あらすじ・解説
In this exciting episode, host Trevor Bello sits down with Nico, a passionate bitcoin miner who has ingeniously built a hydronic integrated heat system to heat his home using the excess heat generated from his bitcoin mining operations. Join us as we dive deep into Nico's journey into the world of bitcoin, starting from his early days of mining with a USB miner to creating a custom immersion cooling system. We explore the technical aspects of his hydronic heating setup, including how he transformed his oil-based heating system into an efficient electric immersion system that not only heats his home but also allows him to mine bitcoin profitably. In this episode, you'll learn about: The basics of hydronic heating systems and how they work. The integration of bitcoin mining with home heating. The challenges and triumphs of building a custom heat system. Insights into the current state of bitcoin mining and the importance of small-scale miners. Nico's thoughts on the future of bitcoin and the impact of the network on everyday life. Whether you're a seasoned miner or just starting your bitcoin journey, this episode is packed with valuable insights and inspiration. Don't forget to check out Nico's GitHub repository for detailed information on his system!
