Bitcoin Forum

came across this new project today and would like to share it with you here on the forum
this is the Cubit - on their website this box is titled as the 'your personal controlnode'
the whole thing includes a lightning and Bitcoin node, a decentralized web node as well as an ion node. additionally a password manager is integrated on the cubit
more infos about the project and the hardware can be found on the official website👉https://nabi.technology/ (https://nabi.technology/)


i would be very happy if someday someone will come forward here and share their experiences about this new project with us

I am not sure if it is a production-ready project, looks interesting (and really nice) but I guess for most of geeks it would be too expensive comparing to own-build node on Pi or even on Intel NUC.
But you are right, I like the design and the fact that all should work out-of-box, so I will follow the project. Price? Availability?

It's not just a Bitcoin node. It's a whole digital solution for all your data, messaging apps, and connections. It supposedly works as a smart home assistant as well judging by the website. The site says the device comes with 2 SSD drives but doesn't mention the sizes. There is also a battery that helps power the box in case of power outages. It would be interesting to know how much juice the battery can provide. 

They have a GitHub repository (https://github.com/enricopro/nabi), so I guess everything is based on open-source technology, but they don't mention that anywhere on their website. They claim to have been connected to the Cypherpunk movement, and describe themselves as privacy advocates.

I don't get why they don't just use much cheaper ARM chipsets, that can deliver the same power as an x86 processor from 5 years ago. If they're being used everywhere in Android phones, it shouldn't be too hard to obtain a batch from some manufacturer.
