Bitcoin is The Real Occupy Wall Street with Kent Halliburton

In this episode, Brad is joined by Kent Halliburton, the COO of Sazmining — a company that promotes Bitcoin mining using renewable energy technologies. Sazmining is one of several emerging green Bitcoin mining companies looking to flip the narrative in an industry often vilified for its ridiculous energy consumption.

As he tells Brad, Kent formerly worked in solar energy and has parlayed his experience and knowledge to help run Sazmining. But how did he even get into Bitcoin? In this sit-down, he shares the many nuggets of insight he has gained in his active years in the space.

Tune in to hear him and Brad talk about the company, how money printing is counterintuitive, how they navigate Bitcoin conversations at home, and more!
