Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

You guys realize this is a joke right? Bitfury is obviously taking a stab at 21 inc and their absurd "miner in everything connected to a wall outlet" plan.

I realize this, but it does not stop me from wanting one.   And for all we know it could just have their logo on it for fun, they could be laughing that anyone thought possibly real.

Unfortunately, it's not a joke.
Well, it is, but it's not about 21

Can you folks elaborate on this? I understand the general "Internet of Things" mining premise, and don't think it really has legs. Nevertheless, I am curious.

What do you actually know?

I would love to hear some stat's as well.  They looked like they used oversized led bulbs (almost look like some of the changing color light bulbs).   I'm wondering if they put a raspberry pi in it with wifi then some kinda usb stick miner within it.  And with LED it should not produce much heat on light.

I know Samsung is working with Ethereum allegedly to make this decentralised internet of things network work. All the electrical appliances of the future will be communicating with each other and using blockchain decentralised consensus...think Terminator/Skynet meets your toaster...

Why would that be a joke? Every company in my opinion will start to do things like that.

No what??  Tongue You will not do this? I guess you focus on big company.
That ok and I respect that but I will also be happy to get some home miner or IOT miner.  Grin

I can't disclose information given to me privately.
However, BitFury did discuss their CE mining plans back in January publicly.

Thanks Guy!  Grin
You're welcome. I wouldn't seriously wait for "IOT miners". It's a vaporware story, good only for attracting investors.

This is generally what I though about the 21 Inc announcements. They seemed best suited as a presentation for Venture Capital firms, and not geared at all towards potential customers.

I can understand why a "newcomer" to the Bitcoin mining space would want to attract investors, but I didn't seem that a firm already established (e.g. BitFury, Bitmain, yourself) in the Bitcoin mining space would care. That's part of why I am interested.

Thanks for sharing what you can.

21 Inc (previously 21e6) are not newcomers. We were incorporated more or less in the same time.

OK, so then why aren't you guys going down the same path? Are the Venture Capital guys in Israel smarter than the VC guys in California?   Smiley

Yes, it's a flippant question and I ask only because in the 21 Inc "thread" the pedigree of the investors seems to shine brightly.
