When people see Bitcoin Beef Bits for the first time, they usually compare it to jerky. At first glance, the comparison makes sense. Both use dried meat, both are easy to carry, and both have existed, in one form or another, for generations.

However, Bitcoin Beef Bits belong in their own category. We make them differently, they taste different, and, as a result, they follow a very different philosophy of food.

Traditionally, jerky was simple and honest. People preserved meat using salt, time, and natural drying methods. In many ways, Beef Bits align more closely with that original idea than most modern products sold as jerky today. Still, the end result is not jerky, and it is not trying to be.

For example, jerky usually starts with a marinade. Makers add soy sauce, sugar, spices, tenderizers, and preservatives to shape both flavor and texture.

By contrast, we start with beef and salt. Nothing more. We skip marinades, sweetness, and softening agents. Instead, we use real grass-fed, pasture-raised beef sourced directly from Finnish farms that practice zero waste.

Because of that choice, our ingredient list contains just two words. We wanted a food that reflects transparency and purity. Beef. Salt. That’s it.

Beyond ingredients, the real difference lies in how we dry the beef. Bitcoin Beef Bits use heat generated by Bitcoin mining. Mining produces heat as a byproduct, and in most systems, that heat goes to waste. In our case, we capture it and use it to transform raw beef into a crisp, naturally preserved, high-protein food.

Rather than relying on dehydrators or ovens, we use the steady airflow of a miner. Additionally, multiple filters ensure consistent quality throughout the process. We also avoid smoke flavor entirely, allowing the beef itself to remain the focus.

As a result, the final product doesn’t look or feel like jerky. Instead, it’s crisp, lightweight, and clean. It eats more like a crunchy carnivore chip than a chewy strip.

Ultimately, the recipe is simple. Beef. Salt. Heat. Time. Proof of work.
