After another break, Ryan joins me for an interview. He works at a Canadian nuclear research facility and is an expert in this field. Of course, I had to bring him on to talk about the current state of nuclear energy, small modular reactors (SMRs) and the combination of those technologies with Bitcoin Mining.
Really enjoyed making this and hope you enjoy listening just as much!

3 A: Ocean Energy - Baseload for Bitcoin /w Nate
Aloha!
In this episode, I chat with Nate Harmon from OceanBitEnergy about OTEC, among other things. OTEC is a technology that is currently seen as highly inefficient and capital-intensive. Bitcoin Mining has the chance to change that. Listen to Nate explaining how. He is a wealth of knowledge, and I am happy to have sat down with him.

[GER] 2 A: Frisch aus dem Lab /w Calé
In dieser Episode unterhalte ich mich ausgiebig mit Kristian “Calé” Kläger von der Kläger Group über die Entwicklungen der letzten Monate mit Bezug zum Bitcoin Mining. Als eines der ersten mittelständisches Unternehmen in Deutschland hat die Kläger Group Bitcoin Mining integriert, um mehr Solarstrom nutzen zu können und Abwärme in Betriebsprozesse einzuleiten. Ein wahres Leuchtturm-Projekt für die Möglichkeiten, die Bitcoin Mining ermöglicht.
Wir unterhalten uns außerdem über das frisch ausgegründete Projekt: Terahash. Seit Februar bietet die Plattform “Education, Energy and Events” und damit eine Anlaufstelle für Interessierte, Unternehmen und Kritiker sich mit dem Thema Bitcoin auseinanderzusetzen.
Danke für deine Zeit Kris!
