<p>In this episode, Brad Mines and Ryan McLeod, known as Nuclear Bitcoiner, discuss the intersection of Bitcoin and nuclear power. Ryan shares his background in the energy sector and how he became involved with Bitcoin, particularly in relation to small modular reactors (SMRs) and their potential to provide stable energy for Bitcoin mining. The conversation explores the growing demand for energy in Bitcoin mining, the societal impacts of energy infrastructure, and the future of nuclear power as a viable energy source. Ryan emphasizes the importance of empowering marginalized communities through reliable energy and the role of Bitcoin in this transformation. The discussion also touches on the political landscape surrounding energy and Bitcoin, concluding with thoughts on the future of these technologies and their potential to reshape society.<br>Chapters<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo">00:00</a> Introduction to Bitcoin and Nuclear Energy<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo&t=278s">04:38</a> The Role of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs)<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo&t=538s">08:58</a> Nuclear Power's Global Landscape<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo&t=811s">13:31</a> Bitcoin Mining and Energy Demand<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo&t=1085s">18:05</a> Canada's Energy Market and Bitcoin Mining<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo&t=1351s">22:31</a> Future Impacts of Bitcoin and Energy Infrastructure<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo&t=1621s">27:01</a> Personal Motivations and Broader Implications<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo&t=2363s">39:23</a> The Double Spend Problem and Bitcoin's Role<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo&t=2685s">44:45</a> Bitcoin and Energy: A Perfect Synergy<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo&t=2958s">49:18</a> Nuclear Power and Global Politics<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo&t=3237s">53:57</a> The Polarization of Politics and Media<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo&t=3532s">58:52</a> Nuclear Waste Management and Safety<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJa8YfpNoDo&t=4131s">01:08:51</a> The Future of Bitcoin and Nuclear Energy<br></p><p>Follow Ryan McLeod: </p><p>https://x.com/NuclearBitcoinr</p><p><br></p><p>π Use these links to start your journey:</p><p>π Sign up with our referral: https://bitcoinwell.com/referral/halvingreport</p><p>πΌ OTC desk (for $100K+ buys): https://bitcoinwell.com/otc</p><p>π₯ Like, comment, and subscribe for more real Bitcoin content.</p><p><br></p><p>π΅οΈββοΈ Follow us in the shadows:</p><p>π¦ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/HalvingReport</p><p>πΈ Instagram: http://instagram.com/halvingreport</p><p>π§ Podcast: https://halvingreport.buzzsprout.com/share</p><p>π΅ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1KPu47ArZiMwGBIeGh6e7i</p><p>π Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/halving-report/id1489878377</p><p>πΊ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HalvingReport</p><p><br></p><p>π Hit that bell and stay sovereign</p><p><br></p>
