Is there a way to tap/probe a tree, perhaps through electrolysis, to pull enough electricity to run a mining rig and generate at least one block of coins? If this could be document at least once, without using no other electrical source, the resulting video may have a chance of going viral. Everyone and their mother would click a link to see a real live money tree.
Picture the headline(s): Money Now Truly Grows on Trees--No, Really!
As if you needed a further incentive:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_tree_(myth)
It was thought the coins emitted light, the coins guided the deceased, who would ride on a winged ram up the ceramic mountain to the bronze tree of paradise. These coins could also be plucked for needs on the journey from earth to the realm of immortals.
Read the Wiki, for it seems the Chinese may still practice this myth.
I'm wondering that if this could be accomplished, can the resulting block(s)/coin(s) be sold at a premium considering their source.
Let's start the discussion to see if it's possible first, before leaping to the next step--building the money tree.
