BITCOIN MINING CENTRALIZATION & NATION-STATE GAME THEORY | Bob Burnett (THE Bitcoin Podcast)
About this episode
"If you believe, like I do, that Bitcoin in the course of the next century--and probably much, much sooner--becomes the base layer of all money, then access to that base layer becomes existential to your viability as a nation."
On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with Bob Burnett, Founder/CEO at Barefoot Mining. They discuss Bitcoin mining centralization risks, why Nation-States will be forced to mine Bitcoin, home mining, mining pools and block templates, the present and future state of Bitcoin mining, and a whole lot more.
