Why LATAM Is Bitcoin’s Next Mining Frontier w/ Nacho Pauls

Описание: Why LATAM Is Bitcoin’s Next Mining Frontier w/ Nacho Pauls

Bitcoin mining is evolving — and Latin America is at the center of the next wave.

Nacho Pauls, Managing Director at Penguin Group, joins the show to share how they built a 100 MW site in Paraguay using 100% hydropower from the Itaipú Dam — and how they’re combining hashrate with social impact.

They’ve trained over 4,500 young people through a nonprofit coding academy funded directly from mining revenue — and are scaling into other LATAM countries and Canada.
