21 Announces the Bitcoin Computer

Uploaded on 2015-10-07 in NEWS-Cybersecurity News, FREE TO VIEW, BUSINESS-Services-Financial

After announcing raising US$116 million in multiple rounds in this year, it was clear that 21's offering was to be significant and here is the first product.

Buying and running a bitcoin miner is either a labor of love or an effort at profit… but rarely both. 21.co, for their part, seems to have reached an interesting parity.

Their new Bitcoin Computer is a Raspberry Pi 2 connected to a bitcoin mining rig. It is available for pre-order now on Amazon for $399. They also include a WiFi adapter and a 128GB SD card with a copy of the blockchain preinstalled.
21.co is a secretive bitcoin company founded by Balaji S. Srinivasan. This is their first consumer product.

The system allows you to buy and sell goods and mine bitcoin on a low-power 21 Bitcoin Chip. You can also use the computer to sell “anything to anyone” with Bitcoin using a Micropayments system and you can connect to it via any terminal.
