  • Memorable Quotes:

    • “I think that the Bitcoin ETF...It's just lending more credibility to the space, more legitimacy to Bitcoin as an asset class as an institutional grade investment.”
  • “There's all of these mechanisms that allow for the minimization of volatility and the stabilization of the operations of Bitcoin mining business that are going to make it easier and easier to invest larger and larger amounts of capital and be operating on longer and longer time horizons. That is really going to be like we're watching this industry go from the gold panning of the mid 1800s.”
  • “But you fix the money, you fix the incentives, you fix a lot of the things...causing us to go in the direction we're going in...I happen to be in the camp that really believes that Bitcoin has the potential to do that, and therefore I'm deeply hopeful for the future.”
