Rob W is the co-founder and partner at Distributed Hash, and business development lead for Upstream Data.

In this episode, we talk about how "bitcoin miners are dung beetles", referring to his recent 3 minute monologue at the Adams County Commissioner hearing in Colorado, on banning bitcoin mining with flared natural gas.

We also discuss running large-scale ASIC performance and heat tests, differences in Whatsminer vs Antminer machines, our favorite bitcoin educators, green-energy narratives and the oil & gas industry, and more!
