Video Transcript:

hello there and welcome to the Hash Power Academy your place to learn anything to do with Bitcoin and we’ll start this video with a question why does it seem like everything in society is of a lower quality than it used to be now I don’t want to seem like some Benjamin Button uh old man and young person’s body back in the days sort of conversation but truly like it seems every ever since the 70s something about society and the way we spend money goods services the quality of food you you could throw out an endless list of different things that have degraded declined and shrked in value services design of buildings even for example I’m here in Texas and I’ve noticed that all of the houses a lot of them uh they have these beautiful fronts to the house uh but if you look down the sides it’s made of wood and that’s a building material we’ve used for many years but it just doesn’t last versus other moments in history where a lot of the buildings yes concentrated more so in the cities were built out of stone and materials designed to go through the generations and yes it was more so on a hard money standard and that’s truly where the discussion of this video is going to delve into is what is a Bitcoin society going to look like how will people spend their money will they recklessly throw money in the air or will the rappers of tomorrow be more careful and cautious and help communicate the the considerations of how you spend money in the future because here’s the thing the debt money system of today means that if you go to work and convert your time and energy into dollars or pounds per hour or per year and then you take said time and energy concentrated in this number of pounds euros dollars whatever it is and put it in the bank earn some interest savings yes you’re saving up but if you go to spend it 5 years later it will buy you less inflation yes the price is going up no it’s the value of the money going down it buys you less because the governments can issue more of these units because it’s not constrained to a physical good our money used to be connected to gold and the golden age brought about a period of time where things were built to last the timelessness was truly evident across all manner of society the music the architecture and all these sorts of things and where we go with this is well if we go back to hard money standard what is a Bitcoin society going to look like with money that the units are fixed in supply but the energy and compute to produce it is expanding in the system so repricing the money with a greater purchasing power over time i think the majority of people right now would just think that the idea of Bitcoin got this money that increases in value over time it’s it’s beyond people’s belief systems in today’s world majority of them and we’re going into a world that’s still going to have technological innovation at a rapid pace but the costs don’t change in terms of the body and energy we’re still going to be driving cars the it’s just the the framework’s going to change instead of driving the car yourself you’re going to press a button and some compute and energy is going to take you where you need to go but when it comes to the fundamental perspective that I’ve written here it it comes down to this that if the quality of goods and services remains rubbish why would you spend on it you wouldn’t want to spend your Bitcoin on things that are bad quality because you value the money that right now money is devalued and continually that that erodess at the societal level into all different problems in society there’s 101 podcasters that can go way into detail as to all of the problems of the money but what we’re going to look at is that Bitcoin society so if you have money that’s gaining value over time uh to the psychology level you’re less likely to spend it and what you do spend it on becomes more important because you see that opportunity cost why would I buy one of these brand new homes for young people oh that’s amazing i’d love to buy a massively overpriced home with really poor building quality that doesn’t last decades it lasts a few years before you need to replace something all of these uh cookie cutter mass production of homes designed for young people there’s really bad quality of building material but why has that occurred there’s just endless aspects of this to pick apart but what what I see in the future is people trying to design and coordinate society in a Bitcoin world where the buildings are designed to last multiple generations maybe built out of materials such as stone that’s what I would like and that affordability is going to come from the early people that hold Bitcoin and as they rotate said Bitcoin the medium of exchange phase of what they’re going to spend it on they’re going to spend it on their necessities and necessity is going to become that ever important word along with timelessness so we want goods and services and things to consume that are of good quality not bad we want good clothes and one of them not 10 of them and and that sort of quality over quantity is truly important and the other piece of that in terms of buying cheap things is affordability yes there is a lot of people that um a shirt costing $5 $10 is is important because of the access to that and maybe they can go and go to a job interview with a smart shirt but the quality of material has just grossly declined to the point that uh girls will buy things from these fast fashion online things a dress that they’ll use once made out of this plastic material that messes up hormones another topic there’s so many other cause and effects pro cause and effect problems from having a form of money that loses value over time you’re more likely to spend it that manipulation of consumption creates an accelerated amount of mass production and that’s not to say that Bitcoin creates a world where we slow the economy down absolutely not because here’s the thing what is the value underneath there is an electrical cost aligned to Bitcoin and that continually expands our ability to produce energy if we have a money that can be captured and produced through energy we build out more energy and if we have more energy in society prices come down it’s cheaper to travel it it feeds its way into the system fuels it fuels the system in the other way around while whilst the fiat system literally feeds on the system and extracts if you issue more units that spend other people’s time and energy their work well you’re going to have a society that feels drained and degraded just like today and so if if the script is flipped the paradox goes the other way if if we find ourselves in a society where people feel empowered the time and energy that they do preserve in the money gains more value because it’s self-contained energy is neither created nor destroyed we find ourselves in a world where people are focused on quality spending this money that they actually hold value for on things of necessity why would I let go of my Bitcoin that’s so intrinsically bound to my soul now because here’s the interesting thing if you if you was to pass away just memorizing your seedwords it goes with you and there will be a lot of people that maybe try and just hold their Bitcoin in their minds and if they they pass away with said said keys it reduces the supply even more relative to the amount of infrastructure that’s been built out so it reprices the Bitcoin with even more value and that’s not to say we will lose all the Bitcoin and there’ll always be some form of number of Bitcoin or Satoshi’s in circulation and all of that expansion of energy underneath just gets repriced to a smaller and smaller quantity of units so it reprices all of the energy money in the system at a greater amount of value that people value even more and focus even more on necessity and quality and making sure that the things that they buy last a lot longer it’s a big topic and it needs a lot more exploring but I think that’s enough for this video thank you for listening

Mining VS Buying: The only 2 Options | Bitcoin Education | Hashpower Academy



Which stacks more Bitcoin — Mining or Buying?

I break down both paths. Buying on exchanges means battling spread, exchange, and withdrawal fees to lock BTC in cold storage like Ledger—secure but pricey. Mining lets you earn BTC fee-free through your electric bill, with compliance perks via firms like IREN. From costs to control, discover which path maximizes your sats. Watch now—pick your Bitcoin strategy!

Video Transcript:

hello there and welcome to the Hash Power Academy your place to learn anything to do with Bitcoin and the topic of today’s video is the direct comparison between mining versus buying are you growing your tomatoes or buying it from the shop that’s the key difference and so here with mining versus buying the first thing to understand is the 99.99% of you have probably logged into a platform deposited your fiat currency clicked purchase to buy your Bitcoin suffering a spread and a fee and I’m hoping that you’re withdrawing with another fee and depositing into cold storage to hold your timeless energy money units and preserving your purchasing power for now and forever over time and that’s why I have this orange line here that over time your quantity of Bitcoin doesn’t change if you go and put it in a lending platform or hand it to Michael Sailor for yield that’s your risk to take this key comparison is buy and hold versus say potentially mine and hold so where does mining come into this well mining is the other avenue to acquire one of those 21 million units that if everyone goes and buys all the Bitcoin they can the only thing left is what is available to produce and when that runs out when all the subsidy is gone it’s what Bitcoin is moving and in circulation through payment of fees that’s what is available to be collected and so with mining it boils down to this whatever you spend on mining you have a direct comparison of how much Bitcoin you could be holding the opportunity cost of do I hold this one whole Bitcoin $100,000 or spend it on Bitcoin mining hardware and what’s my goal well if I spent one whole Bitcoin potentially I want to produce more than one whole Bitcoin and effectively what happens with mining is exactly that that you start with purchasing those computers and you have no Bitcoin you didn’t buy any you have an opportunity cost of potentially selling it even to to buy those machines so here’s the thing what happens with mining is it produces the most amount of Bitcoin uh the more efficient the machine is but the younger it is as well relative to other machines so most Bitcoin mining hardware in this diminishing returns environment of how much Bitcoin you can earn per day with the hings coming every four years what happens is you have this very steep curve that slows down and this is possible to outperform your original purchase or just held in in the first place this is possible as an opportunity and what I mean by this is high uptime good computers that that haven’t got all these fee extractions or high electricity rates that there is a certain amount of revenue that you have the ability to capture and what gets taken away from you is how high is your electricity bill how much uptime this could be a theoretical 100% uptime but if you’ve only got 95% uptime and you’ve only lost or it’s going to take longer if your electrical bill is really high or your machines need lots of repairs then you’re continually spending more you’re going to have to keep increasing this rate and so that payback period might take even longer and so one of the key things to understand about mining is that going onto a calculator and understanding the profitability today is not at all anywhere accurate to what it is tomorrow cut it in half that’s what you think the profitability might be but this is the key thing the objective goal on the Bitcoin mining side of things is to accumulate a greater quantity of Bitcoin over time than what you simply could have just purchased all the way back at the beginning and yes there is a lot of miners that regret buying their machines and learning the hard way and they would have accumulated way more Bitcoin by simply holding so where the opportunity to go into the mining side versus just buy it is if you have access to cheap electricity a lot of capital with good operators or hosts or running it yourself or doing it small scale with an energy setup that you’ve already paid for if you’ve got a solar battery setup and excess electricity sitting and and you can read it on your meter that there’s power you’re not using you can sell it back to the grid or sell it to a global monetary network it’s up to you and so the other side of this is well when you buy Bitcoin you’re depositing dollars you’re purchasing that Bitcoin so there’s an exchange rate and a spread so you’re losing some in the process you’re paying a fee most definitely for the services of that exchange and they’re probably going to charge you to withdraw so there’s sort of three fees in that process versus with Bitcoin mining you earn revenue i’m going to draw these in you earn revenue big stack of Bitcoin and the fundamental thesis behind Bitcoin is that it has a cost to produce all right and what this means is a form of money with a cost to produce truly comes into reality through your electrical bill and here’s the thing your profit is what’s left over if you was to sell your Bitcoin to pay the electrical bill but if you’re trying to stack Bitcoin you’re not trying to sell it so pay the electrical bill with dollars and you’re accumulating the Bitcoin you would have sold what I’m trying to say is essentially that the electrical bill is your way of buying Bitcoin without fees suggesting that your bank transfer doesn’t cost you anything so to speak and that’s one thing so mining allows you to do the same experience of buying without fees you’re buying you’re essentially buying Bitcoin by paying the electrical bill dollars and keeping Bitcoin that you’ve already mined that’s one thing so that’s the electrical bill aspect the second thing is that Bitcoin mining hardware has these tax advantages if you buy Bitcoin there’s no tax incentives there but if you buy a physical good like a computer that depreciates over time and eventually breaks and trends to zero but produces potentially a greater quantity of Bitcoin than what you could have spent on it in the first place that is an asset that can be a tax deduction so if you’re looking for tax advantage investing that might be different to say a retail person well the opportunity to mine is also deductions on that inevitable profit that you get on the other end and then on the the payout side of things that experience of either going into a platform to buy your Bitcoin and withdraw it to cold storage with the exchange probably got it getting your know your customer personal information and all the anti-money laundering aspects of things uh it’s a double-edged sword because I believe that more information has been hacked from these centralized collections of information than uh the actual protections that AML and KYC actually offer topic for another video but the point I’m trying to make is you’re your Bitcoin is tracked you are pseudo anonymous but the exchange knows who you are onchain analytics is getting better and better and better when it comes to mining there is this aspect of privacy you could scale it with millions of dollars to the rate of producing your own blocks which is there is no sender address just a receiver freshly issued Bitcoin which means you are producing Bitcoin but you also have Bitcoin which is effectively private a compliance aspect of being able to have Bitcoin that has no transaction history is another benefit if you’re a large financial financial institution you don’t want Bitcoin that’s got this long story from a theft or a hack or something that could affect your ability to use it and impact its fungeability so to speak into the future so buying Bitcoin in in an exchange you’re you’re getting that money that’s uh been through several hands so to speak versus freshly issuing it yourself and so mining has these different sort of benefits but with more risk you’re not buying Bitcoin immediately you’re buying a computer that produces it over time another way I like to refer to Bitcoin mining is is it’s like energy staking the proof of work to proof ofstake comparison being that it’s the energy entering the system versus um existing monetary units in proof of stake being staked against other people’s ability to uh spend and save in the same units and just collecting collecting rents we don’t want to go back to that system we want to go to towards a system where we’re building out energy based infrastructure that is also a monetary system which helps us build out more energy infrastructure which makes energy cheaper in a fixed supply unit so everyone’s getting more purchasing power and so the importance of mining and buying is a duopoly it’s a circular economy but to those that want to step out and just save and live their life buying is one offer but mining offers different other aspects that could be more institutional but there’s there’s opportunities for retail as well that’s the hosted mining aspect of things but the limitations there is you need a financial barrier to to hurdle over that a typical computer is5 to$10,000 and the average person out there in the world does not have five5 to$10,000 the average um and so there’s there’s a few limitations there but the overall gist for this video is that yes mining is an opportunity to accumulate a greater quantity of Bitcoin over time than what you could have purchased in the first place if you have cheap electricity access to computer cheap rate wholesale rate versus a retail price for those computers and the performance your proof of work over time is the revenue minusing the electricity and your uptime and that true reality of where that point is and there are sadly some miners that don’t make their money back or machines break or they burn something down the insurance won’t pay out and they never make their money back and there is a loss that happens that is the brutal game of Bitcoin mining but there you go so thank you for listening i hope you enjoyed and I will see you in the next video goodbye

Video Transcript:

hello there and welcome to the Hash Power Academy your place to learn anything to do with Bitcoin and the topic of today’s video is how your Bitcoin can become soulbound connected to you in a way that’s completely different than any other asset possible that is to say that you can memorize your Bitcoin in your mind why well originally we have very long private keys that if someone could remember a private key well props to them but to the everyday person that’s not really possible it needs to be more refined and simple a better human interface for their relationship with this planetary money of the future and this is where BIP 39 comes in i’m not going to go too much into the particular steps as to how a long private key gets converted into 12 words but it’s the importance of that human interface that a person can memorize said words write said words as a much better way of managing a much larger piece of information that accesses said wallet and and allows you to spend that energy so here’s the thing bip 39 allowing you and empowering you to potentially make that choice to try and memorize your Bitcoin in your mind don’t forget those 12 words well this is where it gets interesting and the dream that the pharaohs could have potentially had to try and do such a thing because historically the pharaohs of Egypt they were buried when they passed away with everything they had all their riches and food and potentially their animals and even slaves as well they were their servants they were buried with everything and they were trying to take it with them to the next place and with Bitcoin you can do that we hope potentially and how could that potentially be possible how could you prove that you could take Bitcoin to the afterlife well interestingly enough there there is uh if you uh I don’t want to say Google it but there is the uh past life regressions aspect of things where there’s these kids that me remember things of a previous life so it truly gets proven that you can take your Bitcoin with you to the next place where the experience of death and life is truly the same part of the cycle that if a child in the future and they have these children that remember things of some previous life past life regressions that one day if a child were to just remember the 12 words of a previous Bitcoin owner from the soul being in a different body and they remembered intrinsically these 12 words and were able to spend the Bitcoin from a previous person’s life that they went to the grave with said Bitcoin that would prove it and that would prove that that yeah that’s a whole rabbit hole but the aspect of being able to preserve said 12 words in your mind I think is quite powerful you can escape war if you try and escape a place that’s collecting resources in every shape or form particularly in money to fund said war effort and people are fleeing that they’re able to preserve their their time their energy their work their money in their mind and escape war write them down generate their private key and spend said time and energy that they preserve so that that that human interface to Bitcoin is very important and it’s going to develop over time and yeah I think that the timeless nature of Bitcoin as well is even more important the Oh sorry i’m still thinking of past life regression now it it Yeah if one day a child remembers or even other people if they remember something of the past and 12 words and it unlocks this large wallet of Bitcoin or even Satoshi’s wallet maybe maybe he memorized a certain way of accessing said Bitcoin and his soul goes into somebody and they remember and unlock a million Bitcoin that would be interesting thank you for listening i hope you enjoy and I will see you in the next video

Video Transcript:

hello there and welcome to the Hash Power Academy your place to learn anything to do with Bitcoin now here’s the thing if you’ve been watching my previous videos you will notice that this is a different whiteboard and this is a different wall this is because I’m in a different country i am in Dallas Texas in the USA for a couple weeks so if there’s any Bitcoin companies or mining companies that would like to show me an interesting mining site or setup I’m all game so here’s the thing this video is just going to be a short and sweet one to get into the nature of understanding the three fundamental commodities of the Bitcoin network electricity hash power and Bitcoin now I have covered this sort of way of explaining things in previous videos but the thing I’m going to sort of emphasize here is this that if you go back in time to Satoshi Nakamoto he consumed electrons produced hashes and produced Bitcoin exactly the same as today but not with the different technologies now we have better mining hardware faster more efficient different cooling systems different cooling system types and all these sorts of things the technology branch of consuming electricity to produce hash rate that is complexifying in its own way into the future the Bitcoin blockchain the hash rate that’s producing it the mining pools and all these sorts of things i haven’t written them all in just keeping the focus on these three commodities and then the Bitcoin that’s produced the output of blocks being added to the chain electrons being uploaded to the internet and the bit that I find the most interesting is this branch as well well that’s where I see the Bitcoin unit of account branch that the electrical inputs into society begin the first Bitcoin unit of account second to block space the cost of data storage to pay to store your information online forever and what I’m trying to explain with this is that everything is going to change with the technologies in between the commodities but these three commodities will not change this one is contained it’s 21 million units but these two expand and also in other videos you will have seen that I show it typically in a linear series the cost to produce electricity the hash rate side of things from Bitcoin mining the Bitcoin blockchain all the different moving parts and metrics and obviously Bitcoin coming out the other end but that is not the end of the story the future of this is the interconnectivity of all three commodities together the demand response side things on the electrical grid such as here in Texas the Urkott electrical grid has demand response programs that fluctuation of supply and demand of power has a new buyer of power that is just an economic user so if the economics change the other way and to sell the electrons instead of consume them there is stability offered to the grid and higher economic return to the miners because you got to think of it like this a Bitcoin miner is optimizing for 100% uptime which means they need a grid or a power source with effective 100% uptime that is the perfection aspect and we’re continually working towards it we want to get maximum uptime so Bitcoin miners are incentivized to help the grid as much as possible because that’s their source their source input and then all of the different aspects of hash rate and the complexities going into the future of being hash rate being this reusable proof of work commodity that is going to complexify and of itself but what’s not going to change is its use and its expansion the the network hash rate going up to one zeta potentially this cycle i think it’s possible but with all this expansion of electricity that everyone needs compute that everyone needs and even the buildout of AI being helped by Bitcoin mining because Bitcoin mining per megawatt in terms of cost is onetenth of the price to build out so if you’re trying to access large power contracts you can build out Bitcoin mining to access those power contracts at onetenth of the cost of AI so all of this physical buildout whilst this digital race is trying to to race even further ahead quicker than the physical constraints of how much energy and compute we can produce well Bitcoin being this accelerant to all the different things we need in society whether it’s the energy sector compute microchip aspects or finance and the future there that as things change into the future what will not change is the relationship between these three core commodities so with Bitcoin mining again I’m not an art student so forgive me here bitcoin mining what is the key exchange rate or efficiency shall we say not exchange rate jewels per terash that is the direct conversion of electrical consumption for output hash rate and on the blockchain side of things here we’ve got hash rate going to produce Bitcoin blocks that is typically in mining pools and here’s the thing Bitcoin mining pools are the ones holding the pen of the accounting system and all of the different complexities going into the future on the blockchain side of things are new op codes new decisions of how much block space there should be or shouldn’t be all the different debates chaos and changes what will not change 21 million units expansion of hash rate expansion of compute so the expansion here and constraint here with the constant changes of different layers and different oh there’s endless there’s just continual complexity in the technology branches I always use solar as the nice easy drawing example again I’m not an art student um so yeah now here is the interesting one after I’ve put hash price in there BTC per terahash per A Bitcoin as a unit of account the understanding of how to buy something with a quantity of Bitcoin in your mind not a quantity of dollars and using Bitcoin as the settlement layer which people like Jack Dorsey and Block wanting to use payment terminals where you can pay Bitcoin that’s great if I go in and purchase a $3 coffee it’s not priced in Bitcoin i’ve just paid with Bitcoin with dollar as a unit of account but that’s okay for today the transition into the future in my opinion is Bitcoin per kilowatt hour or kilowatt for the cost of building out energy infrastructure what will Bitcoin bonds be used for in the future probably building out large energy infrastructure projects because they have the energy potential to produce compute to produce more bitcoin so you have to understand that anything h that has a fundamental relationship to electricity compute of bitcoin is going to have a mathematical relationship to a quantity of bitcoin and that quantity can derive into a quantity of kilowatt hours there is a cost to produce one bitcoin for a minor with a typical efficiency and so what I’m trying to explain here is these three um mathematical functions essentially and variables metrics these three represent the key core metrics as to how to understand your your ability to accumulate sats or build out things in relation to the different areas of the network but Bitcoin per kilowatt hour represents in my opinion the second Bitcoin unit of account commodity that comparison of electrons in the quantity of SATs because Bitcoin miners are already on the electrical grid such as here in uh Texas where if the electrons have an higher economic return to be sold back to the grid aka the the amount of dollar per bitcoin per kilowatt is higher they switch the machines off but they’re doing it the other way around they’re measuring what the value of Bitcoin is to the Bitcoin layer not Yes the dollar is involved at this stage but the whole aspect that I’m trying to explain is we can remove the dollar from that entirely you could have Bitcoin citadels that aren’t connected to any grid because Bitcoin is essentially a deacto wireless electricity grid because it standardizes a global price for energy that is compared to the revenue rate of how much you can earn per bitcoin per per terahash per day and that revenue rate is defined by your efficiency so again these three core uh metrics for your local efficiency your global access to revenue and that key comparison between those two decided by your individual access to these two your uptime and your efficiency on the mining perspective of this there is a lot to dive into with this but it’s all about the different perspectives that you look within the mining perspective the mining pool perspective the developers perspective people holding Bitcoin their perspective their purchasing power and their access to block space so those two Bitcoin unit of account components come in here the cost to store information online forever and the cost to buy energy in the future Bitcoin miners even today are continually moving towards becoming energy producers and what are they producing energy for to produce Bitcoin but if that energy in that moment in real time is being being directly priced against subsidy and fees it means global subsidy and fees and their fraction of that and their conversion efficiency gives a direct pricing of how much Bitcoin they’re earning per kilowatt hour so if you want to buy that energy from that miner on that local off-rid or large infrastructure scale grid or maybe even the Buckminster Fuller planetary scale grid it means we have a global pricing system that we can define an exchange rate from Bitcoin into electrons at the local level so you can buy your energy from a minor because he has a clear pricing comparison at the global level it delves into quite a rabbit hole that you go hang on well if Bitcoin can directly price electricity at a mathematical layer and electricity is used in a countless amount of inputs in the 21st century well now you can start creating Bitcoin unit account connections into everything that requires electricity to produce or even go backwards in the chain how much electricity can you produce with a barrel of oil and if that electricity can produce a quantity of Bitcoin maybe you can start standardizing a price for oil on a Bitcoin unit account all these sorts of things but again it’s about your efficiency at the particular local level the most efficient mining machines will demand a higher Bitcoin per kilowatt hour rate to buy that energy is more expensive they have more efficient compute and naturally you’ll find more efficient machines closer to cities on larger uh more sort of economically developed countries and what will happen is the less efficient machines will go out into countries that are less economically developed but it also means that the electricity on a Bitcoin unit of account is cheaper but here’s the thing as the network is continually expanding in hash rate it means that those holding Bitcoin 21 million fixed in supply um being priced at the rate of how much uh subsidy and fees is being distributed to that pool of compute and electricity that if you’re the one holding Bitcoin in any amount just by holding it and that exchange rate that cost of production to produce a bitcoin if you’re on the other side of that you want to buy the energy and switch that minor or off you’re able to buy everinccreasing amounts of electricity as the production cost of Bitcoin goes up basically what I’m trying to say is the production cost of Bitcoin is a direct exchange rate where you holding Bitcoin can buy electricity in the future when miners are the operators of electricity grids and micro grids and off-grid communities why would your neighbor switch his minor off if by delivering the electricity to you he does it at the same rate he’s producing Bitcoin or luck of Bitcoin or just slightly higher and he’s captured a premium and when he switches some of his machines off he can lower the efficiency and increase his revenue rate with the existing machines online so there’s an elasticity to that as well i’m going to stop it there if

Video Transcript:

hello there and welcome to the Hash Power Academy your place to learn everything and anything to do with Bitcoin the topic of today’s video is understanding that the continuation of just about everything and everyone trying to gobble up all of the spot Bitcoin which is not just buying into futures and options and cash settled instruments but actually the bearer Bitcoin on exchanges now right now Bitcoin on exchanges represents in dollar terms about I’ve seen from some exchanges 30ish% and some it’s 40% so the fact that the significant majority of asset on exchanges is just Bitcoin whether that’s the exchanges own Bitcoin customer Bitcoin and that difference between their assets and liabilities and the rest of the assets you’ve got something like USDT which is a always a big chunk and then and it granularly gets smaller and smaller from there so we’re talking about the largest most significant most important asset across exchanges and trading pairs continually in decline as all of the Bitcoin gets pulled off of exchanges over time and we see this continuation happening non-stop year-over-year and it’s the same dynamic that mining has where uh you earn a smaller quantity of Bitcoin over time with uh a greater price to it so the dollarized value represents a a decent amount of pie chart um but that quantity is diminishing whilst all of the other assets in quantity terms are increasing with issuance now here’s the thing with Bitcoin being pulled off exchanges there’s less Bitcoin to trade there’s less liquidity so you’ll naturally see thinner order books on the top side now what this does is a couple of things you’ve got less liquidity which means more volatility and that aspect of the nature of people huddling Bitcoin if there’s less uh if there’s less Bitcoin to be moving around on all these different order books on the internet uh because it’s being pulled off into cold storage into Michael Sailor’s uh uh everything that he’s doing and what this does is it creates wider spreads new incomers to Bitcoin that want to go and buy Bitcoin if there’s if there’s a thinner order book there’s naturally more spreads and you got to think of the other way around uh on the exchange side of things having having the significant majority um of their potential revenues from Bitcoin trading pairs which tend to be the ones of highest volume and I I assume the highest fees all of that sort of culminates that more risk more risk steps in when it comes to having your Bitcoin on exchanges it’s not to say it’s a slowmoving bank run but that’s something close to it and what we see over time and this is this is the trend of balance on exchanges has just been continually in decline there’s a few moments where there’s a there’s an increase of the prices crash so a load of Bitcoin floods onto exchanges but it’s that diminishing aspect of the the quantity of Bitcoin on exchanges inevitably going down now I have my own ideas as to how to help uh exchanges uh boost liquidity with high compliance health bitcoin it’s called mining and naturally you’ve got the farm and the farmers market so to speak as a natural circular economy with compute potentially in the middle and on the other side of that security aspects if exchanges suffer a situation where the number one asset on their exchanges is both in decline more volatility less fees they’re going to take more risk and the security aspects of you personally having your Bitcoin on exchanges just continues this trend until there’s just such a small amount of Bitcoin on exchanges that yeah every bull cycle people experience um this endless rush into certain assets and markets and exchanges and they take risk and they take a lot of risk if if if the asset coming in is is is continually in decline relative to withdrawals coming out so be very careful this bull cycle and if you’re questioning and doubtful of anything it’s always good to make sure you’ve got your same computational Bitcoin eggs not in different baskets but a decent amount in cold storage and don’t take one singular decision to any of these yield treasury stocks and sailor and don’t put it all in one that’s the key thing have a decent chunk in self-custody and if you’re looking for yield and cash flows explore mining it’s the most intrinsic natural yield to the Bitcoin network um on the other side of that you’ve got infinitely more dollars chasing fewer and fewer sats so we’re just going to see the price absolutely rocket but you’ve also got to think and consider about it’s not just the spot Bitcoin side of things you’ve got this futures and cash settled with larger institutions doing something called delta neutrality which is they’ll buy the Bitcoin spot and short it on the futures side at the same time and what this does is they’ll capture the funding rates of retail investors flooding into the exchange going into leverage to push the Bitcoin price up paying funding rates and the large institutions on the other side are just capturing that volatility and they don’t care what the price does the other strategy to that is they are accumulating spot Bitcoin and holding a futures posit position against it capturing those funding rates and fees and they just want the prices to go sideways and maybe upwards um over time as long as possible so that they can accumulate as much spot bitcoin as possible because typical futures positions only need a margin to hold as as the collateral against the position so yeah I think that’ll be it for today’s video thank you for listening hope you enjoyed hope this was a different sort of perspective and I will see you in the next video goodbye

Explained: Bitcoins Fundamental Circular-Economy | Hashpower Academy

Explained: Bitcoins Fundamental Circular-Economy | Hashpower Academy



Bitcoin’s circular economy is its heartbeat, ticking every 10 minutes! I dive into the Economic (BTC) – Energy (kWh) cycle, where energy, compute, and finance form the network’s body, mind, and soul. This system powers three core markets: Energy (BTC/kWh) sets mining’s energy exchange rate; Compute (BTC/TH) drives hashrate rewards; and Finance (BTC/vB) fuels settlement fees. Together, they connect Bitcoin’s pulse to our lives.

Video Transcript:

hello there and welcome to the Hash Power Academy your place to learn just about everything to do with Bitcoin and when I mean everything I mean everything because this represents the entirety of Bitcoin’s economic energy ecosystem now that’s a quite a few mouthful of words so let me just break it down a little bit so you’ve got these three key directions on the top side which is energy production and energy consumption and they represent the physical world of Bitcoin and maybe I should put it the other way round so the the digital side is on top but maybe for another video now on the bottom half you’ve got well Bitcoin mining producing hash rates which produces Bitcoin blocks which is where Bitcoin comes from and so in its entirety we’ve got solar which is a producer of electricity bitcoin mining which is a consumer and stabilizer across such a grid system and then you’ve also got Bitcoin mining which bridges the digital phys physical gap that the only thing that could update Bitcoin’s blockchain and allow Bitcoin to move is people out there in the world consuming excess cheap electricity to produce Bitcoin which moves it between the wallets and the only way Bitcoin moves between wallets is an update to the chain the mempool this market here the amount of Bitcoin you’re paying per virtual bite to pay your Bitcoin to store information and the miners are the ones producing the block space and getting paid said Bitcoin that you’re paying them so you’ve got these three core markets interconnecting these worlds as well and oh where am I and these core markets are going to be the energy market Bitcoin per kilowatt hour or megawatt hour for industrial scale that’s Bitcoin miners saying “Why would I sell you my electricity when I can globally turn it into a thousand sats whatever the number is I’ll sell you the power at thousand sats because that’s what the network is paying me.” So miners have this global comparison as the bridge between the two physical digital worlds and they have a choice sell you the power locally or monetize it globally and if both paths reach the same destination on the other side of the equation well that is the new establishment of the energy markets and that goes into the conversation of Bitcoin as a unit of account and the pricing of things and the emphasis of miners consuming electricity and their efficiency aspect and that creates the dollar per terash pricing of that market obviously we’re at dollar per kilowatt here for now and obviously people thinking of what fee they’re paying why this is particularly important is because today’s state of Bitcoin where 99% of block rewards the the income that miners get is subsidy it’s that fresh supply of Bitcoin to distribute the full 21 million and once that full 21 million is distributed uh essentially subsidy represents the training wheels of a hundred years so you’ve really got to think of Bitcoin in a multi-generational way that in a 100 plus years time that all of the Bitcoin will have been mined so to speak but what do the miners earn they earn the fees of those holding all of that 21 million Bitcoin with half of it lost to wallets and thefts and whatever else and the other half circulating and that circulating Bitcoin is paying fees based on those using Bitcoin as a settlement layer for trade and transaction not your coffee purchase but maybe the purchase of your house and land and all those sorts of things but interestingly enough when it’s just fees pricing all of this energy and the income aspect of of having your own compute this market the the block space market becomes the fundamental market for settlement you got the fundamental market for compute which is dollarized for now my business that I haven’t truly delved into detail which is the democratization of Bitcoin mining in simple language allowing everyone to access mining in a financial sense so they can learn about it knowing oh I paid this amount of energy got paid out this amount of Bitcoin and you take the math layers and build a financial layer on top which I’ve been doing and it gets very interesting and boils down to this miners produce a hash rate and they consume it in the effort mining pools the collection of loads of Bitcoin miners hash rate to produce Bitcoin blocks and get paid Bitcoin so you see that there’s this interconnectivity Bitcoin blocks being produced and those paying fees to consume it and that is the circular economic energy ecosystem of Bitcoin you can use all different ways to observe this the the body mind and soul the holy trinity it’s a it’s a rabbit hole to to offer different perspectives to view this in different ways and yeah that’s uh one interesting way to see Bitcoin not just for today but that multigenerational future where once all of the subsidy once all the 21 million is distributed Bitcoin uses this state this setup this is inevitably how Bitcoin stays alive this is its bloodstream um you could consider the the the blockchain its its heart every pump coming every 10 minutes of time approximately and as as there’s more pressure in the system maybe it it constrains it to to add more value to the units because that’s exactly what happens the the value of Bitcoin beyond the debt money system of today you really have to strip down your idea of dollars in your mind and pounds because um they’ve become just as normal for us to understand the measurable value of things in the shop the price of the house food going into the pub like it’s it’s it’s become debt money has become as fundamental as length width and weight and all these sorts of um raw measurements SI units and you have it’s really tough for a lot of people to to change the perception of those units in their mind because just look at the world today uh the units a dollar buys you less over time the the dollar stores I think don’t sell anything for a dollar anymore because the costs the energy aspect to produce said items keeps increasing and fiat money tries to price energy it tries the pro dollar system it such uh large superpowers have invaded countries and they typically are countries with a lot of energy based resources or partnerships with energy- based nations and the other thing I’d like to offer is the the interplay of wealth in our world that what’s the superpower going to be in 10 years 50 years 100 years on a Bitcoin standard it truly is those in terms of a national scale that build out electrical grids allow miners to stabilize them it’s a it’s a it’s a consumer of energy that is strictly economic they strictly want to accumulate as much SAT for the energy they have available and if that requires selling it because they can earn more that’s that grid stability aspect or turn it into global money it again it doesn’t matter in this system because you could sell the energy and reach Bitcoin or consume and produce Bitcoin and so that circular interplay of the maths and the finance on the outer layer it it just builds a system that that works that the the chaos of grid uh grid instability wherever it may may be in the world the financial markets compute in of itself is this crazy phenomena of one specific chain with the majority of compute but these uh alternative proofof work chains um on an arbitrage sense sometimes miners will switch the hash rate to a smaller chain because they see lots of fees or a price increase they capture that premium from that small proofof work chain and flip it into Bitcoin people do it with crypto miners as well but you’re you’re at risk of uh trying to buy a computer to capture the fees of some other alternative chain that by the time you get the computer it’s it’s just not going to pay you back so it’s a it’s a it’s a true zero to one phenomena uh if you look at the stock markets of the past and even to today it was the energy companies that were the most powerful and like think of standard oil it split into multiple different companies because the energy sector in financial terms is the most powerful it gives out oil to the world and receives money in return just just look at the Middle East the the abundant amount of wealth that they have is strictly because they export commodity value and import money same with California with the gold rush gold left California and goods and services value businesses and people flooded in now we’ve got a system where you in the middle of nowhere can issue money and spend it locally because of of an energy based system uh it it’s like um it’s like California on I don’t want to say steroids but everywhere imagine if energy abundance is monetized and stabilized everywhere that’s what’s happening now underneath the hood you’ve got the financial world trying to gobble up as much of this money as possible but underneath the system that sustains the value of Bitcoin if it shoots up to a million and production is still pushing 50 60 to 100K there’s too much premium the price in dollar terms can drop but on that in that future state it’s an energy based system where the the price of everything else in society will drop to its utility value because no one wants to hold assets such as property for financial uh goals that right now a lot of people escape the dollar the pound the euro the yen they escape inflation by holding assets because the assets keep raising in price because there’s the the money’s dropping so you you escape the melting fiat iceberg by holding assets but right now all these assets are financialized 2008 is a key example of this um people selling mortgages in a high-risk way and packaging and selling them on and it’s the financialization of property and the financialization of dot dot dot insert just about any sector any word is the everyone’s trying to understand where they can preserve their time and energy their work in something that sustains value over time um so I think I will leave it there that’s just a lot of information but yeah you got the physical side these three com components commodities the digital side of supply and demand of data settlement supply and demand of energy in the energy market supply and demand of compute and uh what I’m building myself is what if all of this was one unified liquidity infrastructure setup uh with a financial layer on top that’s where it gets very interesting but that’ll be a topic for another day and another time thank you for listening i hope you enjoy and I will see you in the next video to

Video Transcript:

hello there and welcome to the Hash Power Academy your place to learn just about everything to do with Bitcoin Now the topic of this video is I’m going to introduce you to this lovely diagram that I have been scribbling for a little while which is taking Bitcoin’s design and its structure of how it’s mathematically connected looking at the markets on top but also the discussion of scale that all of these six branches of the different topics the energy and carbon grids and electricity the hardware and heating systems uh networks the internet and hash rate as a digital commodity from the physical world and the Bitcoin blockchain this this data market for you and I to trade and transact but constrain it and secure it in a place that allows us to all trade and transact peer-to-peer And then lo and behold last but not least Bitcoin the actual bearer digital data money And what doesn’t change what will not change from the basics of when Satoshi used some electricity in his own computer in his own little network to produce blocks and stack the first 1.1 million Bitcoin that the system has just expanded and exploded You’ve got mining as an entire industry from two lines on the white paper When when blocks come in faster difficulty increases That single It’s not the exact sentence but that single sentence has birthed an entire industry and it’s all based on efficiency That’s the c key fundamental metric that allows you to survive or die as a minor Mining pools would come about because of the limitations of 144 payouts per day And if twice as many people join the network or another 100 it doesn’t the more you scale it you’re distributing all of the Bitcoin per day in 144 payments blocks And what that means is the frequency between your payments If you if you were a minor early on getting one block per day and then the network grew 10 times in size now you’re getting a block every 10 days What if that goes beyond a month or a year as in your percentage of the network revenue the percentage of how much you’re earning from the network diminishes to such a small amount that the frequency of your payouts is misaligned to your energy bill So now you’re paying energy bills whilst no money’s coming in so to speak So mining pulls of birth from the the the com the compute commodity branch where they they pay miners in in shorter frequencies So they’re aligned to their energy bills and they’re scaling into this entity that manages the block templating of what gets added to the chain Now the long-term scale of this trajectory is countries running their own mining pools I’m sorry That’s what I believe is most likely the outcome because as they begin to figure out all of the intricacies of these c core areas of Bitcoin they’re going to realize that that the truth of the truth of the chain is coming from issuance power and they do not have the ability to coordinate large amounts of energy and compute infrastructure and be highly efficient about it It’s a brutal industry but if you can play the game and you know your knowledge it rewards you very very well Now the majority of the discussion around scaling is always to do with the blockchain the Bitcoin blockchain in of itself and the the fee market the mele where you go in with Bitcoin paying to store information and the miners are producing the blocks to be paid to store people’s information in those blocks plus the subsidy So as subsidy gets cut in half over every four years you’ve got this transition onto an active dynamic fee market and it needs to be stimulated And that scaling is the discussion of all the different layers The layer twos which are more transaction velocity and then the layer threes which I argue will be more informationbased where it’s more of a social layer which is the the true humanto human interaction of all different things that the layer two is the convenience of of fast transactions but all of that trade settles to the layer one But the the intricacy there is we also want as many individuals to be able to pay to store in that layer one and not just be able to afford to to trade in the layer two That’s the self-s sovereignty aspect of things that sustaining that peer-to-peer nature of things as this branch of Bitcoin expands and ex and scales and the energy side of things This is never going to change because we’ve got all of this constraint to 21 million units and each it’s about this collective versus individual uh paradigm put put your shoes in how the network the network at a scale views things and then put yourself in the individual If you individually have an opportunity where you know uh a good source of power that’s just local the industry has left and it’s an old hydro dam or something like that Anywhere that there’s excess energy think of Bitcoin as a recycling system a mcelium network that the participants us humans actively go out in the world and find where there’s excess energy and it can be wirelessly transmitted into money That’s it It’s about us plugging in these wastes that are inevitably everywhere in the world because we always have to be producing more energy than we actually consume because the other way round uh is not very good It’s called a power cut in the electrical grid sense And here’s the thing when it comes to energy systems they’re very large and national scale But the whole aspect of this discussion around scaling is if you’ve not noticed there’ll be some of you that will recognize that uh the layout of this diagram is a little bit sacred and geometric that the discussions that we’ve just had in the start of this video is that the the mining machines they’re changing more efficient different calling system everything’s changing but the one thing that doesn’t change is the brute force efficiency that if you’re not a manufacturer producing a better ASIC computer that consumes less energy to produce more hash rate to produce more Bitcoin You’re out of business Goodbye Efficiency name is the name of the game for this branch With the pulls it’s the amount of hash rate because they’re in a race against the next um they’re in little stretches of of two week sprints that who can who can find the many most blocks before u the reality check of more participants joining the network the difficulty adjustment comes into play on the fee market side of things If you are if you are trading transacting as a bank you need block space which means you need hash rate but you don’t want to be involved in the mining side of things So there is a discussion there uh for anyone that wants to reach out to such ideas in the Bitcoin side of things It’s it’s bare asset It’s it’s money that all of these other commodities are going to be continually circulating and pricing against this digital bearer asset And what that does to our world is all of the energy systems being plugged into this new energy based monetary system that’s operating in this new digital domain that we call the internet that that everyone’s got their brains plugged into but their bodies in the real world I feel like I don’t even feel I have this very high resonance that having a digital form of money that is physically constrained to the real world with a cost to produce just might be the thing that helps say the younger people of society that have grown up assigning value to digital things We grew up playing games and Farmville and I’m going back in the years but in-game currencies and tokens and coins and collectibles we we have that mindset of a younger age to assign true value to these things Whether that’s the right or wrong way to go in in life that’s what young people have as a as a mental model that we grew up with these two worlds to operate in And uh there’s a lot of kids that uh they they seem without life if they’re not plugged into a screen which is very sad I hope that a digital form of money that is connected back to the physical world just might help just might help Um and those that take the journey to to understand this interconnectivity of these two worlds I think that just makes an effort towards um bringing them back into the real world so to speak Um I’m on that journey as well Now everything’s changing in terms of scale So how big do you think we can go how how big this this system of producing energy systems the excess energy recycled into compute to add blocks and settle and secure trade on the other side So Bitcoin acts as this yingyang between energy and money and the circulation and chaos and order truly And and there’s there’s circular local economies with all these different sectors Um and here’s the thing It can scale down as small as a mini miner a battery and some solar panels uh with an internet connectiv internet connection your own node and your own wallet And you are self-s sovereign uh operating across all three areas of energy comput and finance So you can have this I believe people I believe that this will all get constrained back to a single device just like Satoshi did He probably had his laptop produced his own Bitcoin stored the information and wallet all in one But because the network has expanded out into these multi-billion dollar going trillion dollar and that old unit of account terms of things it’s expanding into all these massive industries and sectors and integrating into energy systems in the megawatts to gigawatt scale um it can go as big I believe as the planet in terms of it’s already as big as the planet but the the the reason I say planet is because um our financial system innovated at the pace of the speed of communication because right now Bitcoin allows us to communicate with money data and energy so to speak um at the speed of light And if we were to go to Mars we’re going to need energy infrastructure heating systems and everything to keep us alive But we’re going to need a system where you know the money is not going to be US debt dollars from millions of miles away It’s going to be something more intrinsic to the vital things that will be needed to survive in that new environment on Mars which will be these kind of systems And what that means is that if if there was an ability to have uh Bitcoin develop on Mars it would not be able to coordinate with the nodes here in here on Earth because we’re limited by the communication system that the speed of light the the gap of communication if you send a signal from the U I keep saying about to say the UK from from the UK to Mars that gap in time can be 10 to 20 minutes Now if blocks are being added to the Earth Bitcoin chain at every 10 minutes we you wouldn’t be able to coordinate nodes in another planet So I believe that the limitation of Bitcoin is to the planetary scale which I think’s vitally important And that’s the scale on the big side of things in terms of how in terms of how the system builds out like locally to interconnectivity I do believe that there’ll be a lot of people that that they don’t want to economically mine but they use mining as a system that plugs between I want my own community location I need money because everyone’s everyone’s pondering the idea of not disappearing off into the jungle but being able to build out their own self- sustaining way of living growing organics and all these sorts of things and greenhouse farming in a world that the climate could be a little bit more volatile So you need green houses that can stay warm And so you’ve got this system where energy money and all vital commodities for for human living combined with a system where the excess wastes can be turned into a digital form of money where I have my own computer on my site and you have the exact same computer the other side of the planet But if we have the same computer consuming the same local energy connected to the same amount of global finance the pricing system is standardized whether you are deeply integrated into society living in the city or in the middle of the the jungle that we now have a financial system based on energy that standardizes it as a global level so that the local level is priced by efficiency So Bitcoin brings about a system which scales to all different aspects of society as we’re seeing There’s deep complexities in all six directions and it’s all changing But what does not change is the maths and the physics of how these three areas connect and the three core technologies and the three core commodities Um I’m going to add something else as well The other interesting thing is what I’ve been developing is understanding how Bitcoin’s unit of account framework comes into this which these core areas also have markets So the dollar per terahash pricing of machines is based on the efficiency hash rate in of itself that’s a discussion for another day You’ve also got the block space side of things that also you can arbitrage between If Bitcoin Cash has a load of random fees fill up on their mele there will be some hash rate from Bitcoin that will switch to this other chain capture those fees and then sell them into Bitcoin So it’s truly a one to many that now that Bitcoin has scaled it will kill any other proofof work competitor And I truly believe that they will never ever reach the same scale of Bitcoin unless something truly internally has a problem But the structure of this design of this system is truly phenomenal My my educational background is that of engineering and risk management where looking at how systems break uh was how I was paid and I’ve not figured out or even conceptualized how this system breaks There’s certain particular things but it it it can only break internally That’s that’s that’s what I would say But the the cryptography aspect is what constrains all of this I think it’s it’s the one that that new incomers to Bitcoin probably learned about the least the deep cryptography aspects of how this system works Um and it’s definitely an educational direction for me as well Thank you for listening I think I’m going to stop it there Um I’m going to do some more videos with this diagram but uh questions comments thoughts theories I shall uh be enjoying this video and I hope to see the comments So thank you for listening Goodbye

Video Transcript:

hello there and welcome to the HashPower Academy your place to learn anything and everything to do with Bitcoin from the fundamentals the topic of today’s video is going to look at the comparison of gold and Bitcoin their market caps which right now gold’s market cap in rank one as an asset is 10 times higher than Bitcoin so the price of Bitcoin today needs to increase 10x to 1.1 million to outperform gold but here’s the thing the price of gold is changing i think the price of Bitcoin is changing the pri the supply of Bitcoin is reaching its full 21 million the supply of gold who knows and so what we need to do is understand what is going to change to anticipate what price of Bitcoin that it outperforms gold yes the Moonboy metrics are coming out so 10.3x that’s the amount that it needs to increase today but here’s the thing if the price of gold were to increase to say $4,000 4,000 um we need to understand what this multiplier is which is I’ve already done the numbers 26 trillion 26.86 trillion now we need to divide the 26.86 by 2.2 2 which gives us a figure of not 10.3x but 1211 to be very specific and then we multiply that by the bitcoin price and we get an answer of 1.355 million 1.355 million so 1.355 million per Bitcoin at a point where gold has reached $4,000 an ounce and Bitcoin would need to reach 1.355 if it’s a $5,000 uh gold predicted price that increases to 1.7 million so I’m going to write that so can we see a Bitcoin price of 1.7 million maybe but this is assuming it going up to $5,000 an ounce for gold and so understanding that these two assets are correlated in in the essence of their scarcity one through its atomic weight and hard to hard to produce in the physical world and its value derived from its scarcity as well and its timelessness versus Bitcoin which has transcended energy into a digital domain and its scarcity preserved over time to afford us more purchasing power we clearly know which one’s going to stand the test of time but when that point is reached this cycle I’m not so sure 1.7 million this cycle that would be extremely bullish uh or even down to the 1.3 1.4 million per Bitcoin what could affect this is also that what if the price of gold doesn’t actually increase that much because we see so much demand specifically for Bitcoin in the digital age of the 21st century uh potentially it could go down but potentially both of these assets shoot up to insane price valuations in dollars because it’s not the Bitcoin or the gold that aggregates these prices in dollar terms it’s the amount of dollars flooding into circulation and distorting these prices thank you for listening i hope you enjoy and I will see you in the next video goodbye

3 Cycles of Bitcoin Price: Secrets of the 2030s | Hashpower Academy

3 Cycles of Bitcoin Price: Secrets of the 2030s | Hashpower Academy



Bitcoin’s price is a wild beast, but miners’ production floor—energy cost to mine 1 BTC—sets its energy exchange rate (BTC/kWh). I dive into 3 halving cycles (2028, 2032, 2036) to model 2030s prices. Halvings cut rewards, doubling miners’ costs, pushing the floor higher—think 2020’s $4k crash to $8k rebound. In a world where difficulty and markets shift, halvings are the only sure bet. Forget price guesses; the production floor’s rise signals Bitcoin’s value. Watch now—crack the energy code for 2036!

Video Transcript:

Hello there and welcome to the Hashpower Academy, your place to learn anything and everything to do with Bitcoin from the fundamentals. Now, the topic of today’s video, we’re going to look at the three cycles of Bitcoin going into the future. So, that being up to 2028, 2032, up to 2036 and beyond, understanding that lots of things change, but things tend to stay the same whilst changing a lot. And what I mean by this is the network’s going to use more energy. Efficiency is going to do go down. Hash rate is going to increase. Mining rewards are going to decrease per terahash. And obviously we hope that the fee market increases. So as you can see there’s lots of paradoxical chopping and changing through the entire network. But what we need to understand about where Bitcoin goes to the upside is how low it can go to the downside. The retracement back to reality is where things could be best built off in terms of fundamental understanding. So right now we’re 50k production floor which is creeping up and up and up. But guess what happens when we hit 2028? The h havinging to every bitcoiner is the doubling to bitcoin miners. Because if your energy bill stays the same, but the amount of Bitcoin that you earn when the hing comes along cuts in half, it means that it cost you twice as much in electrons to produce the same amount of Bitcoin and thus the production floor doubles. So let’s say production is 75K and that’s being generous for 2028. This is probably I’m actually going to delete this. We are going to go up to 100K. I do believe that by the next h havinging the production floor for Bitcoin miners will be about $100,000. Now if the fee market is abysmally low as in the amount of Bitcoin per virtual bite that you are paying to store your transaction data in the blockchain forever all the nodes to hold on to that data forever. Well, if that’s very low and subsidy is still the majority of miners revenue, the amount of Bitcoin they earn per terahash per day, we could see the production floor doubling. It happens every single time there’s a hing. So, we could see this uh shoot up to say 200k production floor. Right now, what happens over a four-year cycle? More hash rate coming online, more efficiency, yes. uh subsidy stays the same over the four-year period. Fees continually, we don’t know. We hope that it goes up, which actually lowers the rate of the production floor relative to the price. So, we could see hopefully a creep up to $250,000 by 2032. That is very loosely suggesting that the network increases by say from a $200,000 price production floor to say 250. That’s about 25% increase in network hash rate. I 100% believe that we’ll be at a,000 xahash um one zetaash one zeta of hash rate. Having comes along, the amount that we’re earning per terahash per day cuts in half. So, can 25% more hash rate can another 250 xahash come online over four years? It’s probably a lot higher than that. And why am I showing you all this? Well, guess what sits on top? It’s the price. So somewhere the price takes off maybe retrace is down and continues. Price always sits on top of production because um the asset is more freely available to use. So it builds up a premium in several other ways. Um and it’s that direct exchange rate to dollars that what is the upside to the dollar to bitcoin exchange rate? It’s infinite because there’s no top to Bitcoin’s dollar price because there’s no bottom to the value of the dollar until it goes back to its reality of being worth zero. So, do I see the price of Bitcoin shooting above 200,000 this cycle? Yes. I see it retracing um back down to during that sort of hinging period. I do see it being able to trace back down to before 20 2028 I it has the potential to to drop down but this is what it did um during the 2020 h havinging was that um you can replace 100k and 200k for $4,000 and $8,000. the price crashed to $4,000 um in the h havinging um just before the h havinging sorry and it retraced up to 8,000 very quickly. The recovery from COVID the price recovered really quickly. So even if this um energy energy exchange rate for Bitcoin reality check just raises the production floor every h havinging the doubling as I like to call it. Um and again this is where it gets crazy. If we’re at a 2 $150,000 production cost for Bitcoin in 2032. What do you think? The next h havinging comes along and cuts it in half again. But again, fees begin to take over. So we might we might not see the h havinging um double the production cost, but it may just increase it say 30 40%. Um we truly don’t know. It’s all about the block reward being a combination of subsidy and fees in combination. Right now subsidy is 99%. So if the 99% of revenue cuts in half, pretty much 50%. Um if fees start becoming 10 20 30 40% of block rewards, which is fundamentally what we want, um the h havinging has this lesser and lesser effect. But I still think confidently at say $250,000 production cost in 2032 that if subsidy represents half of uh mining rewards and cuts in half to 25% that means that fees begin to stop being the the 75% and the uh subsidy cutting in half from 50 down to 25% in terms of its relative of the total block reward. board. If it only increases the production floor by 25% from 250K, that’s roughly 50 50 to 70ishk. So, I’m just going to say $300,000 on this one. So, where do I think price will be in 2032? This is being generous but that way that’s the short answer. Now this is basing off the pure math maths and physics of Bitcoin of knowing that our production cost right now is creeping up because when the price shoots above 100K whilst people are producing at 50, it means miners are capturing a 2 to one premium. They are capturing $2 of economic value for every $1 of input value. And a bull cycle can make that ratio go up to eight n 10 times where $1 of energy input is recovering $10 of economic output. And that signifies the top as well. And when it’s one to one, that signifies a bottom. That’s why I say that the production floor tends to function as a floor price for Bitcoin. And it has throughout all the cycles. And when price in dollar terms absolutely deviates and takes off, a Bitcoin price of a million dollars for example right now would enable miners to be earning 100 no sorry $1 per kilowatt hour which means that they would be say paying the typical miner is paying between four five six seven eight cent per kilowatt hour. So if they start earning a dollar per kilowatt hour, they’re going into 2030 times their money. Input $1, output $30. That is insane. And what that means is what do you think miners do with said economic returns? They stack it in Bitcoin. Yes, with that very high valuation of Bitcoin, but it accelerates the process. They go and reinvest in more machines capturing that massive premium. And this is why Bitcoin mining always seeks to find a steadystate equilibrium between the economic potential to be captured on the financial side and the amount of compute in terms of you can think of hash rate as network shares. They are if you own 10% of the hash rate that’s online, you’re capturing 10% of the network’s fees and block rewards roughly. And luck is is what changes that. Now, what I’m trying to explain here in terms of these three cycles of Bitcoin price is we don’t know how much hash rates coming online or how efficient the next wave of machines are relative to this production floor because efficiency of machines lowers the production floor. But efficiency represents uh an advancement on the technology side. An increase in energy consumption. It’s not just uh machines being replaced, it’s machines being added to the network in conjunction with other machines in other um economic setups such as someone that’s got a uh solar farm and they don’t need machines running 24/7. They just want to have a few old mining machines capturing some of that economic return when um when there’s some when there’s some excessive sun. So they’re not even running the machines 24/7. They’re just capturing it. So there’s all these different older uses for old machines. So there’s hash rate always coming online and hash rate raises uh the difficulty which reduces the amount of Bitcoin that you earn per terash per day. And so this floor price keeps going up. But why I base it say on these hinging events is because everything to do with the future is unknown. But what we do know is that h havinging event is coming. This one’s coming. This one’s coming until all 21 million are distributed. The monetary policy of Satoshi Nakamoto for the full distribution of 21 million of these units. That was set over a decade ago at least. Now that’s not going to change hopefully. And what this means is that we have this ability to anticipate what is being issued at any moment in time. So from that point it’s working it back to how much hash rate is capturing said blocks and then the efficiency goes down to the energy level of how much energy is being used to produce the amount of hash rate online to capture said 144 blocks of time regulated energy monetary units per day. Now, what this basically means is we are going to see some obnoxiously high price in Bitcoin relative to today. Um, yes, there will be people from the crypto world that think, oh, why would I buy Bitcoin at 100,000? If it goes to 200,000, I only make double your money. um they’ve completely lost the point as to why we are trying to preserve our economic energy as a collective pool of wealth across the planet where the very pricing system fundamentally comes from energy but it respects other people’s ability to buy, send, and spend it because it has that direct alignment with how everything else in society is produced and consumed with energy. I think I’m going to stop it there. The premise of this is the Bitcoin price is going to go obnoxiously high by 2036 at least. I’m most excited about block 1 million. I think that would be quite an interesting event just before the havinging which could see a load of fees and other alternative use cases of the blockchain that we don’t particularly want to see. But also people see the importance of fees increasing because that accelerates because again if these are payments of fees to miners and miners then plug in more machines which raises the difficulty and thus the value of Bitcoin as well. When more miners plug in, its exchange rate between energy and Bitcoin increases, thus raising your purchasing power in literal sense, as well as the uh ability to spend it. Thank you for listening. I hope you enjoy. This is a bit of a different video, probably a longer one, but uh I’m back. I’m ready to produce lots of content and uh I want your thoughts, feelings, questions, queries, emails, inquiries, consult consultations on different business ideas that you have and I will see you in the next video.

Nodes: Can you handle the Truth? | Bitcoin Education | Hashpower Academy



Nodes—are you ready for their truth? In Bitcoin’s circular energy money economy, holders pay to store data on the blockchain, miners cash in to add blocks, but nodes? They’re the unsung volunteers holding it all together, storing every transaction’s truth. From Bitcoin Core to Knots, miners to Mara, I dive into the heart of the network. Too much cost on nodes could break this balance—think mempool bloat, OP Return, Runes, Ordinals, even ETFs and NFTs clogging blockspace. Developers shape the rules, but nodes enforce them. Watch now—uncover why nodes are Bitcoin’s backbone and how to keep them thriving!

Video Transcript:

Hello there and welcome to the HashPower Academy. My name is Jacob Scandalan. I’m the lead educator here at the academy and this is your place to learn anything and everything to do with Bitcoin from the fundamentals. Now the topic of today’s video is looking at the current debate uh with the Bitcoin community, Bitcoin core and their decision to want to increase the OP return limit which allows essentially more arbitrary information to be able to store in the Bitcoin blockchain. And the key question for you is what price would you pay? What price should you pay to store information online forever? And the the back end of that very interesting question is that the Bitcoin nodes are the volunteers of the Bitcoin network. They are storing all of this transaction information. Tik Tok next block. That is a group of people all around the world, thousands of them that all individually have a storage device for storing all of our transactional truth because you can only add Bitcoin blocks to the chain with an expended amount of energy from the mining sector producing compute producing Bitcoin. and those holding Bitcoin, those are the ones paying to store their transaction information in the Bitcoin blockchain. So the nodes are a series of interconnected people having updates from the miners of a new block for new transactions to be stored and they are being informed as to that minor saying, “Well, I want to store this group of transactions in the blockchain.” And you got everyone holding Bitcoin and those running nodes broadcasting that they want to store their transaction information in the block. And so the nodes are these volunteers in the middle whilst the Bitcoin holders are paying fees to the miners and the miners are continually adding more blocks to the chain to collect those fees. So miners are incentivized to produce as much block space as possible because they get paid for doing so and they get subsidy as well. And subsidy right now is the majority of a miner’s revenue. It’s 98 99% of the total block reward of both subsidy and fees. But we inevitably into the future go to a point of time where there is no more subsidy. the 21 million units of digital real estate of Manhattan, the first purchases of this prime digital real estate that is a bidding auction of electricity and compute that is continued now for over a decade at least and is going to go forward multiple more decades 100 plus years of the bidding auction of electricity and compute into Bitcoin. But with price sitting on top as well, uh price has been the one thing that a lot of people have focused on the most. But let’s go back in time. Let’s go back to the dawn of Satoshi Nakamoto consuming a small amount of energy in his CPU to produce a small amount of hash rate which he produced his own Bitcoin blocks and stored his own Bitcoin with his own private key. And so you have this complete vertical integration of all the responsibilities and node running at the start of Bitcoin was that functionality that every computer was producing hash rate, producing blocks and preserving their own private keys. And so at the dawn of time, mining wasn’t an industry. and holding your private keys and being a Bitcoin holder wasn’t an industry in the sense of it’s fragmenting now into wallets and platforms and exchanges and layer twos and ETFs that on the financial side above the Bitcoin blockchain the responsibilities of holding your own private keys has obiscated. If you’re if you’re holding your Bitcoin with an ETF, you’re essentially, you know, letting someone else be responsible for your for your digital money. That is a double-edged sword. And then on the mining side of things, as mining got harder and harder because as more people uh joined the party to get their slice of the cake, more people, smaller slice. And so the the timeline of mining has required more energyintensive, more efficient computers and it’s broadened out into its own industry. It’s a m mining is a multi-billion dollar industry and it’s delving deeper and deeper into the energy sector. And so you’ve got everything underneath Bitcoin producing blocks expanding out into the energy sector. And you got everything in the financial side expanding out into the financial sector. But what has not changed in the middle? It’s those that run a node. That you’ve got the miners incentivized to add more information to nodes broadcasting blocks of, hey, take this file, add it to your file storage, and let’s all preserve the transactional truth of the Bitcoin chain. And you’ve got holders performing all different types of economic activity all across the planet wanting to pay to store their information in the blocks. But the nodes in the middle are the volunteers. And so going from the past of all responsibilities to produce blocks, store blocks, and own the information, the Bitcoin data money in the blocks started as one in the same job role. But coming to the present, we’ve got now a system which is adding 50 to 100 gigabytes of data uh every year and that will increase. Why? Because if we increase the amount of arbitrary non-information that’s not monetary in form, different file types so to speak into Bitcoin blocks, yes, it does stimulate an increase in the fee rates. Miners, well, well, like Marathon, they are allowing these large files to be stored in Bitcoin blocks because they’re paid for doing so. So to miners, they care about the uh the fee rates because inevitably subsidy disappears and you’re only just getting paid fees. That is the inevitable finality of mining from the mining perspective. that miners are when subsidy is gone, miners will be able to arbitrage, energy, compute aspects of heating systems and selling electricity, but it’s all priced and benchmark against the amount of Bitcoin they can capture per block mined. And so their avenue to capturing this Bitcoin is to store as much information in the block. So this just helps you understand where the miners sit in this debate. And then people holding Bitcoin, they want the fee rate to be as low as possible. So So the access to block space is cheap. So you got miners who want the fee rate to be high as high as possible and Bitcoin holders that want the fee rate to be as low as possible. And interestingly enough, from the things that we teach here at the Hashpower Academy is block rewards get priced against a miner’s compute and energy. If block rewards go up, the value of hardware goes up. But also, the price in which miners are willing to sell their electricity goes up. Alternatively, if you’re holding Bitcoin and the fee rate is really low, the amount of electricity you can buy with your Bitcoin increases. So, paradoxically, the lower the fee rate that the amount of uh sats per virtual bite that you need to to store your transaction information in blocks, uh well, if the fee rate is really low, your Bitcoin allows you to buy more electricity and thus increasing its purchasing of power by literally uh being able to buy power from miners in in a future state. And then the miners, they want to be paid as much. And so holders want naturally low fee rates, but right now blocks are empty. And on the mining side, yeah, blocks being empty is an economic problem to the security budget. The the difficulty adjustment increasing is that as price and the value of Bitcoin increases, its security is increasing in tandem, which is important. And I think the key danger point is if we ever see one four-year cycle where difficulty does not increase, that would be the key danger I I believe for Bitcoin. And then what doesn’t change, we’ve talked about the past where it all used to be one in the same role. You ran a laptop, produced your own block, stor stored the information, and owned your own Bitcoin with your own private keys. And now it’s expanded out into wallets, apps, IUS, and not even running a full node anymore. People have pruned nodes and partial nodes and mining where the majority of miners don’t even run a node. They are just hash rate sellers. They’re not producing their own blocks. They are selling their hash rate, the the compute commodity, so to speak. They’re selling their hash rate to a mining pool and being paid Bitcoin whilst the whilst the mining pool is the the the the business entity of running a node so to speak. And mining as a mining and holding Bitcoin are the economical circulating economy around the nodes, but the nodes still in the middle are volunteers. So this is a very tricky and in intricate conversation when looking into the future. From my perspective, we’re coming from a debt-based money system going onto an energy based money system. We’re in the the ter the tumultuous change in that process right now in the point of time. And I believe if blocks are empty, that’s a problem. So, I don’t think this is I’m going to put out a an idea and I don’t think it’s the right or wrong approach, but I’m obviously looking for people’s thoughts and feedback that have a more technical leaning understanding of of Bitcoin from its from its uh developer sense, which is if blocks are empty, maybe the OP return limit should be slightly higher, but use the difficulty adjustment as as an aggregate for lowering and increasing um the the OP return so that in the peak of the bull market when there’s a lot of transactions flowing around um get rid of the arbitrary information essentially. But in the bottom of the bare market where the p you know the block space is empty and we’re just depending on subsidy which you know that’s not where we want to be. Then maybe open it so that blocks are being filled. But that that does endanger Bitcoin to becoming a cloud storage system. And I do believe that miners will have a lot more economic opportunity in not just hoping and crossing their fingers that the benchmark of their income is based on block rewards, but I believe that block rewards for miners are the least interesting final outcome for their use of compute. that there is, you know, the compute in of itself is the the representation that energy is available in the Bitcoin network and that energy can be sold and it’s being priced against um the fee rate of block rewards. the the global electricity grid of the blockchain comparing to their local uh energy availability that they’ve got a power contract with a quantity of kil and uh as their input and they got an output of bitcoin being mined and they can directly price those two and as they find buyers of energy the more they switch their machines off the more money that miners can earn. So I do see that miners should be building out in the physical root system instead of in the digital ethereical hope that other people’s other people uh take the cost of storing transaction information um aka the volunteers having to well we’re imposing more cost on the volunteers by having them store pictures and videos and music in the Bitcoin blockchain because the nodes if there is more cost to running a node less people will do it. That it’s great that there is mining on the physical side of Bitcoin’s decentralization fragmented across every country, every electrical grid, off-grid um with using network communications such as satellites um and ground stations and and the the internet in of itself is very decentralized. Um, but that digital side of decentralization, the transactional truth of that file, we want that in the hands of as many people running as many nodes, because if you think of the the millions that hold Bitcoin, and then the tiny percentage that run a node, that that truly began with the fragmentation of updating the blockchain, storing the blockchain, and owning the information on the blockchain. as those three fragmented out into finance and energy and running a node in the middle sort of became an enterprise business for mining pools which are still a for-profit business. That fragmentation I believe is where the problems began with people truly trying to wrap their head around the importance of running a node. So the key takeaway is run a node and if you believe that the op return limit should be higher, run Bitcoin core. If you believe it should be lower and you should just store monetary transaction information of economic activity on the network um in in a in a strictly monetary focus the the fragmentation of the central banking system debt based money um and transitioning onto an energy based money. Well, that’s that’s the path that I believe is is the most important from my side of things. I think the second most important transaction type that’s nonmonetary should be electricity because you’ve got you’ve got mining infrastructure deployed across the planet which is continually observing what’s happening on the blockchain already for the majority and it’s the other side of that trade is is is power markets. I do believe that that there should be some form of layer two that has net settlement to the Bitcoin blockchain to aggregate the amount of electricity being consumed and even pricing and trading of energy because as I’ve said there’s already a pricing system that miners right now especially in Texas if you if you Google demand response Bitcoin mining it will come up that miners are literally observing what’s more valuable with my power contract sell the power for X amount per kilowatt or mine into Bitcoin x amount per kilowatt. Which one pays me more? Machine off, sell the power. Machine on, consuming to produce Bitcoin. And that that means that Bitcoin’s most intrinsic market activity is not just block space, but also with energy markets. So, I believe if there was anything non-monetary that should be stored in the Bitcoin blockchain, it should be net settlement of energy trading. But that’s just me. Thoughts, comments, questions, queries? Um, I’m going to start adding links and donation things in the in the description because YouTube have demonetized me. Thank you very much. It’s just uh put an even bigger fire under my backside and um I’ve got to find other ways to keep this channel going because the time and energy to make this content is very important but also important for education. Thank you for listening. Hope you enjoy and I will see you in the next one. Goodbye.

Methane Mining & ASIC Efficiency Economics | Hashpower Academy

Methane Mining & ASIC Efficiency Economics | Hashpower Academy



Your Bitcoin mining rig choice is make-or-break—here’s why! Hardware gobbles 60%-90% of CAPEX costs, dwarfing energy for most grid-based ops. But what if you go off-grid? I dive into a methane mining case study from Texas and the Midwest, where stranded gas powers rigs at 1-3¢/kWh. Older, less efficient machines shine here, with faster paybacks than grid setups—think gas generators vs. $7.65M/mile pipelines. Could solar+battery rigs do the same for off-grid communities? I break down the numbers, compare hardware vs. energy CAPEX, and reveal how to pick your rig like a pro. Watch now—nail your mining strategy and profit big!

Video Transcript:

Hello there and welcome to the HashPower Academy. My name is Jacob Scandalan. I’m the lead educator here at the academy and this is your place to learn anything and everything to do with Bitcoin from a fundamentals first perspective. I have a question for you. What do you think in the setup of a mining operation is the most expensive part? Is it A the energy or B the mining hardware? Take your pick. The answer is B, the mining hardware. And this is because well for the significant majority of miners they are buying their power on electrical grids. And so the majority of their cost is also the mining machines which can represent 60 70 80 even 90% of their upfront costs for an operation. It can go into multiple millions of dollars per megawatt depending on how efficient the machine that they purchase. And so you’ve got to understand that miners are making so many different decisions on the type of machine, how efficient it is, the cooling system, whether it’s air cooled, immersion or hydro sort of solutions, and the location of those machines, the uptime, the access to repairs. There’s so many different parts that you can learn about. But today’s topic is going to look at methane mining, which changes up those economics in an interesting way. What if instead of buying your power on a grid, you’re actually producing your own power. And so you have a lot more cost in the capex, the setup cost side of things. And so the economics of which mining machine you choose to purchase will actually change because everything from the energy producers to the middle of the city the energy consumers and that price of energy gradually well not in England but gradually getting more expensive uh the further away from production you are and the closer you are to consumption that is a natural phenomena. And so here’s the thing what type of mining machine do methane miners use? oil and gas sites in the middle of nowhere with methane leaking out of drill sites and they have to capture it and burn it. That’s flaring. Or they have this this new opportunity to monetize that energy directly on site by capturing the energy, the methane. uh cleaning it a bit because there can be some impurities that will cause more problems in the generators than than a lot of cleaning and also yeah running that that generator producing electricity to produce uh hash rate to produce Bitcoin blocks to flow that digital energy money into your digital wallet. Now if you are interested in these sorts of things then I recommend you take a look at the hash power academy. We learn about everything and anything to do with Bitcoin from a fundamentals first perspective. And now, interestingly enough, methane mining is that absolute vertical integration, not even from watts to SATs, but also from the natural gas coming out of the ground. So, it’s another commodity layer underneath as well in part of the equation. But the key takeaway for this video is looking at that cost per megawatt with three different types of machine. Now, here’s the thing. On the financial side, a more efficient machine will produce a greater amount of Bitcoin per kilowatt hour because these are the maths side of things on the financial outputs of Bitcoin mining, but we need to look at the energy inputs as well. And that’s going to be the focus of this video. And so here’s the thing. If you have a setup cost of say 500k um of infrastructure set up of deploying a container, a generator and that system of converting methane into electricity. Well, let’s just say 500,000 per megawatt. And then you’ve also including that price of machine on top. Now, here’s the thing. If you are producing your own power, your energy cost is actually about one to three cent one to three cent per kilowatt hour but but it’s in the middle of nowhere so you need some form of solution that can consume the power directly on site and connect to the internet and that’s where Bitcoin mining comes in and why do we burn it well because methane in of itself when it releases up to the atmosphere I think its warming effect is 80 times the strength of CO2 in a 20-year period it breaks down over time so the inevitable solution is to burn it because it’s not economical to capture it and send it off somewhere. There’s there’s more cost in that than its economic value. And so here’s the thing. Bitcoin miners can come and locate onsite, work with or buy or partner with oil and gas producers and monetize that power and also collect carbon credits. So there’s all these other economics that come into play. But yes, let’s look at the economics of the cost per megawatt of three different types of machines. So a megawatt is a million watts. So let’s divide it down. A million watts with a machine that’s producing at 30 watts per terahash, how much hash rate per megawatt are we going to have? Now, this isn’t a standard metric, but it will just help you gain an understanding of how much hash rate you’re going to earn per megawatt, which also helps you understand how much Bitcoin per megawatt you’ll earn as well. 33.3 well 33,000 33 33. So with this efficiency of mining hardware, you’re going to produce 33,000 terraash of compute, which multiply by this amount of Bitcoin that you’re going to earn per terahash per day. You can multiply that out and you would get well $65 per megawatt. I get that right. Now, uh, on the 20 watts per terahash machine efficiency, you’ve got, uh, a million divided by 20, which is 50,000. So, you’re earning 50,000. You’re producing 50,000 terraash per megawatt. And there’s a point to this. Uh, with the 10 watt, we can just double that 100,000. So, you’re producing a 100,000 terraash per megawatt. That means that you can with these machines, you would have a greater quantity of machines with that same megawatt uh site. Now, here’s the thing. Different machines have different prices based on their different efficiencies. So if we uh if we multiply the uh $4 per terahash upfront capex multiplied by the amount of hash rate we need to obviously consume one megawatt. Well that is $133,000.33.3 okay $133,000 per megawatt with the least efficient hardware. And this is the next one. 700,000 700k and uh the most efficient machines producing the most amount of hash rate per megawatt earning the most amount per kilowatt hour. It sounds like the right decision, but here’s the thing. It’s 2 and a half 2.4 2.4 million $2.4 $4 million to purchase enough machines to be consuming one megawatt. And here’s the thing, mining is an opportunity to accumulate a greater quantity of Bitcoin over time. So, if you buy uh machines at $4 a terraash, you want that one terraash of compute, you can scale it to the machine amount. You want to produce $4 worth of Bitcoin at this rate. And this means effectively if you’re just looking revenue without adding and without removing the electrical cost side of things um trying to reach $4 from earning four call it 5 cent per day. Uh that’s a lot easier than uh having the most efficient machine uh that’s costing $24 a terraash and that obviously extrapolates out to the amount of cost per megawatt. So when you combine your setup cost of your generator, container, networking, infrastructure as well, all those pieces all as a flow of uh methane producing electricity to produce compute to produce Bitcoin, you got your $500,000 setup cost combined with one of these three. And so what happens is uh producers of energy will typically buy the more old uh less efficient mining hardware because they just have less capex and also they have extremely cheap power or wasted power in a lot of cases. And so the economics make sense where they’ll make a lot more money by buying the more inefficient machines. And there’s a second reason to this. This requires a high uptime to to to truly achieve that break even point. You’ve got the combination of also the uptime of the machine. And here’s the thing, in a environment such as the middle of nowhere oil and gas field, there might be times where machines go down, get dusty, and all those sorts of things. And so you need a solution to or sorry, you need to choose a machine that has a shorter payback period because machines will just go down. they will get broken. Whatever the reasons are, that’s just the dayto-day of mining. You can keep them really clean, change the filters all the time to prevent as much thermal damage as possible, but you inevitably are going to deal with the the forces of the real world. And so you don’t want to be putting the latest, most efficient mining machines worth millions of dollars in volume on a site that doesn’t have great uptime, has great economics, but those economics aren’t your concern because you’ve got cheap power. Now, I think this will also translate across to those eyeing up the idea of combining say um a solar battery setup, say at home or your off-grid community in the middle of the jungle, whatever it is. If you have access to producing power, the economics of buying the most efficient machines don’t make sense unless you have extremely high uptime. That is the 95 to 100% which call it the 95 to even 99 percentile. You get the gist. Now the other side of that is you also get carbon credits. So you’ve got this yield of earning carbon credits which is based on your energy consumption. you get you combine it with the cheap machines to produce a good amount of Bitcoin even when deducting your your energy costs or your staffing costs which could be say 2 cent per kilowatt hour um when comparing it to the electrical side of things. And this is the key variable here. The network determines what we are paid for exporting that energy onto the internet. And so having the carbon credits aspect, but also this lack of control of our true amount of income per terahash per day, it means that you want to reduce your upfront cost as much as possible. I think I’ll leave it there. Um, if you want a video looking at say the economics of solar battery um, as an upfront setup cost combined with a cheap machine or a really efficient latest generation machine. Um, that’ll be another video, I believe. Um, and also if there’s any of you out there just putting out to the universe that have oil and gas fields, um, and you want to explore methane mining as a potential solution for you and you want some crazy Brit to come and do some content and storytelling and even potential business, you just let me know. And uh, yeah, I’ll leave it from there. Hope you enjoyed this video and I will see you in the next one. Goodbye.

Why Finance Fumbles Bitcoin: Commodity Truth Revealed | Hashpower Academy

Why Finance Fumbles Bitcoin: Commodity Truth Revealed | Hashpower Academy



Wall Street’s missing the Bitcoin boat! I’m calling out the finance industry’s knowledge gap—BTC isn’t just a digital asset or USD ticker; it’s a commodity with cycles like oil or gold. Forget price hype—Bitcoin’s real pulse is its BTC/kWh exchange rate, the network’s average production cost. I break it down: halvings slash miners’ BTC earnings, doubling production costs (same energy bill, half the reward). Take 2020’s COVID crash—BTC tanked to $4k (production floor), then soared to $8k (new floor). Why? Price frontruns halving-driven cost shifts! From MSTR’s bold bets to Jack Mallers’ Lightning vision, finance pros need this. Watch now—ditch the USD lens, master BTC’s commodity game, and outsmart the next cycle!

there and welcome to the hash power academy fun fact of the 100% of the world barely 1% have probably got into Bitcoin now if you zoom into that 1% and zoom it out barely 1% of that 1% are into Bitcoin mining and it is to say that if you look back in history the pioneers if you look today the pioneers and if you look into tomorrow the pioneers of the future tend to be the rewarded the most but they take the most upside risk so the first thing to understand about the progressional steps into Bitcoin mining is that mining is the uh the forefront of energy and technology innovation and it takes no prisoners but if you are here to learn that is always going to be the first stage because you can make these two progressional steps less painful in terms of finance your time and energy if you learn all of the absolute fundamentals and everything that can go wrong that’s the key thing if you learn what can go wrong you can understand and move through what’s going right so let’s dive into this very interesting video but first let me introduce myself hello there and welcome to the Hash Power Academy my name is Jake Scandlin i’m the lead educator here and this is a place for you to delve into anything and everything to do with Bitcoin and its underlying network of technologies and commodities you can learn everything to do with how we produce energy transfer it over time how we produce compute power and transfer it over time and how we produce Bitcoin blocks and you can guess the last one last but not least how we produce Bitcoin and transfer it over time all these different components are all interconnected through maths and physics to make the finance component last now let’s dive in so the three progressional steps into Bitcoin mining boil down to what I like to call learn earn and scale before you make the painful mistakes here and here you better learn the basics now the most key important thing is you need to start small start with something that allows you to understand how it all connects together this little guy allows me to understand how much energy it consumes how much hash rate that it produces and how much that earns in terms of a quantity of Bitcoin representative to the entire network i’m going to put it over there so uh the first thing to understand is you are not buying a mini miner to make a profit this is an educational tool and yes they are one chip with a load of components so they are more expensive versus hundreds of chips with fewer components shall we say and so what you need to understand that you are buying something to learn and what you’ll understand is okay I plug it in I consume electricity it produces hash rate ah I need to connect it to the Wi-Fi and connect that to either a pool or solo mining so let’s write pool a mining pool or you are taking the risk of going solo now the problem with going solo is unless you find a block you are not going to earn any bitcoin and the reason for this is well right now if you spent $100 million uh at scale and divided that by $20 per terash you would have 500 no sorry you would have 5 million terraash now the network is $800 million so divide 5 million divided by 800 million and then multiply it by your 144 opportunities per day to find a block you will get an answer of 0.9 so to find barely one block per day you need a hundred million dollars worth of mining hardware so the chances of getting one in a day very very expensive very slim to none in a week month year decade thousands of years even the the chance to find a block with a bit is very very low so the alternative to playing the game of lottery because that’s what it is which is fine you do that the other chance is to use a layer two for payouts now the reason why you would want to use a layer 2 is because a mini miner is going to earn such a small quantity of Bitcoin relative to anything at scale that you would want to well still be paid out but here’s the thing that a lot of the uh the layer one payout I’m going to just use or uh red orange layer one payouts they require you to earn relatively 100 $200 $300 worth of Bitcoin at this moment in time and with a mini miner you were not going to earn that much so the key takeaway here for this entire entire learn chain and everything on hashp power academy YouTube is delving into all these different pieces is you are interconnecting and learning about okay it consumes energy to produce compute to produce bitcoin and I can be paid out or I can play the lottery of trying to find a a block of 3.2 to Bitcoin all the option the optionality is run it into a pool and connect it to a pool that has lightning payouts such as brains uh it goes off to Antpool but anyway that’s a topic for another day um and then when we’re looking at the earn side of things this is this is key and fundamental you could have gone through stage one and bought a mini minor but now you’re looking at the economics this is the important part everything to do with here is learning the technicals with the stage two we’re going into the financials and then with this you’re going more into the electricals so with this you’re understanding okay I want to economically mine which is I want to understand a quantity of bitcoin I could have purchased versus a terraash for example okay how much bitcoin do I want it to earn i want it to earn more uh bitcoin than I could have just purchased in the first place so economic mining is buying the power cheap and producing uh the amount of bitcoin per kilowatt in greater quantity so I can recommend if if your energy is less than 7 cent you have the potential to self mine but you would want to get an efficient machine a low jewels per terahash if you’ve got power at home greater than seven cents it hosting hosting is your your opportunity there but the key thing with with hosting or self let’s just write these in self you might have a solar setup at home here’s the thing this is going to be uh this is going to have different optionalities in all different places but it’s truly down to you the individual if you have your own solar setup already you’ve got excess power and I do invite you if you have a battery solar or net metering setup with the grid anywhere that you have excess electricity available to you mining is an opportunity to visualize that kilowatt hour as a quantity of money an ability to store the money in excess so self or hosted right now the next piece of this is um the type of payouts so this is going to be out of scope for this video but mining pools have different payout types so you’re understanding the economics of if you’ve got cheap power at home yes you could selfmine but the sensible thing is most people don’t have access to power and that’s why most people don’t get into mining and so if you have a hosted setup well you almost also have the option to probably decide which uh payout method you’re going to use the typical ones are F PPP yeah I always have to remember these fps is this is what the network is earning and the mining pool is just paying you on those theoretical profits so it’s not what the actual pool finds itself in terms of blocks and then distributing out to those miners connecting to their pool but actually just what the network is earning and there’s some issues with oh if fees spike and your pool captures those fees but pays you what the network earned which wasn’t that fee average then you’re missing out in certain places but again this is out of scope for this video and the other one would be say P LNS again out of scope this is the pool finds a block distributes that block in layman’s terms but the overall approach here is this is you’re trying to understand the basics here of I’m consuming energy running it through my computer i paid this amount which is not great but it’s an educational tool i could so solo mine and lottery mine or run it into a pool connecting to the pool and getting payouts on layer 2 lightning and then with with a machine you’re looking at the electrical decision under sends seven cents or six cent 5 cent if you’ve got a less efficient machine available to buy and if your if your energy at home is more than seven cent which the majority of people it will yeah it’s uh hosting is your opportunity and then with the price of the machine this is the thing let’s say you bought one a one terraash uh machine for $200 but what if you bought a 200 terraash machine for $20 combine that together you spend a total amount of 200 time 20 that’s $4,000 plus the $200 for this so a total spend with one machine and one Bitax Mini miner you’ve spent two $4,200 and the total amount of hash rate you’ve got is one plus 200 so you do your $4,200 divided by 201 and your average your dollar per terahash average when you’ve gone from this step to that step which is one machine you’ve lowered the cost of this machine by 90% almost by being by lowering it to $20.89 per terahash so yeah just by taking that step from buying a mini miner to buying a whole machine at $20 a terraash you’ve lowered your average price total in in total per terahash to $20.89 $89 per terahash so that’s just a way to move from the oh I pay overpaid per terahash to I’ve lowered it by by going into the financial aspects so just to recap you’re either mining at home because you’ve got cheap power or you’ve got expensive power obviously your only option is host one machine as this example but typical hosting setups yes there’s platforms to buy one machine but with with these computers the more you buy in bulk you’re going to get better prices and so yeah there’s there’s typical sites that’ll offer minimums of you know 10 machine purchase or even 100 machine or even a one megawatt minimum but we’ll uh we’ll go through that in a second your different payout options at the mining pool so you’re sending and exporting your energy onto the internet and you can be paid out on the layer one side of things a couple of transactions per per month there’s different pools that define uh you want to be paid in a certain amount of time uh like say once a month or once a week um or in certain quantity a certain quantity is mined and then they pay it out to which wallet of choosing and typically just about every pool doesn’t charge you for fees so you can be accumulating Bitcoin without fees through the electricity bill that’s another interesting angle now this is where it all gets interesting you you’ve learned the technicals of how it all connects together you’ve learned the financials of how the input cost and output Bitcoin and the machine in the middle that you’re paying off over time and you want to obviously get a cheap uh dollar per terahash rate but the the pricing of machines the less efficient they are the less Bitcoin per kilowatt they earn they’ll be cheaper the more expensive machines the more Bitcoin per kilowatt they produce but you’ve still got to think of that input cost output Bitcoin your profit and how many how many cycles of uh earning profit is it going to take to pay that machine off in in time your payback period so to speak and if you get that far you’ve learned lots and most people will probably just make it to this stage of maybe one machine or a couple of machines or running them at home using it as an electric heater to heat your house or a pool or something like that there’s all different things that can take a lot of time and a lot of interesting directions that you can go with the earn side of this um but this is where it gets interesting the scale how big can this scale well um the basic parts and I think they get more expensive as they go down basically is you could essentially getting those payouts to your own hardware wallet wallet you’re getting payout pays out getting payouts to your own hardware wallet so you’re you’re sovereign in your private key so to speakish um your own node so that’s the data side of things if you are solo mining at this scale which we’ll discuss um you’re going to be storing the data solo mining requires you essentially to store that entire transaction file so this is where you’re delving into nodes so you could be having your own wallet to store the the data money storing the data which verifies your data money and adding those Bitcoin blocks which is you’ve you’re producing enough compute at enough scale to potentially add Bitcoin blocks to the chain in relative periods of time that align to your energy bill because you’ve got to think of this as input energy bill output Bitcoin if you lottery mine one of these you’ll just about never mine a block with this it would take forever but you’d essentially be just constantly paying an energy bill with no economic return this is why we have mining pools and their different payout options and different payout uh levels in in terms of the chain and in terms of the Bitcoin side of things yeah this is uh well hang on I’m going to write solo here and data here i’ve written this the wrong way around so solo node so everything to do with the data um that’s that’s the most important aspect here if you’re verifying uh your transactions your trades your issuance all these sorts of things with your own node your own information and you could be solo mining but this is where it gets interesting because this is more focused on the uh compute side of things that if you’re scaling from hosted to I just want to continue to host there is benefits to scaled hosting and these sorts of benefits are demand response when you’re when you have enough mining machines uh over say one megawatt of energy consumption a thousand kilowatts that’s when you can be exploring the option of doing demand response which is which I’ve discussed on this channel as that opportunity that you have the bitcoin price your production cost and the electrical grid rate sort of in the middle and when the energy price goes above the rate of revenue you you switch off and sell power or underclock and when the price of energy drops below your contractual rate of uh u electricity dollars per kilowatt or megawatt uh when when your when the energy price drops below or goes negative because there’s a load of wind a load of solar but no one’s using power or the prices go negative you will be paid to consume the power on top of that revenue rate of Bitcoin per kilowatt hour and so demand response is is the other side of the trade you’ve got buying energy to produce Bitcoin and then demand response is that the hurdle for this is to be producing about a megawatt where is demand response so demand response is being able to energy trade so with Bitcoin you’re sort of doing financial trade of consume energy in fiat and pay out in Bitcoin and energy trading is you’re selling energy to buy Bitcoin because you can sell the energy in a greater quantity u sorry you can sell the energy to produce or earn or buy a greater quantity of Bitcoin um it’s the other way round and the other side of that is well yeah this is this is the option of being on the grid grid power the other option and this is the fully stacked vertical option is you’re producing your own power could be as small as a single solar panel battery if you want uh cons producing that excess energy running it into your own machine producing your own bitcoin storing that information in your own node and that money in your own wallet that is you vertically integrated from watts to sats so demand response is the grid side but what would be the production side i think it should be micro grids the long-term path is if you producing your own power why not have a community built around that where you are selling power at the rate in which you can turn that energy into Bitcoin so that’s electricity defined on a Bitcoin unit of account and as we scale all different sorts of um micro grids that consume Bitcoin um consume Bitcoin well yes that’s correct the micro grids that uh consume energy to produce compute to produce Bitcoin that defines a price for those kilowatt hours why would that miner want to switch the machine off to sell the power to his local micro grid he would sell it at the rate in which he can earn the quantity of Bitcoin per kilowatt and the more he sells the power the the more efficient the machine gets so he can earn at that even higher rate so the miner is incentivized to earn even more Bitcoin by providing energy abundance at that local level that is so powerful to me but the main thing here is produce your own energy produce your own electricity sell it locally at the rate of revenue of Bitcoin and then that choice between uh using the grid demand response hosting the machines potentially uh that’s a minimum of about a megawatt say 50 pahash which is 50,000 terraash divide it all down that’s 20 jewels per terahash efficiency roughly and so the other option is you’re producing your own power maybe building out your own micro grid uh citadel mini uh off-grid community uh you’re self mining you’re running your own machines and you’re getting these uh machines at a cheaper price this is the other thing this would be the this would be spot buying buying your machine spot or a hardware reseller this is you’re buying at the scale of buying directly from manufacturer which can be uh futures and this is important uh if you’re continually buying over time because if you buy a machine and it’s to be delivered in five six months and you lock in a certain price per terahash let’s say 14 let’s say over the six months that you’re waiting to get your machines because you’re still building out your energy production side and your land and your whatever else uh let’s say the price of machines dropped to $10 a terraash there are manufacturers such as Bitmain that will uh essentially let you hedge the downside price of machine devaluation and they will give you credits essentially to buy more machines from them of course um but it it gives you a hedge if you know you’re going to continually buy more machines into the future you have you have that opportunity to to obviously lock in downside risk mitigation um yeah that’s that’s the overall gist you that might have been a little bit too much but oh well so it’s you produce your own energy run it through your own machine produce some compute connect it to a mining pool or solo mine and pay out in the layer two then you shift to the economics of buying a machine at a great enough volume of hash rate to get that price down earn say you know a decent amount decent payout on the layer 1 blockchain without fees typically and that decision is typically decided by your electrical cost at home or you don’t want to run the machines at home we want to obfiscate the electrical and technical aspects and just put the finance side up which is hosting and then if you want to scale that to producing your own power running your own micro grid to source machines at volume or demand response trade on the grid get uh hedging the downside risk of buying those machines and at a lower price with wholesale purchases and that opportunity to either solo mine or run into a pool and the different options of running your own nodes securing and verifying your transactions and storing that bitcoin in your own wallet uh it can be as optional as optional and simple as something at home that’s small or as big as a city and a uh multi- grid multi- multi micro grids all around the world but they’re all priced at the same quantity of Bitcoin per kilowatt hour i think that’s going to be an amazing future where inefficiencies of trade and logistics are reduced to the point where goods and services trade and money transfers through the internet in the opposite direction thank you for listening i hope this was a very insightful video uh if you have questions drop them down below if you want to get a mini miner I think I have a link in the description of course and if you want to get into hosted mining drop me a call drop me a call drop me a message or an email and I will um address the scale of investment that you’re looking for at those sorts of quantities and give you some form of insight um into what’s available but again not financial advice i’m not a financial adviser and if you want to build a Bitcoin citadel definitely drop me a message because I’m finding I’m finding people all around the world that seem to have this sort of dream in their minds of this energy abundant world and I think that’s what we should strive for because the cheaper energy gets the well everything just gets easier and more abundant and that combination of energy and technology allows us to just operate in a world that is just so much more advanced and progressive towards the future and all the parallels with AI and cloud computing as well thank you for listening i hope you enjoy and I’ll see you in the next one goodbye

🚨 Bitcoin’s Real Estate Takeover 🚨 Flood or Fortress?!? | Hashpower Academy

🚨 Bitcoin’s Real Estate Takeover 🚨 Flood or Fortress?!? | Hashpower Academy



House prices are spiraling out of reach—4x average salaries decades ago, now 8x! Older folks with homes dodged inflation’s bite, their real estate ballooning with the money supply’s relentless expansion. Meanwhile, young people stare at a property ladder with no first rung—locked out by nonstop asset inflation. What’s driving this? Real estate’s financialization: leverage piled high, mortgages amplifying every dollar printed, a house of cards that teetered in 2008’s crisis and still wobbles today. I dig into this mess—how banks and debt turned homes into speculative toys, leaving a generation behind while pensioners sit pretty.

But here’s the twist—what could crash this party? Picture this: average house prices dipping below 1 BTC. Could that spark a flood of investors ditching real estate for Bitcoin, the ultimate hedge? Or will Bitcoin flood into real estate instead—property owners using BTC as mortgage collateral to shield their homes from the risks of debt money? I break it down: why real estate’s leverage is a ticking bomb, how BTC could tip the scales, and what individuals with mortgages can do—swap fiat debt for BTC-backed loans? Diversify into sats? Watch to uncover the tipping point, protect your wealth, and see if Bitcoin’s about to rewrite the real estate game—or if houses will anchor BTC instead!

Video Transcript:

is Bitcoin going to flood into real estate in a financialized context of mortgages and collateral or are real estate investors and real estate investment trusts going to flood into Bitcoin selling everything and dumping the market or is it going to be a combination of the two a chaotic storm on the horizon with the debt money system of yesterday and the Bitcoin hard deflationary digital energy money of tomorrow This is going to be the topic of today’s video But first let’s reintroduce myself Hello there Welcome to the Hash Power Academy My name is Jake Scandlin I’m the lead educator here at the academy And this is a place for you to learn anything and everything about Bitcoin but also its underlying network of technologies and commodities We teach from a fundamentals first perspective delving into everything to do with energy Then compute Bitcoin mining which produces all the Bitcoin blocks of the blockchain which issues and distributes that full supply of 21 million fixed units of Bitcoin So the first place to start with this is I’m going to just show you the uh the average house price versus the average salary And I’ve used the UK as an example And as you can clearly see that year over year since uh 1970s particularly that’s an interesting uh moment in time to understand that our debt money well it was disconnected from gold so to speak and uh since that point the average ratio between the average salary per year versus the average house price went from four years to 5 years to 6 years to seven years you can get where I’m going with this to eight years Now what does that mean it means it takes more time for young people for example they have a housing crisis to afford property And those with the property they did well They escaped inflation The expansion of the money supply very much correlates with house prices And with a debt money system that has heavily financialized real estate and mortgages essentially are well if you have a 5% deposit on a house which is the 100% you’re 20x leveraged The price of the house can drop 5% and then you’re in trouble And uh that sort of uh that sort of situation happened in a particular moment of time such as 2008 where uh the bankers uh may have uh ruined a few things and uh the citizens paid for it That sounds great And uh basically these are all the issues of the debt money system But what we also want to understand is what a hard deflationary energybased currency of tomorrow will contribute to this For example the debt money system creates a circumstance where asset prices have to go up because as mentioned if uh the prices drop then people essentially default on their mortgages and that is a very serious societal problem And so the easy solution is to paper over the issues Now when it comes to this sort of asset inflation well where does it end um because you’ve got this tipping point of wealthy people with lots of properties in in an investment portfolio context where one house is a necessity You want to live somewhere Everyone does want to live somewhere And on the other side of that you’ve got young people and the concern of regulators Why are all these young people taking risk high risk with things like Bitcoin well it’s because they see the very same assets that their parents and grandparents purchased Oh I got my house in my 20ies with a couple of pay packets It’s like uh yeah we need to what save for an entire decade And by the time we’ve saved for a decade um the cost of the house is now 15 years for a deposit Uh yeah that’s the problem And so what we need to do is wipe the slate slate clean and understand some of the tipping points with a form of hard deflationary energy money that is entering uh well just about every part of the financial world and every part of the energy sector Bitcoin is on and off every electrical grid across the planet expanding energy and compute in a fixed supply of 21 million units So continual increase in purchasing power And so if we give this a real estate context let’s say right now that it’s about four four bitcoin for one property where do you think the tipping point will be where do you think that that that mindset of okay I’ve got all these properties and on a bitcoin unit of account they are continually declining That the value of a house um in a quantity of bitcoin continually decreases For example there are people that they had hundreds or thousands of Bitcoin early early on and still made in dollar terms millions of dollars for it And so they sold some they sold hundred or a thousand Bitcoin to buy a house And years later they may have sold it but uh they didn’t get 100 or,000 Bitcoin back They got like four And uh it makes you think oh well uh I should have just kept all my thousands of Bitcoin But I think over time we’re going to have this continual rollover of people uh in society investing on spending their Bitcoin on their necessities versus their wants Why own a portfolio of five homes um when you live in one and four others are essentially land banking and that’s what the fiat money system has created in society is um people trying to escape inflation by holding assets assets that other people may want to use as a necessity versus an investment And if uh you own a bunch of multif family homes um there’s an ethical concern there that there’s other people that want that ownership psychology of owning their own place And if there’s an artificial scarcity of properties all being owned by a select few that can create societal problems I’m not saying it’s necessarily bad because if you have the capital to buy it it’s yours That’s that’s our that’s our ownership structure in society And they say possession is 9/10en of the law So I believe that the key tipping point is when the average house price is under one bitcoin I just think uh there’s there’s people that have a quantity psychology that say “Oh Bitcoin’s too expensive I can’t buy a whole one.” You can buy fractional It goes down to eight decimals of of the quantity that you can purchase But I believe that tipping point that when one bitcoin is uh the average house price is less than one bitcoin I think that’s going to open the eyes of a lot of investors And does that create some form of selling event not today not tomorrow but progressively over time where house prices continually drop because there is this flood of other markets and other investments being sold to go into Bitcoin And so if we give this the examples of today right now I think in pounds it’s about 200 to 300,000 uh per house average house price And in dollars that’s like 400 to 500k 500k So yeah if Bitcoin reaches these sorts of levels in dollar terms and we see that tipping point of the average house price at a particular moment in time crossing below the average uh stat statistics published by the government shall we say that the average house price is now less than one whole bitcoin that has to that has to um make someone’s eyes open and it would be a serious tipping event But the other side of that is if there’s other people with mortgages that are leveraged you know if your whatever whatever your debt is versus the value of the house if the value of the houses continually drop to their utility value which is essentially what’s probably going to happen if there’s this flood towards Bitcoin is the debt money system collapses prices back down to their utility value And the utility value of a house is not the current price of the houses at the moment And so that’s a concern So how do we address that concern while still having a debt money system well this is where it gets interesting because right now there’s all different people trying to financialize Bitcoin in the context of real estate So not just uh this flood of money coming from real estate and selling houses into Bitcoin but how Bitcoin could be part of people’s mortgages So that your collateral position is essentially whatever your debt is Whatever your debt is let’s just do a negative there You’ve got maybe this potential Let’s I don’t know what the debt will be Let’s just say 80% you’ve paid off some of it And the value of your house starts at the value of your house starts at um let’s just do a little picture The value of your house starts at the 100% in reference to the 80% you’ve paid off Um but what if house prices drop 20% you’re in serious problems Yes you’re continually paying this off with interest but what if what if a small chunk of Bitcoin was added that’s the that’s the interesting thing because we’re we’re we’re comparing this tipping event where the the the price of Bitcoin in dollar terms because we have to do a dollar-based unit of account with this If the dollar price of Bitcoin is shooting up because there is this flood of money coming uh out of real estate into Bitcoin and demonetizing these sorts of assets one of the healthiest things for individuals to protect themselves uh from the risk of the the collapse of the debt money system in the context of uh investors flooding out of an asset class If you are in that asset class with some form of debt associated to those assets then Bitcoin might just be that hedge essentially against the the the decline of asset of house prices So if house prices dropped uh I’m just going to draw it all out now If house prices dropped but the Bitcoin and your collateral increased it’s essentially a hedge against uh the deflationary uh environment that you’re in that you’ve got this hard hard asset and that that just might help Um real estate isn’t exactly my specialty but I’d love people to dive into the comments with these sorts of perspectives But yeah having having collateral that is a portfolio essentially of different things that just might make the difference Um but what’s the pristine collateral it’s Bitcoin It has its volatility in dollar terms as well So any form of debt that you would have you’d be measuring the dollar value of the Bitcoin which is volatile in space but preserves value over time But I think I think mortgages with Bitcoin are probably one of the best things that could be done and potentially it lowers interest rates as well as it represents itself um in a lower you’re adding collateral versus your debt So you should effectively have um lower risk premiums But we will see I think I’m going to stop it there But yeah I’m very interested to see multiple different assets um drop below one whole Bitcoin Assets of all different size and scale Uh there’s also the one of the market cap of when it outpaces gold and all the other top 10 um assets uh in ranking Yeah Thank you for listening Hope you enjoy Uh go into the comments if there’s anything I’ve missed or not said correctly Please correct me because we’re all trying to learn here So yeah thank you for listening Hope you enjoy Goodbye

Video Transcript:

hello there and welcome to the hash power academy today I have an interesting video for you to look at the five logarithmic steps these objective milestones 10xing each time to reach one whole bitcoin that is starting with acquiring one 10,000th of a bitcoin then a thousandth of a bitcoin then a 100th of a bitcoinet and then one whole bitcoin now you’ve got to understand there’s two things to consider here that each step is going to take more time and this is because well as you’re going through these milestones Bitcoin is gaining value it’s a currency in fixed supply with energy and compute and dollars all expanding underneath it so when you have a currency with absolute scarcity you’re essentially uh defining a milestone at the top of a mountain that is continually getting steeper as you walk up and so what you have to measure and this video I hope is relevant whether you watch this today as I post it or in 10 years or in a 100 years or even a thousand years that your relativity of yourself as an individual today and what you can earn with your time and energy or your other assets well they’re all going to have a quantifiable amount of money but that is going to diminish over time because Bitcoin is a deflationary energy currency and so it respects and preserves its time and energy and appreciates over time but well your particular moment in time it’s going to have a particular value an exchange rate and so you are objectively uh participating in the unit bias game of going I want one whole bitcoin but that is going to just get harder or in dollars more expensive over time and so I’m just going to take you through some progressional steps as to how you can get to one whole bitcoin if that’s if that’s your goal um or somewhere along the way decide that you’re happy with the amount that you have and the other piece of this to think about is you have to look through the money because you have to think of it like this your income your time and energy into a quantity of dollars or pounds or euros or whatever it is um that’s not the that’s not the first that’s just the first step the second step is well when you go to spend it it seems to buy you less over time and so money is that medium of exchange your time and energy stored in something and it just seems to disappear by the time you reach the point of buying goods and services and so when you think about the quantity of Bitcoin that you want think about the experiences and time and energy that you want to spend in life and that money affording you that ability to do so because time is essentially the scarcest currency that we do have not the Bitcoin but nevertheless let’s go through these stages so different people in the world we all have different ability to access and generate income so sensibly $8 might be a really important milestone to one person but a one-off purchase to another or person living in New York City may spend $800 very quickly but to someone else in the world that’s an entire year’s worth of income or even less and and what this means is that this these goals are going to be specific to each individual person and their ability to locally access um well energy energy resources in monetary form so the first goal is layer two and the reason why I say layer two is you need to be considering the fact that eight or $80 worth of Bitcoin is very very small and this could be essentially a fee that’s that’s the cost of a fee so you want to be using something like the lightning network and being paid on the lightning network just to begin with uh there is a discussion within within that is can we actually be self-s sovereign with uh layer 1 block space getting more and more expensive well there’s the aspects of these layer 2s having quite an extensive amount of decentralization but it’s a it’s an ongoing debate shall we say and the first things here be to to achieve these two steps is is to learn about opening a wallet uh a lightning wallet for example and and learning that’s the key one so we’re going to just write learn learn and acquire so you’re going to have to generate a wallet secure the the 12 words or the 24 words or the private key whichever component that that is provided and secure that small amount of Bitcoin or jump straight to the 80 or $800 Bitcoin part and the layer 2 part is most important because um it’s it’s going to be that layer that’s more for micro payments and small amounts of Bitcoin and so you really want to be focusing on fee optimization with this as well and the second amount of $80 jumping jumping to 1,000th of a bitcoin you could potentially uh use your skills your knowledge and provide it online if you have access to the internet you have the ability to earn money but you’ve got to find it you’ve got to have that curiosity to go out and solve someone’s problem be productive in society and and and see what someone will pay you oh can I pay you in uh can can you pay me in Bitcoin do the work and and settle set settle that internet trade with internet money so to speak now this is the next one $800 or 0.0.1 Bitcoin as of now um this this one’s more about saving in Bitcoin and what I mean by saving is over time um 800 Bitcoin 800 Bitcoin $800 worth of Bitcoin or 0.0.1 not one um that’s going to be something that you accumulate over time so it’s it’s saving in Bitcoin you have your income you have your expenses i hope they’re less than your income and that chunk that’s you’re left over with that’s your your savings what percentage of that you choose to save in Bitcoin should be matching your confidence level if you’re 100% about Bitcoin you could use 100% not financial advice it’s up to you if you’re 50% confidence about Bitcoin maybe use 50% of your savings is always dealing with your expenses lowering your expenses increasing your income and widening that margin but the key thing here as well is you’ve got to measure the amount of blocks between these steps how long in time does it take because remember when you measure when you measure your achievements through these milestones in time you make it individual to you because yes Michael sailor’s buying the next thousand bitcoin 10,000 bitcoin whatever whatever crazy amount others are doing you’re not them we are all to individuals so it’s all about your individual experience and accumulation for yourself because the whole thing about bitcoin is it respects and preserves the time and energy that you put in to acquiring it accumulating it because this fixed supply of 21 million has more energy and compute expanding underneath it so while dollars uh in quantity form buy you less over time Bitcoin affords you more over time so time is always that key component here it’s volatility in it’s volatile in space but uh value preservation in time so what’s the amount of time and we can measure it in blocks between your your your jumps between these milestones and so that next milestone you’re getting from 0.01 bitcoin to 0.1 100th to one/10enth these are really great steps and you should be really proud if you get through these these stages so this one how long did it take you and remember these these steps presumably are going to take longer and longer so if you get to later on in your life and you understand okay this point in the future where 0.1 bitcoin buys you a house um you know this amount of time may this might be 10 years 20 years and if you’re later in your life you go okay that’s not a reasonable goal so having that time measurement in blocks allows you to just understand uh where it’s time to not retire but spend what you have and um and provide it to your your generational your your bloodline um saving yes now the interesting thing about this moment this current sort of value of say $8,000 worth of Bitcoin this is when you should start looking at um the layer one let’s write it in red layer one is uh 800800 800 to $8,000 worth of Bitcoin these sorts of quantities you should be considering this one as well layer one that’s where you can justify spending a bit of it to to store it in in a layer one wallet and and the whole process here is I also recommend you know hardware hardware wallet and you’ve got substantial enough amount of Bitcoin to you should probably be running a node at this point but the al the al the most important piece here that final jump that final milestone between 0.1 and one whole bitcoin um but if if you are just working and saving through life to to to make this jump still we don’t know how long this is going to take and and there could be there’s there’s going to be a slippage what if what if by the time that you get to 0.1 and you’ve got $80,000 you know you’ve now got $80,000 and uh and now a Bitcoin is worth $800,000 as to how long it takes to acquire one whole Bitcoin measure it in time and and the 800,000 goal again it’s not about the quantity that you have it’s about what you want to do with it your individual dreams experiences goals targets business that you want to build maybe you want to build a mining farm I don’t know an off-grid community a citadel um there’s all these sorts of directions but if you can get yourself to one whole Bitcoin you’re going to know wealth and I say wealth as in the ability to afford yourself time in life so that you can explore all the passions and creativity and all of the different things that you want to do in life for example I love to travel i I just want to see the world see all different countries cultures experiences food you name it and um it’s going to cost a lot of money so uh I better start educating lots more people and another piece here about this the um the management of that money we’ve gone from layer two because it’s a small amount of Bitcoin so you don’t want to be paying a high fee to okay I’ve now started accumulating a quantity that justifies securing it say in a hardware wallet um or just store it in a you know store the private key or the words in a piece of metal and whatever your your magical security system is once you start own owning a significant quantity of Bitcoin uh maybe distribute it into several different wallets and and it’s not putting all your eggs in one basket but actually putting your eggs in the same basket but in different places so to speak and uh maybe some multi-IG multi-IG let’s write that in which is uh instead of one private key being able to move the Bitcoin because that’s that’s the power of your private key is the ability to move the Bitcoin if anyone has that access to your key they can move your Bitcoin the power of the private key is the information of it its ability to move the Bitcoin so multi- signature setups is essentially having uh two out of three or four or five or however many different uh private keys that are required to uh all agree to move that same bitcoin and that just provides you security whether you have particular locations or some some other setup or using custodians and banks of Bitcoin banks in the future it’s all down to your uh your wants and needs and desires and risk tolerance and trust if if you do choose to trust other people with securing your money that’s your choice um people are all going to be different and the key thing here is measure these milestones in time not in a quantity of dollars even the quantity of Bitcoin itself is not an objective goal it’s how much time these take uh for you to to to make these jumps let’s write this in multi- sig multi- signature multiple different requirements to uh access the same money this isn’t really a particularly uh niche educational video it’s more just an abstract um progressional progressional video as to how you can preserve your time and energy in a quantity of money and allow you to live the best life that you want to live thank you for listening i hope you enjoy and I’ll see you in the next one goodbye

Video Transcript:

everything trends to zero against Bitcoin except one particular thing What do you think that is well this is going to be the topic of today’s video where we’re going to look at essentially the measurement and quantity of Bitcoin uh to purchase a house stocks fiat currency and the mystery one over here And and basically the reason why this is important is because um right now everyone has their fiat goggles on that you need to remove the dollar measuring stick from your mind because right now that the economy is a bunch of carpenters with a warped measuring stick blaming each other for bad design and uh that that’s the most boiled way to understand all the societal problems of pointing the finger at everything and anyone Um maybe the measuring stick is broken That might be the problem And so what we can look at first is a little interesting insight to there’s a lot of people that made a good amount of money early on with Bitcoin Let’s say they spent early early on they spent a thousand Bitcoin or 100 Bitcoin on buying a property a relatively normal property and they’re happy A house purchase is a necessity if you’re raising a family and you want comfort and ownership I mean the ownership goes back to a government So whether that’s true ownership who knows and basically all these sorts of things where you buy a house for a thousand bitcoin from years ago and then eventually they sell it and go do you know what the one thing I want to hold and benchmark my wealth in is a quantity of bitcoin So they sell it back into bitcoin and now they have only 10% of the original bitcoin in quantity than what they had in the first place And when you benchmark anything to Bitcoin it just continually trends down over time And this is because well Bitcoin is the best performing asset of the decade in reference to stocks So if you compare any stock to Bitcoin it’s going down If you compare any of the other alternative digital assets they’re all going down against Bitcoin And even the top ones like Ethereum and XRP and when I say top ones the the ones that are below Bitcoin they still haven’t made uh new all-time highs against Bitcoin If you look at the Bitcoin to one of these other trading pair uh for for several years and so you get these little hopeful spikes but I’m sorry I don’t there’s no fundamental value And that’s the key thing here If you are new here basically at the hash power academy we teach Bitcoin from the fundamentals first That is going through the energy sector the compute Bitcoin mining aspects and how that produces Bitcoin blocks and issues that full supply of 21 million Bitcoin and that fixed supply unit that absolute scarcity that of engineered money essentially a database of units with a cost to produce These are the most fundamental things as to why Bitcoin is outperforming everyone else because there is continually more energy needed in society There’s continually more computers The difficulty adjustment and network hash rate continually increasing So you got this energy and compute expansion under a planetary scale information system that’s decentralized all around the world Yeah that has true fundamental value And that vertical integration and circular integration with the electrical grids is exactly what we need in society in the 21st century Now so what do you think is the one thing and the one thing only on a Bitcoin unit of account that outperforms Bitcoin which is relevant to today and going into tomorrow what do you think it is well you can hold Bitcoin over time and that is your ownership of a quantity of timeless monetary units or you can accumulate Bitcoin in of itself as a yield Hash power Bitcoin mining is the one thing that can have the potential to outperform Bitcoin if you have efficiency This is most important Efficiency is the name of the game And most importantly even mining machines as the asset itself is trending to zero against Bitcoin But Bitcoin miners are the only ones that can produce Bitcoin So when you combine the asset with the yield you have the potential to outperform Bitcoin over time But you need to understand that mining is an accumulation a yield production of Bitcoin And over time that does diminish So this isn’t a guarantee You need efficiency and good access to power And I do believe that in the future the individual the individual opportunity to mine Bitcoin is going to be at that local level where people vertically integrate their ability to produce their own power run even old mining machines if they have no quote unquote running cost of power if they’ve already purchased the upfront um solar or wind or what whatever it is and those mining machines producing heat for their property locally and that connection to the internet Even if you want to live in the middle of nowhere off-rid I’m sure you want an internet connection or not It’s all up to you This the whole point about Bitcoin is there’s optionality and choice You could just hold Bitcoin and do not not participate in any of this You could run your own nodes store your own blocks You want to be the the the determinator of your own destiny Uh you want some right access that is to produce some compute run a computer and that computer creating heat to keep your house warm And that final piece to integrate all six pieces is to produce your own energy And when people are vertically integrated from energy uh from watts to sats so to speak I believe that is the path where even if the economics of mining were to collapse we’re all we’re all able to produce our own energy produce our own money and trade and transact globally And the best part of this is you could just remove the whole Bitcoin part entirely and go “Oh uh there’s a solar storm The magnet magnetic poles have flipped I don’t care what crazy event that you apply at it.” If you’ve got your own living space where you produce your own energy and can produce your own heat and yes you were connected to money you remove the Bitcoin part and you’re you’re still self sustaining and you have access to goods services resources that you can trade with each other That’s going a bit off the deep end but basically Bitcoin mining is essentially that opportunity to accumulate a greater quantity of Bitcoin over time and with efficiency you can outperform Bitcoin that is the only true fundamental uh intrinsic source to outperform Bitcoin That the participants that add value to the network add more hash rate and energy into the system those are going to be the people that are rewarded with the most Bitcoin because as we all trade and transact Bitcoin we’re paying fees and those fees are being distributed to these people in the network And so essentially Bitcoin over time is this continual redistribution system of you want to trade and transact that information has to be stored somewhere We don’t want one particular person with all the control of that data storage of information money and so it has to be distributed all around the world And that’s why Bitcoin has an energy cost to produce because it forces the decentralization of Bitcoin And so yeah the only thing that can outperform Bitcoin over time and has the potential to be outperform it as a benchmark is to well add energy and compute to the network in an efficient way Thank you for listening I hope you enjoy Um this uh might have been obvious to some people but others might be like “Oh I thought you were going to tell me some random other asset.” No it it’s be efficient be productive and the network rewards you That’s it That is the most timeless quote that you can you can take with you into life If you want more Bitcoin you need to add value to the network Thank you for listening Hope you enjoy Goodbye

Bitcoin is an ENERGY Currency with Electron Elasticity?!? | Hashpower Academy

Bitcoin is an ENERGY Currency with Electron Elasticity?!? | Hashpower Academy



Bitcoin’s not just money—it’s peer to peer ‘electronic’ cash, an energy currency with a twist! In this mind-bending dive, I unpack its electricity exchange rate and “electron elasticity”—how block rewards set the global energy price, while miners’ hardware efficiency dials in the local BTC/kWh. From watts to wealth, see how Bitcoin rewires economics with arbitrage and abundance. Watch now—discover why BTC’s the ultimate power play!

Video Transcript:

hello there and welcome to the hash power academy my name is Jake Scanland i’m the lead educator here at the academy and this is a place for you to learn anything and everything to do with Bitcoin from its fundamentals of energy computing and also the financial aspects of Bitcoin its blockchain and the context of its dollarized price we teach those components last but the overall gist of this video is to fundamentally and 100% prove that Bitcoin is an energy currency how and why and what is the dynamics between these well these worlds this physics and finance well we’re going to look at the electron elasticity of Bitcoin which if you are a physicist or an economist you have your own understanding of the word elasticity but guess what Bitcoin is the circular integration of these two worlds of energy and finance with well computing and cryptography in the middle and this is the piece that actually defines one side of the pricing system the the production side of how much kilowatt hours you can purchase with one bitcoin because in the early days Satoshi Nakamoto didn’t go into a platform and click buy and exchange dollars into Bitcoin did he in fact every single bitcoin has been produced through a quantity of kilowatts kilowatts to Bitcoin is the original exchange rate of Bitcoin and as more hash rate joins the network it raises the difficulty it raises the electrical cost to produce the bitcoin and every h havinging comes along and cuts the rate in which the bitcoin is distributed per energy cost and so you’ve got this continual repricing over time of more energy chasing fewer sats and that’s its pricing system if you’re holding bitcoin it represents a greater quantity of energy to produce your purchasing power so to speak and so this video is going to absolutely fundamentally prove that Bitcoin is an energy currency and what we’re going to look at is well the difficulty right now is 121.51 trillion that’s the difficulty the bar the bar has been set and this constant I’ll still explain in another video but that just boils down uh and multiplies out the difficulty to what the current average twoe looking back hash rate is for the whole network which is 869 xahash and when you multiply that again by 23 that converts the amount of exahash being produced at an average efficiency of 23 jewels per terraash into 20,000 megawatt now if you add an hour to that that’s obviously 20 million boil it down again kilowatt hours and if we look at the 144 blocks per day of 450 Bitcoin in total for the whole day that approximates six blocks at 18.75 this is because subsidy right now is 3.125 Bitcoin per block multiplied by six and you get your 18.75 now for easy numbers we are going to keep it in dollars but the most key thing as well to take away from this video is we can remove the dollar this is going to be the second commodity on a Bitcoin unit of account the first commodity is Bitcoin per virtual bite the very use of sending Bitcoin and paying a fee to store that information data in a block that is the first Bitcoin unit of account component of the network take a breath the second component is that exchange rate at to electricity how and why well because Bitcoin is mathematically connected to electricity because the miners are consuming a quantity of electricity their energy bill which has a dollarized price and they run it through a computer to produce hash rate and capture some of this Bitcoin and so their output quantity of Bitcoin is still mathematically connected in that chain and that has a dollarized price so yes right now we’re managing all these things in a world of dollar premiums but we can strip the dollar away from both components and have a quantity of energy traded to a quantity of Bitcoin and the takeaway for this video looking at the elasticity is well how does that price change because right now we can do the 1.5 million Bitcoin being earned per hour by the network and the 20 million kilowatt hours being consumed so this is the input cost and this is the output revenue rate of an hour and if we divide 1.5 million divided by 20 million you get 0.075 so 7.5 cent of Bitcoin per kilowatt hour so if a if a miner was mining at the large industrial scale and he was consuming energy to earn 7.5 cent a kilowatt hour if the price on the grid went to 10 cents why why would he mine why would he consume the power if he has the ability to demand response and sell the power back to the grid and so that pricing system is is already halfway there where the miners are halfway there in Bitcoin Bitcoin’s second unit of account commodity of electricity but what we’re going to show you here is so I’ve just shown you the the the current rate of the amount of Bitcoin earned per kilowatt hour what would happen if 10% more hash rate comes online what do you think would happen so we’re going to do plus 10% and that would obviously add an extra 20 uh sorry an extra 2 million kilowatt hours at this current revenue rate just keep scribbling these out and writing them back in what do you think would happen so the amount of Bitcoin being earned by the entire network um would get diminished on the producer side but what happens to the consumer side those holding Bitcoin that now your Bitcoin essentially represents an even greater quantity of energy to be exchanged at that rate but it’s not that rate anymore let’s in fact take the scenario that yes 10% more hash rate has come online well this price would be if I have it written down 10% more hash rate so there’s 20 that’ll be dividing the 1.5 million divided by 22 million that’s a smaller number which is where is it 0.068 0.0.68 so more hash rate chasing the fewer bitcoin which means more energy chasing that fewer bitcoin which means the rate the 0.068 068 means that the the the the amount of Bitcoin that an individual miner is earning per kilowatt hour has dropped which means that the price that the miner is willing to sell on the grid has dropped so let me just uh just shatter that theory that Bitcoin is going to take over the world and consume all energy no because the more hash rate that comes online it makes the energy cheaper for the miners to sell and they want to sell the energy because if the miner switches off even a portion of the machine’s energy use underclocking the machine it lowers the jewels per terahash which is increasing the efficiency which reprices his exchange rate for his remaining hash rate online which is to say that Bitcoin has a dynamic elastic pricing system to electricity and the miner will make more money by selling the power so his his computer justifies the capacity to be able to buy power in a contract because he can he has the ability to use the power to export it onto the internet but he will make more money by selling it p to back to the grid and so yeah if more hash rate comes online more miners plugging in using more of the world’s energy it makes the price of energy for consumers cheaper more abundant shall we say and let’s do it the other way around what happens if 10% of the network comes offline let’s say uh 10% of the network we’re we’re in this future world of Bitcoin’s unit of account economics everyone’s living in citadels and consuming power and sharing that power to each other based on their consumption of mining and that available energy on their local citadel grid well if uh 10% of that energy was sold because it’s consumed in the households and 10% of the hash rate came offline um in a twoe average what do you think the price of energy does then so the the system the the planetary system is being priced as less energy chasing fewer sats well what this does is it raises the price to buy the energy so there’s less of a supply of energy available to buy in the system because hash rate is essentially a representation of energy that’s available to be purchased this is what I’m trying to get out here of Bitcoin as an energy currency 08 3 when I first figured this out as a concept goosebumps blew my mind but yeah so when more hash rate comes online the price of energy for you to have to pay for that energy from miners in our Citadel grids of the future gets cheaper more supply of energy in the system more hash rate means more energy supply versus that that amount of uh the price the pricing system on the consumption side is the amount of subsidy and fees per block because that’s what the miner is comparing he’s comparing how much can I earn by exporting the energy to the internet to earn the Bitcoin consuming it how much can I earn selling it locally so the the the global price for energy is what Bitcoin sets through block rewards and this defines a price a price that a local person is willing to sell power in abundance and so yeah we’ve got this uh minus 10% so 10% of the network hash rate has switched off it raises the price for energy for you and so you’ve got this elasticity of an energy price of Bitcoin which is not static it’s dynamic and it’s dynamic to how much energy is available in the system represented as network hash rate because hash rate is just a a projection of the energy available in the system let’s do um the final one of saying well what happens if uh loads of fees rush into the uh consumption side people let’s just say it doubles if uh the amount of if the amount of um uh which number should we use 6 to8 let’s just say that this uh doubles this one doubles so it’s 37.5 bitcoin coin so in an hour miners think they have the potential to earn 37.5 Bitcoin which equals 3 million so now we do the 3 million divided by Which one should we do yeah 3 million divided by the 22 million kilowatt hours we’ve just dollarized to keep it easy how much do you think um how much do you think the the kilowatt hour exchange rate will be if more consumption is in the network miners are recognizing that they can earn more well or double so it’s essentially double this price um because I I’ve this figure I’m going to use it to this one in my numbers which is yeah double literally if if uh I’ll keep it simple whatever the hash rate is whatever the energy is underneath that if the block rewards were to double the energy price doubles which basically means you’ve got this interplay between block rewards defining the the the global price for energy and the miner’s local efficiency setting that that exchange rate price based on that global price so the two key components of this are the miner’s local efficiency and the global price and I see places like um Indonesia anywhere that they have um locationbased limitations that I’m sure all the different thousands of islands they have some form of ability to produce power that now there is the potential that if if there was mining machines on all the little islands consuming energy available on the particular islands it doesn’t make any sense to run power lines between all the islands but if they all consume energy at a global rate they have a global they have a global wireless defined price for energy but it’s all u available at the local level and this is the other thing about Bitcoin mining is this computer that has a global price of energy defined and a justified consumer which justifies the buildout of more production because you’ve got this chicken and egg issue it’s like uh anywhere that you want to build out more energy production uh well you need a consumer if you want if you want to spend the millions to build out energy production you need something that consumes the energy a buyer once one this enterprise costs a lot of money produces a lot of energy this one well still costs a lot of money but converts energy into money and so you’ve got this this duopoly of the energy production side where if you want to build out more civilizational infrastructure in your country it has the ability to have two options of to export that energy locally or globally and all of these pieces create this amazing future where well the more hash rate comes online the more uh purchasing power your Bitcoin has and that this is this is beyond the dollar world because as I said at the start that these are mathematically connected so one of the struggles with trying to understand how we price things in bitcoin if if a quantity of bitcoin is already accounted through mathematics and physics and cryptography to a quantity of electricity the pricing system is already naturally there and what this does is well now you’ve got say electricity priced in Bitcoin well now you can delve into accounting carbon credits on a Bitcoin unit of account you could price oil on a Bitcoin unit of account you could price any other derivation of um producing energy because there’s multiple different layers that you can put underneath electricity and other technology components to produce it i think I’m going to stop there it’s probably a bit of a weird and wonderful topic but yeah Bitcoin is an elastic price of energy based on how much hash rate is online because hash rate online being produced by the proof of producing blocks u and the difficulty adjustment the difficulty adjustment essentially represents the purchasing power of your Bitcoin when difficultyy’s going up your your Bitcoin is gaining more kilowatt hour purchasing power but you’ve also got the component of the efficiency of machines is continually um in decline in the sense that these machines are gaining gaining efficiency by consuming less energy to produce more compute so um Moore’s law is not working against you but um essentially that microchips are continually getting more efficient but they al they’re also hitting chip density limits and uh uh that’s going to be an interesting thing in the future but overall yeah less and less Bitcoin every four years but more and more energy so the in a in a couple hundred years one bitcoin will essentially well even to now I I theorize that one bitcoin has the purchasing power of 10,000 years of a single human’s consumption of energy so yes you could essentially retire your bloodline and there is a way to actually mathematically define what that represents thank you for listening i hope you enjoy this video share it to anyone you think would find this of interest um I’m add I’m going to add it to this sheet that I will be sharing on the channel i hope to see you in the next one like subscribe and I’ll see you goodbye

Video Transcript:

hello there and welcome to the HashPower Academy my name is Jake Scandalan i’m the lead educator here at the academy and this is a place for you to learn anything and everything to do with Bitcoin in the context of finance the price where it’s going to go and how it’s going to get there that’s the interesting piece but you may have also heard of the blockchain different alternative currencies trying to uh explore the use of blockchain technology and all other different things now we focus here on Bitcoin but also from its fundamental layers these are the pieces that you may be missing in your understanding as to where Bitcoin is today and going into the future because if you understand Bitcoin from its dollarized price maybe different trading sentiments and the markets and what Black Rockck and all the other different large institutions are doing what Sailor’s doing that’s just the financial tip of the iceberg underneath the water level the Bitcoin blockchain the depths of all the different technical electrical and financial aspects of how Bitcoin works and the incentives of how it all connects together those are the most important pieces to learn why because if you are a trader for example it’s all based on your information if you know what happens tomorrow you can trade today and that’s not to say that these fundamental levels are going to teach you what happens tomorrow well in some sense you know when the hing’s coming but if you understand that the hing is going to double the production cost and you know that the price is going to not really go below production these are the sorts of things that you might not understand if you haven’t learned Bitcoin’s energy and compute fundamentals and these are the sorts of things that we talk about here at the Hash Power Academy the mathematical connection between electricity compute power and a quantity of Bitcoin being produced on the blockchain now if I have lost you already I’m sorry but this is the key thing here it’s boring stuff if you are focused on the financial side of this that think of a hundred people that you may know maybe one of them actually went deep into mining economics and the maths and physics and blockchain and coding and all these other different subject areas of Bitcoin besides finance if a hundred people that you know in the trading group chat for example and I’m sorry if I’ve targeted traders with this talk but oh well hundred of them maybe one of them has some insight into mining and that same analogy carries across to the world that maybe there is truly one in a 100red people that have got into Bitcoin and learned about it in some way now that one in a hundred multiplies out again that say you pick a hundred Bitcoiners of that 1% barely only 1% of them have actually learned about mining and so you got this 1% of the 1% and the deeper you go into these knowledge areas of all the different pieces from finance all the way down to energy these are the bits of where Bitcoin’s going tomorrow so if you care about holding Bitcoin storing Bitcoin saving in Bitcoin loaning against Bitcoin yield uh accumulation strategies like micro strategy um you’re only going to understand those from a fundamentals perspective because everything in this world is based on the fundamentals you get the basic building blocks of knowledge which delves into energy micro grids grid stability which is what Bitcoin miners are doing the microchip uh technology innovation curve that you know the latest phone comes out and it’s more efficient cheaper quicker faster whatever and it makes all the old old phones um less less expensive um you can boil that down to I want a fast computer you go in the shop you want an even faster computer you’re using software you’re doing gaming you want a faster computer but the underlying technology behind even all of our internet of things sort of world all of those different technology areas are also part of Bitcoin the AI conversation comes into this because what currency do you think AI is going to use that if you have some form of AI that wants to communicate with humans through goods services resources and language models as well what currency do you think it’s going to use is natively digital uh machine learning aggregated logic through this sort of neural network of try trying to speak to you and communicate to you as a human but as a system of if then and else and what currency do you think it’s going to use and where do you think it’s going to communicate it do you think it’s just going to communicate with the blockchain and pay people to do different services that the the the AI can’t do itself or do you think that it’s going to also have an integration on the energy side where the the two biggest constraints with AI are yes the sort of models and processing cost required to to run these models but also the general tasks that is required that when you prompt the AI and ask it to do something there is a computer somewhere out there consuming electricity to give you the answer that energy that energy has a cost and right now data centers are going to be quite limited because of the constraints of the electrical grid net zero policies pushing for more renewables and and more sustainable energy sources and they’re inst they’re instable so you’re going to have a consumer of energy on the demand side such as Bitcoin mining which if you delve into the hash power academy you’re going to learn that Bitcoin mining sets a price for electricity in a quantity of Bitcoin now what do you think AIs are going to communicate their need for both uh financial tasks to be paid in Bitcoin but also to seek energy collocation which is you having AI computers and Bitcoin computers consuming the same energy and the Bitcoin mining machines will switch off because they’re just an economic user of the energy they will switch off to sell that power uh to AI services that will pay that higher rate because everyone’s trying to use AI to make uh pictures of artistic art art styles of every image you can think of um there’s there’s endless topics here microchips AI yeah that’s the sort of compute parallels to Bitcoin mining and then you’ve got compute in of itself hash power on the Bitcoin side which is the delving into cryptography and secure communications uh these are all technology areas that they may seem boring to a lot of people but they’re not it’s how the world works it’s how it lives you get in your car you turn the key without even thinking about the combustion engine and how it works and yes we will get to that world where the majority live in that just operator mode of turn the key and push the pedal and and steer the wheel or well in our electrified world we’re not even going to be steering the wheel anymore we push a button and get that extra hour of sitting on the laptop whilst driving around so productivity gains somewhat and networks as well that if you’ve got these Bitcoin miners deploying compute all around the world data centers all around the world there’s an aspect of mesh nets coming in uh Bitcoin citadels where all the different citadels have their own communication systems between each other so our network communication systems get even more decentralized connect to Elon satellites which need more energy it’s all interconnected but if you just learn this piece on top yes you will ride the wave by holding Bitcoin but if you don’t understand the moving parts and the changes and volatility in these areas how are you going to understand what happens tomorrow which if you trade you need more information really and SH 256 is an interesting one because it delves down the quantum direction of things you’ve got these new innovations in just about every direction and if we if if we uh develop computers that can truly crack SH 256 which would be quite impressive because SH 256 is essentially a larger number than there are atoms in the universe and to break that sort of level of encryption uh would be monumental and Bitcoin being cracked so to speak would be the least of problems there’s nuclear codes and half the internet runs on SH 256 and well yeah you need to understand it to to know where it’s going and when the the news headlines come up oh this is going to happen that’s going to happen this is a concern if you don’t have the knowledge how are you going to be able to action your trades sorry traders I keep prioritizing you as an example but yeah learn about Bitcoin learn about the blockchain but go into compute power mining machines and microchips the AI parallel grid stability where these computers can switch on and off and provide power on a Bitcoin unit of account to such things like AI agents that will serve you in every way we hope and as everything else in everything in society you put in your mouth put in the car put in the plane everything depends on energy we have a currency that continually controls and and objectively tries to price itself against energy the the pro dollar and so energy always has a part of the conversation of the inputs to our economy and our society and finance has all the outputs and if you learn all the pieces in the middle you’ll have a lot more information to action your action your trades shall we say so I hope this was an interesting video it went all over the place but this is what we do at the Hash Power Academy in a more specific structural format with other videos delving into the numbers and it will provide you more information that’s all I’m trying to provide here is a wider scope of information to those that might just have a very tunnel vision financial lens to Bitcoin when the energy and compute sectors create this very powerful trifecta that I have shown as a vertical stack thank you for listening i hope you enjoy and I’ll see you in the next one i hope goodbye
