0:00.0 | So, freaks, it's your Uncle Marty here to introduce this episode of Tales from the Crips. |
0:05.8 | Any immense pleasure of sitting down with a man by the name of Marshall Holbrook. |
0:09.4 | I'm sure a lot of you bitcoiners don't know too much about Marshall, |
0:12.9 | but he's doing some incredible stuff and has been doing some incredible stuff for some time now. |
0:17.6 | He is paving the way for mining Bitcoin with natural gas. And I'm not talking |
0:23.9 | about what we're doing at Gam with using waste gas to mine Bitcoin on oil fields. He's doing |
0:30.2 | something pretty similar, but also very different, where he's actually finding land that has |
0:36.0 | pre-existing natural gas pipelines in it, |
0:40.4 | like little things that shoot out of the ground, nothing too crazy. |
0:43.5 | They produce some gas that could be sent to the grid or simply just not used at all. |
0:50.9 | And he has been building Bitcoin mining operations using these natural gas wells for five |
0:59.1 | years now since 2015 he started by experimenting because gas prices were getting too low and selling |
1:06.5 | it to the grid was was not making any sense especially considering all the kickbacks that come into play |
1:11.5 | throughout the whole process. And so he started mining Bitcoin and found out that it was pretty |
1:19.5 | profitable to the point where he solely mines Bitcoin using these natural gas wells. I'm not going to |
1:26.3 | ruin the story for you. He does a much better job at |
1:29.1 | explaining what he's doing, much more eloquent and more invigorating. So definitely check it out. |
1:35.5 | Listen to the whole episode, some very exciting stuff going on. There's so much opportunity |
1:39.6 | in the world of Bitcoin mining. Marshall is doing, and again, has been doing some incredible stuff. I think you |
1:46.1 | guys are really going to like this episode. It's really going to blow your mind at the opportunities |
1:50.3 | that exist out there. This episode of Tales from the Crypt is brought to you by our good friends |
1:54.0 | at the Cash App. You freaks already know all about them. They're helping us stack sats. |
