RE: Xbox One X vs PlayStation 4 Pro
But can it mine bitcoin and ethereum? ;) It might be a silly question but really with this power it certainly could do very well I think. Especially at that cost.

I know you say this in jest, but actually, it might be possible. Xbox One runs a version of the Windows Store, so you could build a UWP mining app for it. I doubt they'll approve it for the store, but maybe there's a way to side load it?
Come to think of it - these could make a superb mining machine! That GPU is going to outperform RX 580 with it's slightly higher shader count and far higher memory bandwidth - the latter being crucial for Ethereum mining from what I understand.
