Ep. 5 Bitcoin Mining with Stranded Energy

On today's show, my guest is Bob Burnett. Bob is the CEO and Founder of Barefoot Mining, a company that is focused on the development of the horse-class bitcoin mining site. Barefoot Mining has made it a goal to grow and expand the bitcoin network via bitcoin mining by expanding its footprint across a wide range of scales, site locations, and power sources. Barefoot Mining and Bob are in a unique position to shed light on some of the more unique, off-grid electrical sources for power.

On today’s show, Bob and I will talk through his thoughts and opinions on the commoditization of bitcoin mining servers, why the bitcoin mining server industry has some insulation from becoming as commoditized as the personal computer and cell phone industries, we explore some of the different attack vectors that bitcoin mining needs to stay insulated from, and what horse-class mining sites are and how Barefoot Mining is approaching off-grid power. Bob brings over 35 years of knowledge and experience in the technology industry to this conversation and has a wealth of knowledge on these unique off-grid power sources.
