    Matt - What's it Like to be a Miner and the Mining Philosophy Sep 28, 2021

    What do you need to know to mine Bitcoin? Is garage mining profitable? Join host Kathleen Jobin and guest, Bitcoin miner Matt as they discuss everything from what you can expect in terms of power usage to if using an ‘on/off’ model can be profitable.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Matt was using 30 or 40 kilowatts in his garage to mine bitcoin (500 KW/half-MW could be consumption of anywhere between 100-200 homes), now he’s moved into an industrial unit he uses up to half a megawatt of power.
    • There's unused capacity from the grid which are built keeping in mind peaks and valleys, but they're built handle peaks so most of the time the grid has excess capacity. Bitcoin mining is a 24/7 operation so you're ideally using non-stop flat load of consumption. And most utilities want load to offset their fixed costs at least.
    • Matt got into Bitcoin through mining. The first Bitcoin he had was the Bitcoin he mined. He started out with homegrown GPU miners using graphics card in making a custom computer, not Bitcoin (because there were already ASICs) but Ethereum, but he was mining on a platform which paid in Bitcoin. So you mined Ethereum etc but got paid in Bitcoin.
    • Matt’s recommendation is that if you’re into your tech then you should dip your toe and try out mining. Learning mining works best if you're actually doing it. You can find older generation machines at good prices and can make a little money out of them.
    • If you look at any website that shows profitability of miners, that shows profitability right now today if you have the miners with you but it doesn't compare with long term factors like mining difficulty or the price of Bitcoin. The profitability changes dynamically everyday every second. And generally, that profitability gets lesser over time because the difficulty gets harder.
    • Home miner's are not going to get competitive rates. But when profitability is high, like really now, it doesn't matter much, you will still make some.
    • When things get really bad in bear markets, you see dips in hash rate as the least profitable miners drop out. In the early day, when Matt was mining from home, he was finding it barely profitable, and was earning about enough to pay the power bill.
    • If you think long term, you can scoop up a bunch of machines for cheap during a bear market. Mining is very opportunistic, very flexible, it's a type of business that uses electricity in a way that is very unique.
    • Matt firmly believes Proof of Stake and other alternatives cannot work with the same vision (of Proof of Work to achieve global free permissionless digital money). Mining is designed in such a way that it creates a backbone that secures immutability of the blockchain and its transactions and scarcity. Just like gold is hard to mine as it takes real world resources to create is what makes it scarce.
    • Matt's mantra is to mine and hold and sell only for the sake of paying power bills and so on.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘Believing mining is a get rich quick scheme is a mistake’

    'If you're looking at all I care about is making money in the simplest way, then just buy Bitcoin'

    'Bitcoin is a free sovereign monetary asset that is free of governments'

    'Bitcoin mining is not a lottery, it’s a type of math problem that you can only solve by making guesses’

    ‘Cryptography is its own rabbit hole’

    'You do not get something for nothing'

    'The only thing that a miner should buy with bitcoin is more mining machines'

    'If anything Bitcoin is, it is also freedom of expression'

    Bitcoin Gandalf - Rising Through the Ranks in Bitcoin Twitter Sep 21, 2021

    Join host Kathleen Jobin and guest, Bitcoin Gandalf on this week’s episode of Never Too Late To Bitcoin. People don’t just find out about Bitcoin overnight and become experts, listen in to hear Bitcoin Gandalf’s journey and find out what advice he has to give.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Bitcoin Gandalf got his job in marketing at a Bitcoin company through Twitter after working in property.
    • Michael Saylor's talks really helped orange pill Gandalf.
    • The Bitcoin network is as good as it can be, so there’s little chance of it becoming the Myspace of the coin industry. Myspace failed because it didn't catch the mobile wave. Facebook did that well and so it caught on. But when we think about what we want from a monetary network and a store of value asset, Bitcoin already does that well. For something to come along and take Bitcoin's market share, it will have to be a 10x improvement. Bitcoin does it's specific thing super well, it does not need to do anything else.
    • Gandalf sold every stock and bought Bitcoin and so did his mother, who liquidated her brokerage account in 3-weeks in late 2020.
    • "Ledger is the easiest way to convert boomers to cold storage but not sure my mom is ready for Coldcard" - Kathleen
    • If you want to understand Bitcoin you need to understand the context behind the principles of the idea. When you look for the context, it's when you start understanding Bitcoin.
    • Money is just your time being stored up in an account. Inflation takes time that you’ve already stored up away.
    • Devaluing currency is a great incentive to remain productive and keep people working and provide services. In a deflationary world, you don't need to be more productive in exchange for money... you will instead be more creative or will be freed up to create some amazing things and have more joy in your life because you'll be doing something you want to do and not because you have to to keep up with inflation.
    • Gandalf shares content not to orange pill, but because he enjoys it but if somebody else enjoys it then that's great. He doesn't aim to change people's mind.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘There are so many Bitcoin stories that start with someone being in quarantine’

    'Bitcoin is a monetary network with a native currency'

    ‘Bitcoin is like a table, it does a specific thing super well’

    'Money is a technology. It's a human invention that allows us to exchange value'

    'There's no room to make any substantial improvement that would destroy the network effect that Bitcoin already has such that everyone suddenly moves somewhere else'

    ‘Come for the greed, stay for the revolution. Greed gets you in, and then you learn’

    'If you diversify you don't win at anything'

    'If you do the same thing as everyone else then you will end up like everyone else. You wanna end up like everyone else? I don't'

    Jimmy Voyer - A Journey of Discovering Sound Money from Bitcoin to Gold and back to Bitcoin Sep 21, 2021

    Join host Kathleen Jobin and guest, Jimmy Voyer, Bitcoin and gold investor on this week’s episode of Never Too Late To Bitcoin. Hear all about why Jimmy Voyer invested in both gold and bitcoin at the same time. Also, join the discussion on how financial history can hold the key to what the future will look like and weather you should trust exchanges holding large numbers of Bitcoins.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Jimmy believes that we need to look at the history of money and observe the shifts in empires. By looking at this you see that when the gold reserves depleted, then the empire fell. So, to keep our current empire going we need a sustainable source of currency.
    • Jimmy realized the fiat financial system is a total scam and we needed an exit from that scam and so gold and Bitcoin were the answer.
    • Jimmy started buying Bitcoin just before the 2017 bull run but kept accumulating since the time it was $1,500. Along with Bitcoin, he discovered Bitcoin so he diversified with Gold trusting its 5,000 year history. He has since come around to think that Bitcoin is much safer than he originally thought and sold his gold.
    • Jimmy actually invested in gold at the same time he invested in Bitcoin. Originally, he wasn’t sure about the safety of Bitcoin and saw gold as another safe investment that’s been around for over 5000 years.
    • With Bitcoin you need to own your key. Jimmy would never trust a third party with his Bitcoin.
    • When people say "Gold has intrinsic value", it is unimportant because it doesn't matter whether money has intrinsic value because the main goal of money is to exchange and store value for use in future. So if Bitcoin will eat up Gold's monetary premium, your electronics get better and better.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘Don’t be in a honeypot, own your own keys’

    'Be responsible for your own money. Don't let others decide that for you'

    ‘Bitcoin is the fastest growing money network in history’

    'Money is a way to barter with something that lasts through time'

    'Privacy and hidden are synonyms but they are not'

    Babel Hodl - A Pleb's Journey to Discovering Bitcoin Sep 21, 2021

    Join host Kathleen Jobin and this week's guest, who goes by the online name Babel Was An Inside Job, a fellow Bitcoin Twitter pleb. How was Babel orange pilled? Where does he get his convictions from? And what was his journey down the rabbit hole?

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Because he had an hour or so of intense time with them, Babel would ask patients about anything including Bitcoin
    • Low time preference is working hard now for a payoff later. It is about putting in the work and understanding that things you put a lot of time into will in general be better than the things we rush to build.
    • Babel see’s Bitcoin as the digital gold made by the millennial generation.
    • When you say you can't buy the network we have, is because I and my neighbour and El Salvadorians run their nodes.
    • The network that made Bitcoin secure couldn't be re-created for anywhere near the original cost, that’s why other coins haven't been able to catch up.
    • Bitcoin is protection against inflation. And it’s available to everyone. Bitcoin is the most secure network in the world. You put your value in it for yourself and your kids and it is safe.
    • Every single thing that any other coin can do, it's something that Bitcoin can do. They're just highlighting it and pushing it to the front to make it look sexy until when the bear market hits.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘The more value I provide to someone, the more value I get’

    'Bitcoin incentivizes providing real value to the society'

    'Buy nice not twice’

    'If you want to recreate Bitcoin, you couldn't'

    'Bitcoin survives, everything else doesn't'

    'Bitcoin knows what it wants to be. The rest of us just have to learn about it'

    Jennifer Fountain - Learning Bitcoin Through Conversations With my Sister Sep 21, 2021

    Are you going to take the orange pill? Join host Kathleen Jobin and this week's guest, Kathleen’s sister, Jennifer Fountain, on the first ever episode of Never Too Late To Bitcoin. Find out all about Kathleen and Jen’s journey to Bitcoin. Join the discussions on what is money and the process of learning all about Bitcoin.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • It is never too late to Bitcoin. Most people don’t buy Bitcoin as soon as they hear about it, it takes time to do the research and discover the knowledge of what it actually is.
    • Understanding final settlements is a way of differentiating e-transfers from digital money
    • Money is a technology that humans have put in place and it’s constantly evolving. It's a technology to solve the trade problem. We don’t still use Roman gold coins today. It’s always changing as we develop.
    • What is money? It has to be durable, portable, divisible, uniform, acceptable, and there has to be a limited supply. When the currency stops fulfilling these criteria we move in to the next thing.
    • Cost of government programs actually hinder people lot more than the help they intend to provide. Because they need to print money to pay for those programs as a result of which everything becomes more expensive

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘Bitcoin needs to come into your life at least 3 times before you decide you buy it’

    ‘Bitcoin is protected by a decentralized network of nodes and secured by miners that need to do Proof of Work.’

    ‘In our current system we savor debt’
