FutureBit's first in-person store launch includes the Brooklyn location—where the company originally purchased its early mining hardware components.
Brooklyn, New York, November 12 /PRNewswire/ — Customers will for the first time be able to walk into a store and take home a FutureBit Bitcoin miner. The Apollo III Full Node will be available for purchase starting Friday, November 13, at Micro Center locations including Brooklyn, New York; Miami, Florida; Tustin, California; and Austin, Texas. This four-store launch coincides with the grand opening of Micro Center’s new Austin location.
FutureBit founder John Stefanopoulos said: “When we started FutureBit, we would go weekly to the DIY electronics section of Micro Center in Brooklyn to buy parts. By Friday, someone could walk into the same store, ask how Bitcoin mining works, and walk out with a miner we designed just nearby. We’re thrilled to partner with Micro Center for our first in-store launch.”
Through sales at Micro Center, FutureBit customers gain the opportunity to experience the Apollo III firsthand and understand how it works, while Micro Center’s millions of in-store visitors are introduced to home Bitcoin mining for the first time. This marks the next step in FutureBit’s long-term mission: decentralizing the network and placing greater control in the hands of individual users.
Customers can reserve Apollo III online and pick it up at a Micro Center store. Product details and images are available from FutureBit.
