20Mission, a co-working space dedicated to art and technology creators, announced the launch of Nakamoto's electronics, the first Bitcoin retail store in San Francisco.

Located in the heart of San Francisco's Mission District, 20Mission is a co-working and co-living space, former home to several Bitcoin startups, including Blockchain.info, 37Coins, Tradehill, Piper Wallet, and Bitcoin marketplace,Purse.io.
Nakamoto's tech retail store follows the initial concept behind Purse.io, but in brick-and-mortar format, and aims to give more practical uses and applications for the digital currency on a local scale.
As of today, Nakamoto's electronics offers dozens of popular products, including Chromebooks, Amazon Kindles, Apple headphones, and Raspberry Pis. The outlet offers a minimum 10% discount off the Amazon price when paying with Bitcoin.
