What if turning on the heat didn’t have to cost you money, but make money? With the Qarnot QC-1 Crypto Heater, this future might soon be a reality. The QC-1 Crypto Heater is a sleek and powerful space heater designed to simultaneously produce heat and mine for crypto-currencies. The goal is simple: keep you warm and make you money. It sounds easy enough, but the technology behind the device is anything but. The device is the recent winner of the CES 2018 Eureka Park Climate Change Innovators Award.
It’s designed to be silent, it’s built to last, and its self-contained system is IP-protected. All you need to do is plug it in, monitor the mining levels from your device, and no longer cringe when the latest Nor’easter decides to turn March into a winter wonderland just as the flu season was beginning to dissipate. With a heating booster mode at your fingertips, and crypto-currencies waiting to be mined, you just might be tempted to move to even colder climates, all for the sake of earning extra green every time you turn the heat on.
