The best presentations from the Bitcoin 2021 conference. |
 |
Tens of thousands of bitcoiners took Miami by storm last week for what was possibly the largest Bitcoin conference ever. Some of Bitcoin’s best spokespersons took the mainstage, including representatives from top Bitcoin mining firms like Poolin, Galaxy Digital and Compass Mining.
Here are the Compass team’s top four picks for the best talks at the conference.
1. Mining as a Public Company: For a panel of hot takes on ESG and Bitcoin mining, watch CEOs of several publicly traded mining companies talk about the industry with Kevin O’Leary. Hive CEO Frank Holmes, Riot CEO Jason Les, and Marathon CEO Fred Thiel discuss the business dynamics of public mining companies and the emergence of environmental concerns from mining. (Watch on Compass)
2. How Bitcoin Can Stimulate the Green Energy Transition
: The debate over what energy sources bitcoin miners use is more heated than ever. Some bitcoin advocates claim that the development of cheap renewable energy is incentivized by bitcoin mining. Steve Lee of Square and Aaron van Wirdum of Bitcoin Magazine sit down to discuss this idea. (Watch on Compass)
