    Great interview! IREN had an awesome earnings report this week, and they're in an excellent position to thrive post-halving and become one of the very top mining companies.

    Wow! Up to this point, I haven't understood much about the economics of mining, and this was really helpful in describing the broad considerations.
    Love to see people figuring out how to get an edge in a cutthroat business.

    It bothers me that all he seemed to talk about was capital raise and not actually viable business models, just the perception of a viable business model using their access to power to pitch things.

    This morning's news talked about Wyoming coal leases not being renewed in the United States.... Wondering what would be the effect to flare gas into Bitcoin using the existing coal fields instead of digging more coal this would be a better use of efficiency in my view

    Ask him to stop diluting us 😂

    • @TheFourSatoshis
      @TheFourSatoshis Месяц назад +2

      IREN and Cleanspark will leave all miners behind, IREN have 300Mw of facilities. If they get cash for rigs they could even overtake Cleanspark !

    @DanielGonzales-di6tq Месяц назад +2

    Sounds like he might not be a Bitcoiner. 😂 sorry in advance, that’s me being a troll.
    More seriously, a lot of people aren’t convinced about their Zero Bitcoin Balance sheet strategy. I’d be happy if they just hodl’d 10% of their mined BTC.

    • @IVIagicful
      @IVIagicful Месяц назад

      What for? Who are they benefitting? Investors who could use that same money and invest in btc themselves?

    • @robertanderson6841
      @robertanderson6841 Месяц назад +1

      Because they are worried about pitches and fundraising not business models or BTC. That is just the current thing people are willing to fund. Listen to everything he says, it all is from angles of how to get people to give them money, not how they will make money as a business. Their business is raising money leveraging their access to power.

    Bullish on Iren

  • @robertanderson6841
    @robertanderson6841 Месяц назад +1

    It isn’t as simple as unplugging BTC rigs and plugging in GPUs. This sounds great but what is the reality of all this talk?

  • @dannybitcoin116
    @dannybitcoin116 Месяц назад

    Yeah, when he changes the name of the podcast and starts doing just macro stuff and not focusing just on bitcoin, Danny should totally do a bitcoin only podcast and it will surpass Pete’s in the future if he just focuses on bitcoin….

      This halving is a bit more stable this time- more mainstream, halving acts as a foundamental supply shock,

    • @cecilechau7932
      @cecilechau7932 Месяц назад

      There is usually about 63 to 6 months lag for the market to react to the supply shock and the price impact is actually fundamental. So, we should expect something similar as observed.

      Considering Iren assists in WBD's ability to finance and create connections for the content that we love is amazing. To then go and dismiss them when they get an opportunity to tell us their progress is a spit in the face to Pete and Danny.
      You sir are still stuck in the fiat mindset.

    • @GRumpyonekinobi
      @GRumpyonekinobi Месяц назад

      I felt like that too but I still think its worth staying for their take, I always learn something from WBD.
