Raspberry Pi & Bitcoin

What all, related to Bitcoin, can you do with a Raspberry Pi? (Excluding Mining)

I have an extra raspberry pi, that I don't know what to do with.

a Raspberry Pi is actually a kind of mini personal computer(technically). so no it can not mine bitcoins as because normal computers do not have enough power to face the current bitcoin difficulty and a Raspberry Pi of course very outdates and doesn't stand a chance but if you buy a mining rig then I assume you can connect it with your Raspberry Pi and can control it at so low cost.

you can run a node and help support the network. and by running a node you can say your opinion. e.g be supporting UASF.

If you want to support Bitcoin then just run a node in your Raspberry Pi. Preferably a UASF node.

Here is a quick tutorial: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/6d16th/simplified_explanation_for_setting_up_a_uasf_full/

Or if you also have extra storage available and want some cash, check out Storj: https://storj.io

Running a node is a great idea. I'll look into it.
Thanks.

Thanks for the tutorial. I'll check out Storj. I do have around 1 TB available. Not sure if that's gonna be enough or not though.
