In this episode, I sat down with Dunc from Solo Mining Co to explore the world of Bitcoin mining from the ground up — from early memories of money to the realities of home mining today. Dunc explains how mining has evolved, starting from the days of solo mining to the rise of mining pools, breaking down the process in a way that makes it accessible to anyone.We dug into topics like the 51% attack, the differences between altruistic solo miners and pooling resources, and the unique challenges and opportunities facing miners in the UK. He shared innovative, practical approaches for mining at home, along with insights into how mining technology is changing and what the future may look like.We also talked about mining strategies, market dynamics, the economics behind mining, and why running your own node remains essential. Toward the end, we reflected on how Bitcoin — and especially mining — has the power to shift beliefs and reshape how people understand money, energy, and sovereignty.
