Announcing Casa Node 2
Update: Casa Node software is no longer maintained; we recommend looking at other build-your-own node projects.
Today we’re excited to announce the Casa Node 2!
Casa Node 2 is a faster, smoother Bitcoin and Lightning experience, running with a faster processor on the Raspberry Pi 4 with 4GB RAM and a 1TB SSD. All packaged in a gorgeous new case, similar in size to the original Casa Node.
We’re also launching a new version of NodeOS with a totally new design and dark mode. With this new NodeOS update, the Casa Node 2 will also be running BTCPayServer.
You can earn Bitcoin every week by running a Casa Node with Sats App and the Node Heartbeat, and the Casa Node 2 makes that easier than ever, with faster connection and response times.
With so much packed into Casa Node 2, we are raising the price of the Gold Package with Casa Node 2 to $399. However, existing Casa members will be able to maintain their $300 price for the lifetime of their membership.
As long as you’re a member, you’ll get all new devices and upgrades yearly at the same $300 price point – instead of the $399 full price. We're doing this as a thank you to our earliest customers!
We also will have a limited number of Casa Node 2 for our Q4 shipment at the $300 price, so pre-order yours today before we finish the price change later this year!
We've taken everything we've learned (and loved) about our first full Bitcoin and Lightning node device, and made Casa Node 2 even faster, more beautiful, and more extensible.
Faster
Better CPU, more memory, faster storage—did someone say fast as Lightning?
Our original Casa node did a GREAT job as a full Bitcoin and Lightning node in a reliable, easy-to-use device. But we wanted to do more, and knew we'd have to improve the hardware in order to do it. Under the hood, Casa Node 2 has a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B with 4 GB of RAM, along with a fast 1 TB SSD drive.
Faster, faster, faster.
More Beautiful
A slick new design on the outside, plus our new NodeOS on the inside makes using the Casa Node 2 a fast, elegant experience. We believe sovereignty and safety can also be gorgeous...
More Extensible
We're also starting to add more apps to the Casa Node, with BTCPay Server as our first new addition!
With our new, improved hardware giving us additional computing and storage capabilities, along with our newly designed NodeOS, we're able to go beyond Bitcoin and Lightning Network only features.
To kick things off, we're pleased to welcome BTCPay Server to the Casa Node 2—giving customers the ability to run the popular open-source payment processor right on their Casa Node 2.
We'll be adding more to Casa Node 2 in the coming months, giving your node more and more capabilities. Stay tuned!
