The holiday season is now upon us. While we’re all taking advantage of the massive sales on cryptocurrency, why not pick up some fun gear to go along with it? Or better yet, grab some gifts for your friends and family as a consolation for the next time you start rambling about your favorite coin.
Here are some of my favorite deals that are happening right now. Tweet me if you have something to add! @StacieWaleyko

Full Nodes
Free Trezor One with the purchase of a Casa Node
Ends Monday Nov 26
$50 off Casa Lighting Node: $250
EXPIRED! Offer only good on the first 25 nodes sold. Discount applied at checkout.
The Casa Lightning node is something I’m really excited about. I’ve got one on the way in December and I’m really looking forward to trying it out. It’s a plug and play solution for anyone that wants to start running a Lightning node. It comes pre synced with the Bitcoin blockchain and includes a 1TB hard drive. Best of all, it does not include any of the headaches that come with setting up a node from scratch.
Connectivity
goTenna Mesh – 40% off
Use promo code MESH for 40% off. Approximately $108 for two, $198 for four, or $348 for eight!
I have to say, this is the most exciting Black Friday deal for me. This little device allows you to send Bitcoin transactions without an Internet connection or a cell signal. If that’s not enough, it’s also useful for outdoor adventure, international travel, and in disaster areas.
How it works: Each goTenna transmits UHF frequencies that reach up to 4 miles in open areas and .5 miles in dense locations. Pair your phone to your goTenna to send texts, GPS locations, or public broadcasts to all goTennas in the area. If a nearby goTenna user has cell service, you can transmit your message through them. It’s the peer to peer communication network we’ve all been wishing for!
For a seamless, out of the box Bitcoin experience, use your goTenna with a Samourai wallet.
Metal Seed Storage
Crypto Key Stack – 25% off Sitewide
$33.75 for the basic Builder’s Stack
Use promo code 25%OFF. Ends Monday Nov 26.
Fireproof, waterproof, and rust resistant, the Crypto Key Stack was only one of two metal cold storage device to pass Jameson Lopp’s Metal Bitcoin Seed Storage Stress Test with flying colors.
Stickers, Apparel, and Art
Discounts Across the Blockstream Store
Prices as marked. 50% off stickers with varying discounts on all other items. Ends Monday Nov 26.
The Blockstream store has all kinds of markdowns going on right now. My favorite is the popular “I got Lightning working and all I got was this sticker”. Coming in at a close second are the “Don’t trust. Verify.” t shirts which are on sale for $12.99.
