Ep. 55 Bitcoin Mining with Alternative Fuel with Stronghold Digital Mining

Hey everyone, welcome to this week’s release of the Watts & Blocks Podcast, powered by Giga Energy. This week on the show I had the pleasure of sitting down with Greg Beard the CEO at Stronghold Digital Mining. This was another one of those episodes where I have been a huge admirer of the business model of being a truly vertically integrated bitcoin miner and so for me this was a ton of fun to go deeper on how that all works at Stronghold. Greg gets really technical on the reclamation process and not only what the benefits are of doing that and how it is allowing the communities to reclaim huge swaths of land but also how the ash is being leveraged for carbon capture projects. This is one of those episodes that highlights exactly how bitcoin mining is a bolt on to an existing electrical producer which I am a firm believer that this business model is what the future of bitcoin mining will look like! And so with that, I hope that you enjoy my discussion with Greg Beard!
