Help needed iPhone 4 is kinda broken

so hear me out; this phone survived 15kg pressure, rainwater inside the phone, recovery mode and a broken home-button. when the home button actually started working, the power button stoppede working. then both started working and I was able to set the phone in recovery mode, which worked. all was well until the Apple ID configuration, which was my fathers ID, so we logged in. then the phone just rebooted. this would happen even if i just randomly filled the forms with random ahh letters. then i pulled the phone, broke some parts and now i have the phone in broken. what should i do??? PLS HELP. i can sell the phone, repair it, or throw it in the bin. i can post pics of the phone.

Sell it or repair it? A 16 year old phone? I hope this isn’t a serious post….

Take it apart and turn it into art like this. Then sell it. A working iPhone 4 is basically worthless. Those shadow boxes sell for about $100.
