In this episode of the Freedom Footprint show, we are joined by Dan Leslie, Business Development Manager at HashX Mining. In the episode, we’ll shed some light into the world of bitcoin mining, in a deep dive that is both technical and philosophical. Beyond mining, we’ll discuss human cooperation, positivity and toxicity in the bitcoin community, the mysticism of Proof of Work, the relationship between bitcoin and energy, and much more.
