THE MINING POD: Bitcoin Hashrate ATH, Greenidge Court Case, Unfounded Bitmain Sanctions Scare, and Faketoshi 2.0
Description
Where is all the hashrate coming from? Plus, why Bitmain sanction rumors are (probably) overblown.
Welcome back to The Mining Pod! Bitcoin’s hashrate is ripping, so Will and Colin sit down to discuss where all the new hashrate is coming from. They also touch on updates for Greenidge’s long-standing lawsuit against the State of New York and why the scuttlebutt that Bitmain might come under the scope of US sanctions is unfounded for now. Finally, in this week’s cry corner, why you shouldn’t spend £500 to hear yet another bloviating imposter claim that he’s Satoshi.
