Bitcoinrouter

A high powered plug-and-play router built for the modern Internet connected home. The router provides bitcoin and lightning fullnode, VPN and Tor so that your private data stays secure inside your home. The full node allows you to broadcast your bitcoin payments and transactions, host your own lightning channels and keep everything behind Tor protecting your privacy.

We have chosen to build on top of the Turris Mox, which is an open source router from the Czech Republic. It has a modular design with each module connecting via PCI. This makes it a very extensible platform. For more info see here: https://www.turris.cz/en/mox/overview/

We think it's important to give the wider public access to Bitcoin's most important features: financial sovereignty and privacy. But we also see Bitcoin as part of a bigger picture rather than at the centre. This is why devices like the Mox should make it easy for people to use. To route all their traffic via a VPN provider that they trust, or Tor over VPN for Internet traffic that may be more sensitive. A router that supports multiple devices in the home but gives people viable alternatives to cloud storage.
