In this episode of Drilling into Crypto, Mohamed El-Masri sits down with Owen Vaughan, Founder of Bitroots.io, to explore how Bitcoin mining can evolve into a sustainable engine for economic inclusion, become a global ESG policy, and a contributor to alleviating energy poverty.

In this episode, we explore how using blockchain-based ESG certification technology can transform Bitcoin Mining into a sustainable practice that boosts energy access, reduces waste, and empowers underserved communities—turning mining from an extractive model into a force that alleviates energy poverty.

We dig into why current energy systems often create “energy colonialism” and how decentralized Bitcoin mining could flip the script by monetizing stranded power and creating local financial opportunity. This is a forward-looking conversation on how Bitcoin’s proof-of-work can be part of a more equitable energy future—not at odds with sustainability, but in service of it.
