Mainstream Media Has FLIPPED on Bitcoin Mining

In this episode, Nik highlights the work of Daniel Batten and walks through 17 examples of mainstream media outlets covering Bitcoin mining in a dramatically more positive light. From Iceland’s renewable-powered farms to flared gas in Texas and hydro-powered villages in Africa, the headlines signal a major shift in narrative. Nik explores how governments like Bhutan are using Bitcoin mining to support economic development, how miners are contributing to energy grids, and how the sector is increasingly seen as a catalyst for sustainability and electrification. This update reflects growing global recognition of Bitcoin’s potential as a public good.
