Justin Ballard (@JLB_Oso) and Jake Corley (@jacobcorley) regroup to riff on miner-to-AI megadeals, gas-to-power plays, and a modular ASIC that could reset fleet economics.AI x Power x BitcoinThis week we break down:TeraWulf × Google – a 10-year, 200 MW hosting deal (headline $3.7B; options could push multiyear value far higher) and why clean, reliable electrons (nuke/hydro) earn a premium—and might end in outright M&A.Who's Next? – the consolidation map: why Bitfarms (and possibly IREN/Iris) look “target-ready,” what MARA/RIOT are more likely to do, and how miner stock spikes telegraph hyperscaler interest.CoreWeave–Core Scientific Playbook – how long-dated revenue agreements morph into acquisitions when the real prize is energized, rack-ready capacity.Coterra's Power Option – a 7-year gas sale to CPV's 1.3 GW CCGT in Ward County with the right to buy ~250 MW/day indexed to ERCOT West—the first true Permian netback template and what it signals for E&Ps.Turbines, Permits & Sudoku – deposits and long lead times, GPA/air permits (NOx/CO₂), and the catch-22 between offtakes and hardware—why scale + compliance + capital win.Block's Proto Miner – Apple-clean design, rack-side sub-90-second repairs (as pitched), modular hashboards, open-source fleet software, and a 10-year design life—what that does to uptime and capex cycles.The AI Arms Race – trillion-dollar capex, billion-dollar talent bids, China's generation build-out, and why power-secure brownfield beats greenfield timelines.Where to Find Us IRL – Permian Power Conference (Midland, Sep 29–30) + Texas Capitol investor day/North American Blockchain Summit (Dallas, October).

Aydin Kilic, CEO of HIVE Digital (HIVE), talks about how his company has quadrupled revenue over the past year. He credits the company's expansion from mining 6 Bitcoin a day to 9 -- which he says translates to $1 million daily revenue for HIVE. Aydin expects that number to grow into the fall and sees room to run when it comes to a re-rating of the stock price. He also explains HIVE's partnership with Nvidia (NVDA) and its role for HIVE's outlook.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Beau Turner, founder of Abundant Mines, shared his journey from building a successful real estate portfolio to going all in on Bitcoin mining. While real estate offered strong wealth-building potential, he realized it didn't ignite his passion long-term. After discovering Bitcoin in 2015 and gaining conviction by 2020, he transitioned into mining because it combined cash flow and tax advantages similar to real estate while aligning with his interest in technology and innovation.He explained that Bitcoin mining converts energy into digital assets by running specialized computers that secure the network and process transactions. Mining functions like a lottery system, rewarding participants roughly every ten minutes with Bitcoin and transaction fees. For investors, mining not only generates income but also provides tax benefits from depreciating equipment. Turner emphasized that hosting with a reliable partner avoids technical hurdles and maximizes efficiency compared to trying to mine at home.From a financial perspective, mining equipment typically costs around $10,000 per unit, with monthly operating expenses near $225. At favorable Bitcoin prices, revenues can reach about $500/month per machine, yielding roughly 50% margins. Machines generally last four to six years, and efficiency improvements have slowed, suggesting newer models may remain viable longer. Crucially, Abundant Mines pays returns in Bitcoin while leaving custody to the client, ensuring that investors retain control of their assets.He also highlighted the risks and opportunities. Investors must be bullish on Bitcoin's long-term future, as mining revenues depend on its price. Counterparty risk exists if hosting partners are unreliable, but Abundant Mines was founded to solve that very issue. Mining further plays an important role in the energy economy by monetizing wasted or stranded energy and even creating community benefits such as powering greenhouses with excess heat.Looking ahead, Beau sees Bitcoin and AI as complementary forces in the broader compute economy. He also pointed to tax advantages, including 100% bonus depreciation for mining equipment under current legislation, making mining an attractive way to generate income while reducing taxable liabilities. Ultimately, Beau views mining as not just a wealth-building tool but also an opportunity to participate in the future of finance and energy.Takeaways• Beau Turner transitioned from real estate to Bitcoin mining for greater passion and opportunity.• Bitcoin mining is a way to turn energy into a digital asset, providing cash flow.• Investing in Bitcoin is essential as it represents a small fraction of global assets.• Mining serves as an educational tool, helping investors understand the crypto landscape.• The economics of mining can yield significant returns compared to traditional investments.• Mining can positively impact local communities through energy efficiency and food production.• Investors should be cautious about the risks associated with crypto investments.• Choosing the right partners in mining is crucial for success.• AI and Bitcoin mining have different load profiles but can complement each other.• Tax benefits from mining can enhance overall investment strategies.Sound Bites• Mining is the best vehicle for education.• Bitcoin is a counterparty free asset.• We do a ton of free educational content.Listen & Subscribe for More:

My guest today is Bob Burnett, veteran technologist, former Gateway CTO, and now CEO of Barefoot Mining. From consumer tech pioneer with eight U.S. patents to leader in sovereign Bitcoin mining, Bob shares his vision for “wild mining,” where miners own their energy using innovative energy sources. He challenges the myth that mining is only for massive corporations, showing how small, strategically placed operations can be both profitable and decentralizing. We discuss adoption curves, block template decentralization, why nation-states should build mining infrastructure before buying Bitcoin reserves, lessons from the early PC revolution, and the coming energy race with AI and High-Performance Computing.► If you got value, please like, comment, share, follow and support my work.

On Friday's show: Cryptocurrency mining in Texas can draw as much power from the electrical grid as the city of Austin, and the industry is only growing. But how much energy is it using? No one knows because the Public Utility Commission refuses to release data on the industry. Reporter Keaton Peters from Straight Arrow News joins us to explain.Also this hour: With news that Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast is closing two of its six clinics in the area, there are fewer options for women's health care in Houston. How are other clinics and health care providers filling that gap?Then, from plans to seize nine acres of unused land from Hermann Park to expand Ben Taub Hospital, to the possibility of a UFC cage fight at the White House next year, our panel of non-experts discusses The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the news.And unpaid bills, broken agreements, and bad behavior -- what are your rights if your roommate crosses the line?

Justin Ballard (@JLB_Oso) and Jake Corley (@jacobcorley) sit down with Bitfarms power duo Rachel Silverstein (GC & firm-builder) and Alex Brammer (ex-Ranger turned HPC czar) to map out Bitfarms' high-voltage pivot from pure Bitcoin mining to hyperscale AI infrastructure. They unpack how a 460 MW fleet, a gigawatt development pipeline, and a fresh $300 million Macquarie project-finance deal are transforming legacy mining sites into liquid-cooled, 600 kW-per-rack AI engines. Discover why a “dream-team” exec roster, project-level debt, and a land-plus-power land-grab strategy could vault Bitfarms from blocks to bots—and what it all means for energy markets, AI's compute arms race, and the future of work.
What does it actually take to mine Bitcoin in El Salvador? In this episode, Mike sits down with Josue Lopez, CEO of Volcano Energy, to break down what's really happening beyond the hype. Josue explains how his team is building energy infrastructure from the ground up, solar, wind, and geothermal, to support a truly sovereign energy mining operation. This isn't about plugging into someone else's grid. It's about designing a system that El Salvador controls end-to-end.They get into the details of mining economics, from why electricity in El Salvador is so expensive to how immersion cooling made it possible to run ASICs in a tropical climate. Josue also shares why Volcano Energy has already raised nearly $300 million and how the team is balancing short-term returns with long-term strategic goals. Whether the energy gets sold to the grid or powers Bitcoin mining directly, the goal is the same—build assets that last and reduce dependency on unstable jurisdictions.The conversation moves beyond Bitcoin into national development. Josue explains how energy, safety, and financial inclusion are all connected.
