On September 1st 2013, ICANN accredited domain registrar
Astutium Ltd reached our 1st Anniversary of accepting BitCoin for domain names, virtual private/dedicated servers, minecraft hosting and related services.
A lot has changed in that year - not least the BTC/GBP exchange rate ...
a .co.uk domain for 2 years (inc VAT) is now just 0.0798 BTC - the first one we registered for BTC cost 0.355 !
(all our prices are in GBP and converted at time of payment).
To celebrate the 1 Year Milestone we have (in-hand)
50 ASICMiner USB Block Erupters to give away
How to get a free USB-BE ...
* Register a domain at
https://www.astutium.com/domainchecker.php ( or transfer an existing gtld, or renew a domain already with astutium )
and pick BitCoin as the payment method.
* BitPay send us 3 emails during the confirmation of your payment
e.g. 2nd September for 1 paid invoice we have timestamped emails of:
12:16, 12:24, 13:14
* If the HH:MM of any of those 3 exactly match a block found that day by P2Pool
as verified at
UKBMG P2Pool e.g. Mon Sep 02 2013 13:18:52 GMT+0100 (GMT Daylight Time)
^ Had that been found at 13:14 that domain registrant would have been a winner.
Want more chances to win ? It's really easy ....
1. Register more domains
because more paid invoices = more chances (3 chances per paid invoice)
2. Point your miners at our P2Pool (or your own)
because more mining on p2pool = more blocks = greater chance of matching.

3. Take out other Astutium Services like Web Hosting, VPS, Servers and Colocation
any day in September that we take > 50BTC we will order another 50 miners to give away.
