Listen "The Mining Metrics That Matter With Pennyether"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome back to The Mining Pod! For this week’s Bitcoin Stock Show, we’re joined by a great friend of the show, Pennyether. Some of y’all might recognize Penny from a couple of the earnings calls we streamed on The Bitcoin Stock Show earlier this year. He’s one of the most insightful independent bitcoin mining stock analysts in the game, and in this episode, he shares his methodology for valuing bitcoin miners, which metrics he finds the most (and least) useful, and his thoughts on the AI boom in mining.
