They cover Adam’s jump from high finance to Bitcoin mining. Swick reveals why proof of work and interruptible load rewires the power grid, not just finance. They break down Bitcoin mining as the buyer of last resort for stranded energy, like filling every empty airline seat. AI data centers enter as a rival with different rules: uptime, fiber, and capex.RELAI DISCLAIMERRelai sponsors this show/podcast and is authorized to provide crypto-asset services in Switzerland and across the European Union under the MiCA regulatory framework with its license issued by the French regulator, AMF (License No: A2025-006).
