ASK AN ENGINEER – 10PM ET! SATURDAY 11/30/2013! @collinMel special guest Collin Cunningham!!!!
You can see Collin’s series of videos here “MAKE presents” and Collin’s lab. Collin is a Creative Engineer here at Adafruit, maker of videos and our iOS apps… and MORE!
Collin also made the Raspberry Pi Bitcoin miner, we’ll be talking about Bitcoin and more with Collin. Adafruit just added Bitcoin as a form of payment for purchase!
Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority or banks; managing transactions and the issuing of bitcoins is carried out collectively by the network. Bitcoin is open-source; its design is public, nobody owns or controls Bitcoin and everyone can take part. Through many of its unique properties, Bitcoin allows exciting uses that could not be covered by any previous payment system.
