server that controls the mining device counts a stop time and performs compensation for the stop time to the vehicle driver, wherein the compensation is an expected cryptocurrency profit to be acquired by driving the vehicle by the vehicle driver multiplied by a compensation rate of less than 1.
