They also have a budget Ryzen that does the same thing but with their own Vega graphics. I am using one now for web development and distributed ledger development.

I figured those where made much like their APUs of previous years, meaning that it was all on a single die.

You are correct. Look at wikichip for details.

You are careful not to say "blockchain" :)

Just because something is a distributed ledger does not necessarily mean it is a blockchain.

Yes, they are a dev in the cryptocurrency/blockchain space but still, who knows?

Yea, because the term keeps on being conflated. Blockchain means everything from cryptocurrencies to private ledger systems like hyperledger sawtooth.
