This episode dives into a surprising yet powerful shift: energy companies getting into tech, and tech companies tackling energy. With Chuck Yates and insights from Digital Wildcatters, we explore how Bitcoin mining is bridging this gap. Imagine EQT, the biggest natural gas producer in the U.S., choosing to scale back production due to low prices but seeing an opportunity to redirect that energy towards Bitcoin mining. Or AWS acquiring a data center for $650 million, showing how tech is all-in on energy management. Bitcoin mining has gone from niche to essential, offering solutions for flare gas and maximizing energy use. We discuss the push for high-performance computing and what it means for energy companies to adapt to this tech-driven demand—everything from infrastructure and compliance to turning Bitcoin mining into a strategic asset. This episode shows how energy and tech are reshaping each other, with big gains in innovation, sustainability, and profit potential.
