In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Robin Ser to discuss the inevitability of money printing and its impact on Bitcoin. Robin shares insights into his personal journey over the last year, including changes in his approach to storytelling, business pivots, and the launch of his new venture, Micros Seeded. We delve into the inefficiencies of the market, the importance of cash reserves, and strategies to maintain liquidity while holding Bitcoin. Robin also touches upon the idea of using boredom to foster creativity and reimagining how we approach work. This episode offers a comprehensive look at economic predictions, personal growth, and entrepreneurial strategies in the Bitcoin space.

Trying to understand Bitcoin mining in 2026? This episode breaks it down in a clear, practical way, from Bitcoin ETFs and treasury strategies to AI, power access, and mining economics. Beau Turner is joined by Nico Smid, Founder of Digital Mining Solutions, and Cindy Feng, Founder of BitcoinMiningStock.io, to explore how Bitcoin mining is moving beyond raw hash rate growth. They explain why the Zeta Hash milestone marks a shift toward efficiency, capital discipline, and smarter energy and treasury strategies, while also unpacking how AI and high-performance computing (HPC) are reshaping mining infrastructure, ASIC cycles, and mining stocks, revealing where capital and opportunity are really flowing. This conversation builds on insights from Nico Smid and Cindy Feng’s 2025 Bitcoin Mining Market Review, which they referenced throughout the episode to ground the discussion in real market data and trends.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Alex Busarov, founder of HeatBit, a company pioneering consumer-grade Bitcoin mining heaters that turn household heat into hashrate. Alex’s background spans engineering, energy systems, and entrepreneurship. His insight began with a simple realization: electricity becomes heat either way so routing that same energy through computation can produce bitcoin as a byproduct instead of pure waste. This conversation dives into the realities of home mining, the physics misconceptions around energy use, and why energy reuse may become increasingly important as halvings compress margins and chip efficiency gains slow.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Bob Burnett, technology pioneer, early leader in the personal computing revolution, and one of Bitcoin’s clearest voices on mining, incentive design, and what it takes to build resilient decentralized systems. Bob’s journey spans 40+ years across personal computing, hardware engineering, and now Bitcoin mining. From CTO at Gateway during its rise to a Fortune 200 company, to running one of the most principled mining operations today, Bob brings a rare long-term perspective on technology cycles, decentralization, and why Bitcoin is nowhere near “finished.” This conversation dives into the evolution of mining, the coming block-space markets, why energy will become the dominant constraint, and what the next decade of Bitcoin adoption really requires.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Sydney Bright— Client Success Lead at Abundant Mines and author of The Ancient Way of the Mind. Sydney operates at the intersection of Bitcoin, energy, and consciousness, helping investors build sovereign systems while exploring what it means to live clearly in an overstimulated world. He breaks down his Calm Pond Hypothesis, why modern thinking pollutes our perception, and how ancient mindfulness practices and modern tools like computers and Bitcoin can actually restore mental, physical, and spiritual health. This one bridges thermodynamics, sound money, and the inner work required for sovereignty.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Pierre Noizat- one of Europe’s earliest Bitcoin pioneers, Co-founder and CEO of Paymium (one of the world’s first Bitcoin exchanges, launched in 2011), and author of Energy: The Flip Side of Money. Pierre explores how Bitcoin isn’t just money, it’s a thermodynamic revolution. From the physics of energy and entropy to the politics of control, this conversation dives into why tying money to energy restores order, sovereignty, and truth to civilization.

In this episode, we sit down with Jake Seifert, co-founder of Air BTC, a Bitcoin-first travel platform helping hosts earn sats and travelers spend them in the real world. We talk about why “Bitcoin-native” travel matters, the power of circular economies (from El Salvador to Costa Rica), and how real-life community, policy, and better incentives can move Bitcoin from cold storage to everyday life. Jake shares how a personal pain point wanting to accept Bitcoin for his own short-term rentals became a business that offers lower fees than legacy platforms, white-glove onboarding, Lightning/on-chain payments, Bitcoin-back rewards, and even fun experiments like in-property Bitaxe solo-mining perks. This one’s about ownership, usage, and building parallel rails you can actually live on.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Gen ZBTC — Bitcoin educator, speaker, and one of the most recognizable young voices in the movement to unpack what Bitcoin uniquely means for a generation that feels locked out of ownership, freedom, and truth. From meme coins and WallStreetBets to speaking at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C., Gen Z shares his story of losing money in “crypto,” finding conviction in Bitcoin, and discovering how broken incentives, inflation, and nihilism have shaped Gen Z’s view of adulthood and wealth. We explore why Bitcoin resonates with a generation raised online, how self-custody became his turning point, and why showing up in real life from local meetups to D.C. policy events, actually matters. This is an honest, high-energy conversation about truth, responsibility, and reclaiming ownership in a world that tells you it’s impossible.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, we sit down with Brett Swarts —capital gains tax strategist, real estate investor, and founder of Capital Gains Tax Solutions to unpack how Bitcoiners and entrepreneurs can build real wealth without being crushed by the tax code. Brett’s journey spans commercial real estate, the 2008 financial crisis, and now a specialty in helping high-net-worth investors legally defer capital gains, design intentional exits, and preserve more of what they’ve earned. With thousands of transactions, a spotless audit record, and decades of track record behind him, Brett has become the go-to guide for those who want to keep and compound their wealth rather than hand half of it to the IRS. This conversation goes far beyond spreadsheets. We dig into the psychological traps of “never sell” strategies, why borrowing against Bitcoin can backfire, and how aligning tax flow, cash flow, and debt flow creates true financial freedom. Brett shares client stories, the mechanics of the Deferred Sales Trust, and why building a family mission, vision, and set of values around wealth is just as critical as the technical strategy.
