Umbrel review
Your own Bitcoin node and personal server
The story
Umbrel started in 2021 as an open-source project to make running your own Bitcoin node as easy as installing an app. umbrelOS is free and runs on a Raspberry Pi or old PC; Umbrel Home is the plug-and-play home server. Beyond Bitcoin and Lightning you can run dozens of self-hosted apps — maximum digital independence.
What they stand for
- Free, open-source umbrelOS
- Bitcoin + Lightning node at home
- Umbrel Home from €479 (up to 4TB)
Products & services
Security & trust
- 100% open-source
- Self-hosted: your keys, your data
- Runs locally — no cloud required
Where it falls short
- You are the administrator: updates, backups and the security of the node are on you.
- A full node needs disk space and a machine that stays on day and night; the ready-made Umbrel Home costs €479.
From €479 — up to 4TB SSD storage

How this offer works
Four steps. You know upfront what happens and who does what.
- 1
You go to Umbrel
The button below opens Umbrel in a new tab. It's an affiliate link: we receive a fee if you buy something there. It costs you nothing extra and changes nothing about the price or the terms.

Choose your product and order
You pay at Umbrel itself. An account or identity check is only needed if Umbrel asks for one when you order.

Enter the code
No code is needed. The offer is linked automatically because you arrive through our link — so don't open the platform in another tab first.

Discount and delivery
Umbrel applies the discount and delivers the order, not Cryptocodes. If something isn't right, contact Umbrel; we have no access to your order.
