Futurebit Bitcoin Mining Rigs Hit Retail Stores as Solo Miners Keep Winning Big

Bitcoin mining hardware is heading to retail store shelves as Futurebit partners with electronics retailer Micro Center to sell its Apollo III home mining machines, opening another avenue for consumers to participate in a network increasingly dominated by industrial-scale operations. Brooklyn-based Futurebit announced Thursday that its Apollo III Full Node will be available at four Micro Center locations beginning Friday, Nov. 13. The initial rollout covers stores in Brooklyn, New York; Miami, Florida; Tustin, California; and Austin, Texas, coinciding with the grand opening of Micro Center’s new Austin location. Customers can also reserve the machines online for in-store pickup. The partnership marks Futurebit’s first entry into physical retail, allowing customers to examine mining hardware and learn about bitcoin mining before purchasing a machine.
