I'm curious if this CPU power from Evernode could potentially be harnessed for Bitcoin mining. Is it a viable option?
Imho it's not. CPU mining, even with strong CPUs, will not provide a meaningful hash rate. For Bitcoin you need ASICs.
However, with some luck you might find altcoins that can still be mined on CPU.
Just keep in mind that most probably you'll be breaking some rules/ToS/whatever if you do this.
