Bitcoin mining in 2024 is a whole different ballgame, and nobody knows that better than Bitfarms CEO Ben Gagnon. With Bitcoin smashing past $90K, Ben spills the tea on everything from why Pennsylvania is suddenly the hot spot for miners to how institutional money is finally waking up to the potential of this space. He talks about Bitfarms’ big moves into the U.S., the evolution of capital markets, and what it takes to stay ahead in this wild industry. From energy strategies to Trump’s ripple effects and why this bull cycle hits different, Ben doesn’t hold back on what’s really shaping Bitcoin mining right now.
