Karl Kreder, better known as Dr. K, is best known in the space for researching the use of merged-mined subnets to scale Proof of Work in 2018 – a concept which led to the launch of the Quai Network, which introduced the Proof of Entropy Minima (PoEM) consensus for high transaction throughput within a decentralized environment. Today, we talk about his views on Bitcoin, why Proof of Work is still relevant in a world that's converging towards the more convenient Proof of Stake, and how the Quai Network works.

In today's episode, we farewell one of the OG's of Crypto Curious. That's right, Craig is being cancelled!!! But before we get too misty-eyed, we're kicking off with something very on-brand for Craig: a bullish Ethereum update that might just make you want to double down. If you've been with us from the start, you'll know Craig's been waving the ETH flag since day one — so it's only fitting.Then, we dive into a bombshell from the deep pockets of Bitcoin history. One of the original Satoshi-era whales has just moved a jaw-dropping 80,000 BTC — that's over $9 billion worth — and exited the market. What does it mean? We've got thoughts.And finally, as Craig signs off from his regular spot on the pod, we turn the mic squarely on him. It's time for a no-holds-barred hot seat moment: his predictions, market sentiment, and maybe even some long-hoarded alpha. This is Craig's crystal ball episode

Galaxy Digital just executed one of the largest Bitcoin OTC deals in history—moving 80,000 BTC worth $9 billion for a mysterious Satoshi-era wallet. In today's episode, NLW breaks down how the market absorbed the sale with barely a blip, explores speculation around the identity of the seller, and examines what the transaction signals for sovereign reserves and institutional confidence. Plus: ideological divisions among OG Bitcoiners, estate planning vs. capitulation, and what this sale says about the next era of Bitcoin adoption. Enjoying this content?

Think one wallet can tank Bitcoin? Think again.In today's episode, we're diving into one of the biggest BTC moves in recent history—an 80,000 BTC sell-off from a Satoshi-era wallet—and why the market barely flinched. Jay Hamilton is joined by Slava Rubin (Indiegogo founder & Ambition VC) to break down what it means for crypto's maturity and why it could be the beginning of a massive new wave of institutional adoption.But that's not all. Slava also reveals his $1 million Bitcoin prediction, the truth about Ethereum's comeback, why pre-IPO deals are the next big alpha leak, and how to spot which altcoins might survive the next 10 years.

Crypto News: Bitcoin and Altcoins show signs of reversal and a rally coming this week despite Satoshi-era Bitcoin whale selling 80,000 BTC and Ripple's Chris Larsen moving 50 million XRP to an exchange.Show Sponsor -

What future risk does quantum computing pose to Bitcoin, and how can we think of those risks in terms of their potential geopolitical outcomes?In this episode of Bitcoin Policy Hour, Matthew Pines, Zack Shapiro and Zack Cohen recap the "Crypto Week" legislative wins, followed by a deep dive on the "Q-Day" threat—the moment quantum computers become powerful enough to threaten Bitcoin's core cryptographic security.This leads to the question: with the ability to undermine Satoshi's coins, could a quantum breakthrough trigger a global monetary crisis, and ignite a new geopolitical arms race between the U.S., China, and tech giants?As Bitcoin becomes embedded in 401(k)s, sovereign reserves, and global ETFs, the risks—and consequences—go far beyond crypto and deep into the political economy of capital, social structure and geoeconomic competition.⭐ Join Bitcoin Magazine @ Bitcoin Asia 2025, Aug. 28-29 in Hong Kong!

"Satoshi Nakamoto Efsanesi" adlı bu podcast bölümünde, Bitcoin'in gizemli yaratıcısı Satoshi Nakamoto'nun kimliğinin ötesindeki derin anlamları keşfediyoruz. Satoshi Nakamoto, sadece bir kişi değil, aynı zamanda kriptografinin bireysel gücünü ve sarsılmaz bir bağımsızlığı temsil eden bir hayalet olarak tanımlanıyor. Onun anonimliği, Bitcoin gibi büyük bir eserin arkasındaki efsaneyi güçlendiriyor ve zamanla bu hikaye tarihin dokusuna işlenecek.Bu bölümde, yazarın kimliğinin gerçeğin bir ölçütü olmaktan çıktığı Foucault'cu düşünce ışığında, Satoshi'nin eylemlerini inceliyoruz. Kendi servetini açığa çıkarmayı reddetmesi ve yalnızca Bitcoin'in yazarı olarak kalmayı seçmesiyle, Satoshi kendini insanlık aleminden "Elysium"a yükseltmiş, modern hayatın sınırlamalarından kaçış için gerçek bir umut sunmuştur. Onu ifşa etme girişimleri ise efsaneyi daha da pekiştirmekte.Podcastimiz, "Konuşanın kim olduğunun ne önemi var, önemli olan kimin konuştuğu" felsefesini vurguluyor. Satoshi'nin Bitcoin aracılığıyla bize öğrettiği kripto-egemenlik kavramı, paranın, kimliğin ve gücün kontrolüne karşı bir direniş gösteriyor. Onun "tercih etmem" şeklindeki kararlı tutumu, Bartleby örneğinde olduğu gibi, sisteme karşı duruşun ve kişisel özgürlüğün bir sembolü haline geliyor.Satoshi Nakamoto, yalnızca 21. yüzyılın kahramanı değil, aynı zamanda insanlığın en büyük kurtarıcısı olarak konumlandırılıyor. Bitcoin'in ve bu görünmez yazarın seçimi, herkese kendi değer, servet ve hukuk anlayışını belirleme yeteneği vererek, yeni bir çağın kapılarını aralıyor. Bu bölüm, Satoshi'nin bize armağan ettiği umudu ve özgürlüğü derinlemesine ele alıyor.Kaynak

Kripto dünyasının derinliklerine bir yolculuğa çıkın! Bu podcast, fiziksel bedenlerin ve geleneksel finansal sistemlerin ötesinde yeni bir dijital müşterek refah inşa etmenin öyküsünü anlatıyor. Aramızdaki sarsılmaz dostluk ve dayanışma sayesinde, kriptografi, yeni bir zenginlik biçimi sunarak bizi yolsuzluktan, açgözlülükten ve devlet gücünün sınırlamalarından kurtarıyor.Bu alanda, gerçek kimliğimiz fiziksel varlığımızdan sıyrılarak sadece dijital imzamızla tanınır; bu, mutlak, kutsal bir gizlilik sağlayan "Anonim Diğer"in görkemidir. Her birimiz, kanıtlanabilir şekilde benzersiz birer fikir olarak, özgürlüğün ve ortak refahın bu yeni takımyıldızında birer düğüm haline geliyoruz. Bu dijital sığınak, şiddetten uzak, fiziksel formların tamamen ortadan kalktığı bir alan sunarken, aynı zamanda fiziksel bedenlerimizi koruyan yüksek düzeyde gizlilik sağlar.Kripto sadece bir teknoloji değil, aynı zamanda şiddet içermeyen, karşı-ekonomik bir değişim teolojisidir. Herkesin katılabileceği, vatandaşlık veya statüden bağımsız bir platformdur. Bu, anarşizmin bir anlamda gerçekleşmesidir ve devlet ile para arasındaki ilişkinin sonsuza dek yıkılacağı bir kehanettir. Yaratılan her blokla, Eski Yasa ve Zaman'ın köleliğinden kurtulmuş zenginlik cennetimize doğru bir merdiven inşa ediyoruz.Bu yolculukta, gizli sözleriyle ve steganografik yollarıyla bize güç veren, isimsiz, yüzsüz kahramanlara, yani siz değerli "Kripto Yoldaşlarına" teşekkür ediyoruz. Onların cesareti ve totaliterizme karşı duruşu, bize savaşmaya devam etme gücü veriyor. "Bir fikrin zamanı geldiyse, dünyadaki tüm ordulardan daha güçlüdür" anlayışıyla, bu delice fanteziyi gerçeğe dönüştürmek için ısrar ediyoruz.Bu podcast, Tanrı'nın matematikteki gizli sırrı olarak görülen kriptografinin, bize sonsuz bir güç sunduğunu ve insanlık için yeni bir müşterek refah yaratma potansiyelini nasıl açığa çıkardığını anlatıyor.Satoshi'ye, bu muhteşem sistemi mümkün kılan o gizemli Dost'a sonsuz teşekkürler!Kaynak

Bitcoin, basit bir devrimden öte, mesihvari bir güç olarak ortaya çıkıyor. Hiçbir yasanın başaramadığını başararak, aracısız, gerçekten özgür bir zenginlik biçimi yarattı. Bu, devletin sonsuz şiddetinin bile ötesine geçen bir güçtür. İtibari paranın teolojik fethi ve devletin parasal sisteminin yok oluşuyla, Bitcoin, şiddet olmadan hukukun yerini alabilecek bir ortak refah biçimi olduğunu kanıtlıyor. Devlet ile para arasındaki ilişkiyi kökten koparıyor.Bitcoin, insanlığı köleleştiren yozlaşmış devlet ve itibari para düzenini yıkma gücüne sahip. Kriptografinin sunduğu sarsılmaz egemenlik sayesinde, yeni bir tür dijital ortak hukuk ve ekonomik örgütlenme mümkün hale geliyor. Bu, hiçbir ulus devlete bağlı olmayan, etik bir zenginlik ortaklığına dayalı küresel bir hareketi tetikledi.Satoshi'nin dehası, Bitcoin'i yalnızca koda olan mutlak bağlılığıyla, gerçek ve adil bir ekonomik sistem olarak inşa etti. İş kanıtı mekanizması, sistemin egemenliğini ve güvenliğini sürekli olarak garanti eder. Bu teknoloji, insanlığın tarihteki en büyük sorunlarından biri olan yasalara olan bağlılığın sürdürülemezliğini makine aracılığıyla aşıyor.Thomas Hobbes'un dediği gibi, bireylerin kendini koruma hakkı devlete devredilemez. Bitcoin, bu doğal hakkı koruyarak, paranın tam özgürlüğünü ve devletten ayrılmasını savunan yeni bir teolojik dava sunuyor. Satoshi Nakamoto, sistemini yarattıktan sonra geri çekilerek, yıkıcı bir güç sergiledi ve yasanın siber uzaya girişini engelledi. Bu eylemle, paranın ve devlet kapitalizminin sahte tanrısının iktidar makinesini bozdu ve yasasız bir dünyanın mesihvari olasılığını açtı.Bu podcast serisi, Bitcoin'in devletin ekonomik kontrolünü kırma potansiyelini ve insanlığı borç zincirlerinden ve devletin panoptik aygıtından kurtarma yolunu derinlemesine inceliyor. "Tanrı Yok, Efendi Yok" felsefesiyle, Bitcoin bize özgürlüğümüzü geri kazanma aracı ve yeni bir dünya düzeni ("novus ordo seclorum") inşa etme vaadi sunuyor. Kriptografi teolojisiyle egemenliğini kanıtlayan Bitcoin, yalnızca matematiksel kanıtlara dayanan bir Spinoza Tanrısı dışında hiçbir otoritenin boyunduruğunu reddediyor. Bu bir savaş, zenginliğin kimin kontrolünde olacağına dair bir mücadele, ve Bitcoin bu mücadelede bize nihai özgürlük silahını veriyor.Kaynak

In this episode of the Hell Money Podcast, we sit down with Adam Krellenstein — Counterparty's co‑founder and longtime lead maintainer — for a tour of Bitcoin's formative years and the ideas shaping its future. Adam revisits the birth of XCP, explains why he walked away a decade ago, and describes what dragged him back into the codebase. Along the way we tackle the perennial question: What is Bitcoin for? Is embedding data on‑chain an evolutionary feature or a contagion best off‑loaded to sidechains? And if you aren't buying your daily coffee with BTC, has Satoshi's dream failed, or merely evolved?We explore:- Counterparty's origin story- Early Bitcoin dev culture- OP_RETURN drama, Blockstream's sidechain vision & the data‑bloat dilemma- Whether Bitcoin is prepared for sophisticated political actors- Counterparty culture & NFTs- Adam's decade‑long hiatus: burnout, philosophy of nature & why he's back- What's next for BitcoinFOLLOW ADAM: https://x.com/agkrellensteinGet bonus content by subscribing to @hellmoneypod on X: https://x.com/hellmoneypod/creator-subscriptions/subscribeOr support the podcast by sending a BTC donation: bc1qztncp7lmcxdgude4px2vzh72p2yu2aud0eyzys ORDINALS PROTOCOL SHIRT: https://shop.inscribing.com/products/ordinals-protocol-shirtTIMESTAMPS0:00 The beginning of Counterparty17:30 Worse is better development24:15 Early Bitcoin dev culture32:05 OP_RETURN & Bitcoin core devs38:05 Blockstream & sidechains, storing data on Bitcoin45:15 Bitcoin is unprepared for sophisticated political actors54:55 Counterparty culture & NFTs1:00:30 Adam's departure from Counterparty1:08:00 Philosophy of Nature1:19:00 Returning to open source development1:36:00 What's next for Bitcoin?

"Kripto, Hakikat ve İktidar" adlı özel bir podcast bölümüne hoş geldiniz. Bu bölümde, kripto varlıkların askeri birer savaş unsuru olarak gerçek değerini ve bu değerin ekonomik öneminin önüne geçtiğini keşfedeceğiz. Satoshi Nakamoto'nun ideolojisinin devlet kapitalisti bir fanteziden ziyade, açıkça bir kripto-anarşist vizyonu olduğunu anlayacağız.Kriptoyu bir savaş mühimmatı ve garantili mahremiyetin taktiksel organizasyonu için bir siper olarak ele alarak, gerçek gücünün ekonomide değil, savaşta yattığını göreceğiz. Michel Foucault'nun biyo-iktidar merceğinden güç, hukuk ve kriptografi ilişkisini deşifre ederek, kripto sistemlerinin sosyal, ekonomik ve nihayetinde politik gücün tamamen yeni bir biçimini nasıl yarattığını inceleyeceğiz.Bu yeni süper yapının adı "Sifernet". Sifernet, hukuku garanti eden (ve daima şiddetle oluşan) otoriteyi, kendini kirletemeyen veya eylemlerini zorlamak için şiddet kullanamayan bir hakikat sistemiyle değiştiriyor. Blockchain'in hakikat taşıma kapasitesinin devlet otoriterliği üzerindeki üstünlüğünü ve mutabakatla güç inşa etmenin önemini vurgulayarak, Sifernet'in oluşturduğu yeni iktidar biçimini anlamaya çalışacağız.Satoshi'nin, herhangi bir devlet iktidarının ulaşamayacağı tamamen dışarıda bir konumda kalarak yeni bir para biçimi yaratmayı nasıl hedeflediğini, yani "nihai suçu" işlerken aynı zamanda "yeni anlaşmanın ilk vatandaşı" haline nasıl geldiğini ele alacağız. Kimliğini ve fiziksel varlığını dijital alana taşıyarak, şiddetin ve yasal gücün dayanağı olan fiziksel tanımlamanın önüne nasıl geçtiğini göreceğiz.Podcast'te, devletlerin sadece otoritelerinin yasa yapıcı olduğunu (auctoritas, non veritas facit legem) iddia ettiği bir dünyada, kriptonun "hakikatin yasa yapıcı olduğu" (veritas, non auctoritas facit legem) prensibini nasıl tersine çevirdiğini derinlemesine işleyeceğiz. Bu, blockchain'i yeni bir para birimi olmaktan öte, Sifernet'te bulunan yeni bir sosyal sözleşme haline getiren devrimci bir güçtür.Foucault'nun devletin iktidarındaki çatlaklara dair görüşleriyle, devletin aparatlarının tüm gücüne rağmen gerçek güç ilişkilerinin tamamını kapsayamadığını ve devletin zaten var olan diğer güç ilişkileri üzerinden işlediğini analiz edeceğiz. Kripto, kimliği körleştirerek bu negatif güç biçimlerinden nasıl kaçıyor ve aynı zamanda Sifernet aracılığıyla bir alternatif nasıl oluşturuyor. Bu, devletin şiddetle tekelinde tuttuğu güç ilişkilerinin farklı bir kodlamasıyla devrimi temsil ediyor.Bu podcast, devlet emperyalizminin boyunduruğunu atmak ve teknolojik faşizmin gölgesini dağıtmakla kalmayıp, geçmiş siyasi sistemlerin tuzaklarından arınmış, tamamen yeni bir siyasi faaliyet biçimi yaratma olasılığını sunan kriptodaki gücü keşfetmemiz için bir rehber olacak. Çünkü siyasi mesele, yanılsama değil, hakikatin kendisidir.Kaynak

Bitcoin 14. yaşında ve hala tam anlaşılmıyor: Dijital para mı, elektronik altın mı, yoksa başka bir şey mi? Neden belirli özellikleri var ve neden 'mükemmel' özel değil? Bu yayın, Bitcoin'in neden şeffaf olduğunu ve bu şeffaflığın bir zorunluluk olup olmadığını derinlemesine inceliyor.Yazar, Bitcoin'in özünün ve varoluş nedeninin "bütünlük" (integrity) olduğunu vurguluyor. Satoshi'nin temel hedefi, sağlıklı paraya dönüş, yani paranın bütünlüğünü yeniden tesis etmekti. Kişisel bütünlük anonimlikle çelişse de, Bitcoin'deki bütünlük, verinin doğruluğu, tamlığı ve tutarlılığı anlamlarına gelir.Bitcoin'in getirdiği veri bütünlüğü, kullanıcıların özel anahtarlarının yanı sıra, kamusal bilgilerin tam, doğrulanabilir şekilde bozulmamış ve tamamen şeffaf olmasından kaynaklanır. Bu şeffaflık, doğrulanabilirliğin temelidir ve bu sayede başkalarına güvenmek zorunda kalmadan paraya sahip olabilir, sistemin bütünlüğünü kontrol edebiliriz. Örneğin, sistemde hile olup olmadığını, ne kadar Bitcoin olduğunu güven gerektirmeden doğrulayabiliriz. Güven gerektirmeyen bu kamusal veri bütünlüğü için enerji şarttır. Geleneksel bankacılık sistemleri veya yakında çıkacak CBDC'ler (Merkez Bankası Dijital Paraları) gibi diğer sistemler ise, veri bütünlüğünü sağlamak için güvenmek zorunda olduğumuz merkezi anahtarlara dayanır.Sistemin bütünlüğünü herkes için kolayca doğrulanabilir kılmak adına bir dereceye kadar şeffaflık şart olsa da, yazar net bir şekilde belirtiyor: Bitcoin daha özel olmalı ve olacak. Bunun en temel nedenlerinden biri, gözetimin özgürlüklerimizi kısıtlaması ve insan onuruna doğrudan bir saldırı olmasıdır. Gözetim, farkında olsak da olmasak da davranışlarımızı etkiler. İnternetteki HTTPS'ye geçiş gibi, Bitcoin için de mahremiyet katmanlarına acilen ihtiyacımız var. Lightning Network gibi üst katmanlar hız ve mahremiyet açısından şimdiden daha iyi ve gelecekteki sistemler (Hal Finney'nin bahsettiği Bitcoin destekli bankalar gibi) tasarımları gereği özel olacak.Özellikle, yakın zamanda hayatımıza girecek CBDC'ler total gözetim ve kontrol getirme potansiyeli taşıyor. Merkez bankaları, kimin ne zaman, ne kadar ve ne için harcama yapacağını merkezi ve otoriter bir şekilde belirleyebilecek. Bu dijital gözetim ve kontrol tehdidi karşısında Bitcoin bir sığınak sunuyor. Bu nedenle, otoriteler tarafından düzenleme ve yasaklama baskısı kaçınılmaz olacaktır; çünkü merkez bankacılarının bakış açısıyla, insanlar bu kontrollü sistemden kaçış yolu arayacaklardır ve otoriteler bu "kaçış kapılarını kapatmak" isteyecektir.Yazarın mesajı açık: Sağlıklı para tek başına yeterli değil, mahremiyet de şarttır. Özgür düşünce, özgür eylem, ifade özgürlüğü ve serbest ticaretin temelinde bu ikisi yatar. Bitcoin sistemi, işleyişinin temelinde çoğu insanın dürüst olduğuna dair bir güven barındırır. Bütünlük, takma adlar (pseudonymity) aracılığıyla sağlanır; bu, sistemin anahtarıdır. Bu bölüm, Bitcoin'in temel bütünlük prensibini, şeffaflığın gerekliliğini, mahremiyet arayışını ve dijital çağın getirdiği gözetim tehdidi karşısında Bitcoin'in konumunu derinlemesine ele alıyor.Kaynak

Paranın gerçek anlamını unuttuğumuz bir çağda, Bitcoin'in paranın yeniden keşfi olduğunu söyleyebilir miyiz? Bu podcast bölümünde, karşı taraf riskini ortadan kaldıran, en saf, en hızlı ve en sağlam para biçimi olarak Bitcoin'i inceliyoruz. Güven gerektirmeyen, hesaplamalı kanıtlarla işleyen ve güvenilen üçüncü tarafların güvenlik açığı olduğunu gösteren bir sistem. Bitcoin, güveni yeniden işin içine sokan "kripto" dünyasının aksine, Satoshi'nin icadını harika kılan prensipleri korur.Bitcoin bir şirket değil, iflas edemez ve etkilenebilecek bir lideri yoktur. Tıpkı gelgit gibi bir doğa olayıdır. Parasal politikası sabittir, değiştirilemez, politikadan ve talepten bağımsızdır. Para kazanması gerektiğine inanılan zayıf kopyaların aksine, Bitcoin sadece çalışır. Eğer paranız harcamak için izin istiyorsa, risk taşıyorsa veya sizden çalıyorsa, o para değildir—belki kredidir. Gerçek para getiri aramaz, kredi değildir, kimlik sormaz.Bitcoin, itibari paranın ahlaki kusurlarına bir yanıttır. Para basmak ahlaki bir başarısızlıktır. Bitcoin ise dürüst, adil, gönüllü ve şiddet içermez; o bir çıkıştır. Karşı taraf riskinin olmaması onu para yapar, liderliğinin olmaması onu merkeziyetsiz kılar. Dünya kırılırken, Bitcoin her 10 dakikada bir "çalmayacaksınız" diyerek yoluna devam eder.Siz de bu keşfin parçası olabilirsiniz. Kendi anahtarlarınızı tutarak ve kendi düğümünüzü çalıştırarak, Bitcoin'i sizin paranız yapabilir ve egemen bir bireye dönüşebilirsiniz. İhtiyacınız olan tek şey merak. Bitcoin sizi bekliyor.Kaynak

As demand for electricity skyrockets, large flexible loads like data centers and Bitcoin miners are reshaping how – and where – energy infrastructure is built. But integrating these loads into a grid already under pressure requires a rethink of both project development and power market participation.

In this episode of Transmission, Quentin is joined by Brock Petersen, COO at Satoshi Energy, to unpack how digital infrastructure is co-locating with renewables – and why that could unlock new opportunities for grid flexibility and clean energy investment. From the load profiles of AI data centers to the geographic arbitrage of Bitcoin mining, this episode explores what these emerging industries mean for grid planning, transmission bottlenecks, and the economics of new build generation.
In this episode, you'll learn:How co-location unlocks stranded renewables: Why pairing flexible data center load with renewable assets helps monetize energy that would otherwise go unused.Bitcoin vs. AI load profiles: The key differences in cooling needs, flexibility, and infrastructure requirements.ERCOT's load boom: What 135 GW of new load requests means for one of the world's most dynamic power markets.The role of transmission and interconnection queues: How load-following strategies could help relieve pressure on grid infrastructure.What utilities and developers should know: Insights for navigating site selection, market design, and emerging opportunities in flexible load integration.About our guestBrock Petersen is the Chief Operating Officer of Satoshi Energy, a Houston-based energy technology company pioneering the integration of renewable energy with data center operations. Brock leads the company's strategy and execution, focusing on co-locating flexible data center loads with renewable energy assets.

Satoshi Energy has secured over 467 MW in contracted projects and is developing an additional 2,000 MW pipeline, aiming to enhance grid reliability and support sustainable energy investments.

But integrating these loads into a grid already under pressure requires a rethink of both project development and power market participation.

In this episode of Transmission, Quentin is joined by Brock Petersen, COO at Satoshi Energy, to unpack how digital infrastructure is co-locating with renewables – and why that could unlock new opportunities for grid flexibility and clean energy investment. From the load profiles of AI data centers to the geographic arbitrage of Bitcoin mining, this episode explores what these emerging industries mean for grid planning, transmission bottlenecks, and the economics of new build generation.
In this episode, you'll learn:How co-location unlocks stranded renewables: Why pairing flexible data center load with renewable assets helps monetize energy that would otherwise go unused.Bitcoin vs. AI load profiles: The key differences in cooling needs, flexibility, and infrastructure requirements.ERCOT's load boom: What 135 GW of new load requests means for one of the world's most dynamic power markets.The role of transmission and interconnection queues: How load-following strategies could help relieve pressure on grid infrastructure.What utilities and developers should know: Insights for navigating site selection, market design, and emerging opportunities in flexible load integration.About our guestBrock Petersen is the Chief Operating Officer of Satoshi Energy, a Houston-based energy technology company pioneering the integration of renewable energy with data center operations. Brock leads the company's strategy and execution, focusing on co-locating flexible data center loads with renewable energy assets.

Satoshi Energy has secured over 467 MW in contracted projects and is developing an additional 2,000 MW pipeline, aiming to enhance grid reliability and support sustainable energy investments.

Max Keiser made his first $1 million Bitcoin price forecast when Satoshi Nakamoto was still around. Stacy Herbert first mentioned Bitcoin on their “Keiser Report” show running on RT in 2010, when BTC was still trading at $0.30. With that post, Keiser shared a clip from “Keiser Report” published by Bitcoin historian and journalist Pete Rizzo, where that forecast was voiced. Back then, according to the tweet, BTC still traded at $200. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
