Episode167 - The Rob Warren Interview
This week I had a great interview with Rob Warren. He has been mining bitcoin for a number of years. With a wide range of experience from home mining to working with Riot (one of the largest public miners in the United States) he has a great deal of knowledge about the mining business.
He has recently written the Bitcoin Miner's Almanac (releasing in mid-June). We cover some politics in regards to recent government actions, how Bitcoin mining can vary wildly in scope and purpose as well as a brief trip into philosophy.
