Lessons From a First-Time Miner w/ Santosh
In this episode, Santosh shares his real-world journey into Bitcoin mining — from buying his first 10 ASICs to dealing with warranty delays, broken hashboards, and the tough reality of hosted retail mining.
We cover the full cycle: why he started mining, what changed once the machines were online, and what he learned the hard way. This episode is packed with practical lessons for anyone thinking about mining — especially if you're starting small and hosting machines remotely.
