Spoiler alert: Bitcoin is not boiling the oceans. $ BTC 109,080 Block Height 920,405 Today's guest on the show is Daniel Batten who joins me to discuss his work concerning Bitcoin mining. How did Daniel find himself on a mission to start fighting the fudsters, such as Greenpeace and many other paid shills who are hell bent on trying to label Bitcoin as bad for the environment? What was the response to his first-ever post about his research and how did that make him feel? Why has he moved to Costa Rica and what does he hope to do with vast piles of rotting garbage? A huge thank you to Daniel for all his work in the Bitcoin space and for fighting the endless stream of complete nonsense!

In this podcast episode, Daniel Batten discusses the environmental impacts of Bitcoin mining, his journey into Bitcoin, the IMF's influence on Bitcoin adoption, and his current projects in Latin America. Key Topics: Bitcoin and the environment The role of Bitcoin in stabilizing grids and accelerating renewable energy transition IMF and its influence on Bitcoin adoption Bitcoin as a solution to landfills CH4 Capital Summary: Daniel Batten debunks the common misconception that Bitcoin is bad for the environment by comparing it to the early days of solar technology, which also faced similar criticisms. He explains that Bitcoin mining, when powered by renewable energy sources, can be emission-reducing. He emphasizes that negative headlines about Bitcoin's environmental impact often overshadow positive stories, such as its role in mitigating methane emissions, stabilizing the grid, and accelerating the renewable energy transition. Daniel criticizes the media for disproportionately reporting negative aspects of Bitcoin mining while ignoring positive externalities. He uses the example of wasted wind energy in the UK, where wind farms are often built in remote locations without adequate infrastructure to transport the electricity to consumers. He explains that Bitcoin mining can utilize this wasted energy, turning a problem into an economic opportunity. Daniel shares his journey into Bitcoin, which began with his work in impact investing. He invested in climate tech companies focused on reducing CO2 emissions, but he wanted to have a more immediate and significant impact, particularly on methane emissions. His research led him to landfills, a major source of methane emissions, and he realized that Bitcoin mining could provide an economic incentive to capture and utilize landfill gas for energy. Daniel explains the concept of modern sanitary landfills that are lined to prevent leakage into the soil. However, these landfills create a compacted environment that causes the waste to rot without air, producing methane. Most of the landfills in the world release methane into the air, which is harmful to the environment. Daniel talks about the cost to build landfills, which can be hundreds of millions of dollars. He said waste management will always be one of the biggest single line items on your local government bill. He discusses the potential for Bitcoin mining to utilize wasted energy from hydro dams, as demonstrated by Bhutan. Bhutan used wasted energy from the hydro dams to mine Bitcoin, which helped them avoid an IMF bailout. Now Bitcoin mining is 40% of their entire GDP. There are now 10 nation states that are mining bitcoin. According to Daniel, the predominant method has been to mine bitcoin as a nation state and to acquire Bitcoin that way. Daniel discusses the IMF's concerns about Bitcoin adoption in countries like El Salvador, Argentina, Pakistan, and the Central African Republic. He suggests that the IMF's concerns are not genuine but are driven by the fear of losing customers and geopolitical influence. He discusses John Perkins's work on economic hitmen and how the IMF and World Bank can trap countries in debt cycles, extracting resources and influencing their economies. Daniel shares that he is currently located in Costa Rica, where he is working on projects to capture landfill gas and use it for Bitcoin mining. He's working on establishing the infrastructure needed to capture and utilize landfill gas for Bitcoin mining. He highlights the challenges of finding suitable sites for Bitcoin mining, regardless of the energy source. He discusses CH4 Capital, a company he operates where people can get a non-exceptional return. CH4 capital is a vehicle where people can get a combination of money coming in through the loan repayments, but also through the carbon credits without the conditions that the IMF have attached. Finally, Daniel shares who he would give his last orange pill to: the head of the United Nations, because the story of Bitcoin's social utility is so untold. He says that if the head of the UN knew that 300,000 refugees have used Bitcoin to flee their homeland and set up from scratch, then those sorts of stories would just find their way through into popular consciousness much more.
Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week, Helius's Mert returns to defend Zcash's ~400% run and the “encrypted Bitcoin” framing, digging into anonymity sets, privacy UX, and why Bitcoiners are so riled up. We then tackle the Tempo bombshell — a ~$500M raise at a ~$5B pre, Stripe/Paradigm ties, Dankrad's move from the EF — alongside Péter Szilágyi's letter on EF culture and compensation: public goods priesthood vs. market incentives. Next up: Mert's “USD Manlet” rethink (why coordinating Solana around one stable is hard, and why pushing USDT to compete with USDC may be the sharper play) plus a gripe-fueled tour of today's DeFi trading UX. Finally, an AWS-outage autopsy: Coinbase downtime, Base sequencer hiccups, Infura/MetaMask ripple effects, and the case for multi-region/multi-cloud redundancy when real money — and sometimes safety — are on the line. And no, despite the memes, Mert is not launching a DEX.

Redefining education with a Bitcoin ethos. $ BTC 106,880 Block Height 919,651 Today's guest on the show is Josh from the Consensus21 educational project. Why was he inspired to join another Bitcoiner on a mission to redefine education? What challenges have they faced in setting up a 'school' in Melbourne, Australia, and what do they hope to teach the kids? Why do they want to inspire you to set up your own schools around the world, and how can they help you replicate their model? Is the education system broken, or is it working perfectly as designed? A huge thank you to Josh and Kirean for everything they are doing in order to help educate as many people about bitcoin as they can.

In this episode, Josh talks about Consensus 21, a school he's building in Australia with Kieran, focusing on Bitcoin principles and future-oriented skills, aiming to revolutionize education. Key Topics: Education Bitcoin Homeschooling Decentralization Entrepreneurship Summary: Josh discusses the concept of Consensus 21, a school he is developing with Kieran in Australia, rooted in Bitcoin principles and designed to prepare children for the future. His inspiration came from his personal experience with his children's education and a desire to create a community-focused learning environment that aligns with the values of decentralization and financial literacy. Josh shares his journey from traditional schooling to exploring alternatives like homeschooling and world schooling, noting the challenges and limitations of current educational systems. He emphasizes the importance of incorporating Bitcoin principles into education, believing that a Bitcoiner's mindset is essential to fixing the broken educational system. The school aims to provide an environment where kids can learn about AI, entrepreneurship, finance, and technology in a way that is relevant and engaging. The school will be run on a Bitcoin standard, with tuition being put into a time lock and redistributed to the students when they graduate or have a viable business idea. The curriculum will focus on child-led learning, where kids are encouraged to pursue their interests and passions, fostering a love for learning. Josh mentions that Consensus 21 plans to implement a "School Improvement Protocol" (SIP) where students can propose new courses or activities, promoting student agency and communication skills. The school will have a main campus in Australia, with plans to expand and offer the Consensus 21 protocol to other schools and communities. The goal is to create an open-source platform that anyone can use to implement a similar educational model. Despite considering a completely private, self-funded model, they realized the potential to scale more quickly by leveraging government funding in Australia, where private schools are funded without heavy curriculum restrictions. Josh expresses his excitement about the project and his eagerness to provide this unique educational experience for his own children. He emphasizes the importance of creating an environment where kids can thrive, learn valuable skills, and develop a strong understanding of Bitcoin and Austrian economics. He also acknowledges the challenges of getting a school up and running, but remains optimistic and determined to bring this vision to life. He concludes by highlighting the generosity and support of the Bitcoin community, which has already contributed equipment and expertise to the school. He also mentions that the the most important orange pill should go to Elon Musk.
In this conversation, André Loja discusses the Free Madeira project, which aims to promote Bitcoin adoption through education and community engagement. He highlights the success of merchant adoption on the island, the impact of Bitcoin conferences, and the development of the Basalto Fund, which allows investors to gain residency in Portugal while investing in Bitcoin.The conversation also touches on the future of Madeira as a hub for Bitcoin and related technologies, emphasizing the importance of community and collaboration.Takeaways:
In this episode of the Bitcoin for Corporations Show, host Pierre Rochard is joined by Khing Oei, Founder and CEO of Treasury, to unpack one of the most important macro theses in modern finance: how Bitcoin is evolving beyond "digital gold" to become the capital base layer of the global economy — and why that shift could disrupt credit markets at their core.Oei shares his expertise in credit markets and distressed asset investing, breaking down why Bitcoin treasury companies exist while gold treasury companies never emerged, and how equity issuance, regulatory arbitrage, and balance sheet engineering are accelerating institutional Bitcoin adoption. The conversation explores how securitized Bitcoin products and corporate treasury structures could unlock a massive wave of demand — creating a reflexive feedback loop that transforms balance sheets, yield curves, and global capital flows.You'll also learn how Europe's regulatory landscape and tax treatment are shaping the next phase of Bitcoin-backed credit, why companies like MicroStrategy pioneered this model, and how future corporate issuers could become engines of structural demand far larger than ETFs or retail investors.Chapters:00:00 – Intro: Bitcoin vs. Gold – The Treasury Debate00:55 – Treasury: Going Public in Amsterdam01:23 – From Goldman Sachs to Bitcoin: Khing Oei03:04 – Why Bitcoin Treasury Companies Exist — And Gold Never Will07:45 – Scaling the Bitcoin Treasury Model: Balance Sheet Engineering Explained14:12 – Preferred Shares, Perpetuals, and the Rise of Bitcoin-Backed Credit21:38 – Equity vs. Debt: Strategic Capital Structure on a Bitcoin Standard28:04 – Investor Appetite and Yield Dynamics in Bitcoin-Backed Instruments34:52 – Building a Bitcoin Ecosystem: Media, Events, and Network Effects41:10 – Corporate Treasuries: Driving Reflexive Demand48:03 – The Path to Institutional Maturity: From Treasury Strategy to Financial Products54:45 – Macro Shifts: European Pension Funds and Fixed Income Culture1:02:00 – Regulatory Arbitrage in Europe?1:04:03 – Europe's Fiscal Health and Bond Yields: Macro Forces Fueling the Bitcoin Era

Bitcoin's October rally isn't just another crypto surge — it's part of what JPMorgan calls the Debasement Trade. As gold spikes and the dollar weakens, major banks and economists are finally voicing fears long held by Bitcoiners: runaway deficits, fading Fed independence, and a loss of faith in fiat currencies. Today NLW unpacks why Wall Street is suddenly embracing Bitcoin as a hedge against currency decay, how Japan's yield crisis and global debt pressures fit in, and what the IMF's latest warnings mean for the next phase of this trade.

We connect the macro to the miner. Gold at highs, BRICS hedging, and the sudden flood of stablecoin rails from Big Tech and fintech aren't random—together they outline how the U.S. could accumulate Bitcoin through balance-sheet proxies (think corporate treasuries and miners) instead of a headline-grabbing “sell gold, buy BTC.” If Bitcoin is the new reserve asset, its long-run security budget can't rely on price doubling forever or on “fees will save us.” We dig into why miners keep going bankrupt post-halvings, how AI is siphoning racks and power, what a policy path of subsidies for home nodes/miners might look like, and why that still isn't enough to keep Bitcoin credibly neutral. Enter NAT: a parallel, market-driven subsidy that pays miners without touching 21M—designed to counter deflationary hardware trends and reduce centralization pressure. We cover who would actually buy NAT (and why we want miners to sell it), the “strategic reserve via companies” thesis, and how this all fits the next 100 years of dollar rails, stablecoins, and energy. If you're a miner, dev, or serious Bitcoiner who cares about durability over vibes, this one's for you. Nothing here is financial advice. Topics: First up, We connect the macro to the miner. Gold at highs, BRICS hedging, and the sudden flood of stablecoin rails from Big Tech and fintech aren't random Next, If Bitcoin is the new reserve asset, its long-run security budget can't rely on price doubling forever or on “fees will save us.” and Finally, covering who would actually buy NAT (and why we want miners to sell it) Please like and subscribe on your favorite podcasting app!

Michael Saylor’s Bitcoin play might crash the gates of the S&P 500 as early as Friday, Dogecoin moons on a $6M ETF launch, and Argentina’s peso freefall has Bitcoiners saying “told you so.” The U.S. Treasury is tinkering with stablecoin rules, lawmakers want crypto in your 401(k), and Tether swears it’s not bailing on Uruguay. Meanwhile, Ted Cruz drops a bill for an AI sandbox, and Google admits it’s been censoring political content on YouTube. We know all about being censored, huh YouTube? But we’re not very bitter.
