Today I brought on JP Baric to discuss all things Bitcoin mining including how to maintain a competitive position in the extremely ruthless bitcoin mining space. JP shares how he built his social media empire where he built up a following of over 500k with 40 million+ views. JP also shares how he is developing a new product that will allow the average person to start mining for as little as $100. Lastly, we discuss JP his views on the energy use of Bitcoin and whether Bitcoin mining will have a negative or positive impact on the environment.
