#20 - Bob Burnett: 'Wild Mining' & Bringing the Market to the Molecule
About this episode
This episode's guest is Bob Burnett, chairman and CEO at Barefoot mining.
Barefoot focuses primarily on what they call 'wild mining,' or small-to-mid scale bitcoin mining operations, using independent or off-grid energy sources.
Their approach is not only contributing to the monetization of remote or stranded energy resources, which otherwise likely would have remained unproductive, but it's also helping to diversify and decentralize the bitcoin mining ecosystem, making it more resilient to various potential risks and attacks.
Bob is another great example of someone who was reinvigorated with purpose as a result of learning about bitcoin, and I'm grateful for the work he and the team are doing to protect the network and contribute to the innovation taking place in the rapidly co-evolving bitcoin mining and energy industries.
