Yay, an example of a useful service!
21.co seems to be confusing the crap out of people, so I'm hoping that some examples of actual services will maybe cool out some of the more extreme criticisms. The whole marketplace for digital goods thing sounds great to me, I just don't know how they're going to make that $400 price tag tenable.
- steckerbrett 11y agoPity there's absolutely no documentation for any of it.
- astaroth360 11y agoYeah, I think it's going to be a while before this is well developed. For now, it's kind of like an alpha/beta product as far as I can tell.
- steckerbrett 11y agoThey went to all the effort of getting it FCC certified and had injection molds made at considerable expense, this is the final product. It's all about the miner! Which is useless. It's all about the software! Which is closed source, and has no documentation. You'll need one to develop with us! Why? You can buy and sell services with our network! Only to other people who have $400 to drop on a Raspberry Pi.
- astaroth360 11y agoEh, it's a version of their final product. If I remember right this is the gen2 chip already.
- steckerbrett 11y agoDo you realize it's tens of millions of dollars to spin an 18nm ASIC? They're not doing additional revisions, the (at their websites admission) loss-producing miner is as good as it gets.
