Austin Bitcoin Club Presents: Powering Freedom
Bitcoin Park Austin, 601 Congress Avenue, Suite 250, Austin, TX, USTexas has become an epicenter of Bitcoin mining, where abundant energy meets monetary technology. This panel convenes mining specialists to discuss how Bitcoin mining is transforming the energy sector and strengthening grid resilience. Hear about projects turning wasted natural gas into Bitcoin (360 Mining’s vertically integrated gas wells) and how miners can act as flexible energy buyers, even returning power to the grid when needed.
Speakers:- Will Cole (Zaprite)
- Chris Alfano (360 Energy)
Please RSVP as space will be limited.
If this is your first time at one of our meetups, we have a few simple guidelines to enhance everyone’s experience:
- our meetups and events have a simple and singular focus: Bitcoin. All of our topics and discussions will be centered around Bitcoin, the global monetary network, and bitcoin, the reserve asset. If you are interested in crypto tokens, stocks, blockchains, altcoins, alternative investing, NFTs, etc. that is completely fine. There are a number of other meetups to join. This meetup however is just focused on Bitcoin
- please no photos unless no one is identifiable in the background. We respect everyone’s privacy and want everyone to feel comfortable as they participate
- while the group discussion is going, please keep side conversations to none. With the acoustics of the room and the number of people we expect, any conversations will echo and be a distraction for those who are trying to listen many of whom have traveled a long way to participate
- please pick up after yourself
- Street parking or the paid garage across from our building on East 6th (515 Congress)
