The cryptocurrency craze is in full swing, and the smarter ones can earn a lot on it. An example of this is the company Qarnot, which cares both for the maintenance of a decentralized blockchain network and for heat in our homes. In other words, get to know QC-1, the radiator in the form of a unit adapted to mining cryptocurrencies.
Yes, the QC-1 is a home heater that houses a passive computer optimized for mining. The structure itself is made of an aluminum radiator with a wooden finish (and a touch panel), inside which there is a place for a unit consisting of two graphics cards, a processor and a power supply. All this is cooled in a passive way, without any fans and as a result of noise.
The power of the device oscillates around 500 W, which we can freely adjust and regulate in terms of the emitted heat. They consist of the aforementioned processor and two Radeon RX 580 Sapphire Nitro + models with 8 GB of VRAM. Such a duo is able to provide computing power when mining Ethereum at the level of 60 megahash per second. This translates into a monthly profit of EUR 100 without electricity costs. Of course, right after connecting the Ethernet connector, power cord and virtual wallet.
A price for such a luxury? 2,900 euros. Anyone who places an order before March 20 will receive their own QC-1 by June 20 this year. This is not a stupid idea, because the French entrepreneur has been selling his products to new apartments and large office buildings since 2010.
