About this episode
In this episode, Erik Hersman shares his journey from being a tech advocate in Africa to becoming a key player in the Bitcoin mining space.
We discuss the innovative approach of Gridless, a Bitcoin mining company that focuses on utilising stranded energy in rural Africa. Gridless are one of my favourite Bitcoin companies out there, I hope you enjoy this conversation as their work is really important.
