“The great thing about purchasing one of these optimized systems is that we take the guesswork out of choosing the best PC for your needs,” said Caleb Borgstrom, founder of Lyte Technology, in a statement. “And as we work to make Phunware’s vision for a blockchain-enabled, decentralized data economy possible, it only makes sense to better meet the needs of our growing community by accepting bitcoin.”
