Glad to have that side-effect
I recently bought a second hand Pixel 7 and installed grapheneOS on it. I think Ivpn came preinstalled but in any case i paid with lightning. On-chain btc and Monero were also among the options if I recall correctly.
buying a pixel with btc would be awesome. where are you able to do that again, if you don't mind me asking?

There's @shopinbit that does just that #673616

Thanks.
Reading about them now. It would seem they cater mostly to the EU.
Cheers

I used a website that aggregates second hand offers that is used in my region.
If you search engine "second hand website [your country or region]" you may find similar websites.

Interesting thank you.
Although being a security-focused device, I'm not sure I would go second-hand in that case
New though definitely!

Seems to me you may think I paid for the Pixel with bitcoin. Just noticed that.
I paid for the Ivpn vpn provider with bitcoin lightning. The Pixel I paid for with cash.
As for your concern about second-hand:
As with everything there's trade-offs.
I judge the chance that the guy who I bought it from was a malicious hacker to be negligable. Wish I could place bets on that.
If he was I'm not sure how much he might have done that wouldn't be wiped by the process of installing grapheneOS and wiping what was on there. Would be interesting to read about that but it would be more of an academic sort of curiosity.
