Lasers

It is now possible for bitcoiners to become their favorite Star Wars character by purchasing a laser with their digital currency stash. Bitlasers.com is a business that specializes in laser sales and accepts a variety of cryptocurrencies. For instance, for roughly 0.0986 BTC bitcoin enthusiasts can purchase a handheld laser with an optical power of around 1300 mW. The laser is dubbed “Bitbrew” after one of the company’s favorite coffee shops that accepts bitcoin. Bitbrew has a laser wavelength of 445 nm and comes in a bright fluorescent-like blue color.

Bitlasers also has more expensive and more powerful lasers available for bitcoin, but the company warns these products are not toys. If a user is not careful, these lasers are capable of causing permanent blindness, as well as skin damage, and can severely burn people and objects.

Diving Machines and Mini-Submarines

If someone is looking to go nautical with their bitcoins they may want to visit the website Bitpremier, which calls itself the “luxury marketplace for bitcoiners.” Of course, people can buy fancy automobiles and yachts on the website, but they can also purchase submarines to voyage into the deep depths of the ocean blue. For instance, one ad on Bitpremier is selling an “Ultimate Diving Machine” that resembles a submarine shaped like a shark. For 115 BTC a bitcoiner can purchase this two-seater craft with a bubble top canopy. It has an underwater camera system, many viewports, snorkel extensions, and also comes with a custom shark paint job and a trailer.

If you have deeper pockets and want to purchase a professional grade mini-submarine for 2,271 bitcoins, Bitpremier can help you there as well. The mini-submarines are capable of diving down to a depth of “100 meters to 300 meters with three people.” The Bitpremier ad states these mini submersibles are fast, with six thrusters for strong currents and small enough to fit on an existing super-yacht. Anyone who is looking to fulfill their Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea fantasies can do so now with bitcoin.

A Trip to Space

As a forward thinking company, Virgin Galactic believes utilizing bitcoin as payment for spaceflight is only natural.

Drones and Robotics

Furthermore, the company has stated in the past that both technologies will help each other grow. Additionally, the Virginia-based Expert Drones accepts the decentralized currency for drone purchases. The company specializes in drone kits, accessories, repairs, and training for both novices and veteran drone experts.
