Bitaxe: Open Source Hardware! with Skot 9000

You've heard of open source software. How about open source hardware? My guest today is Skot, the instigator of the Bitaxe project and who is on the board of the 256 Foundation, building out the open-source Bitcoin mining ecosystem. Like Bitcoin itself, Bitaxe is fully open source with an onboard controller that lets you mine Bitcoin directly over Wi-Fi and is easily configured through the AxeOS dashboard. I'm mining with three of them right now in fact, and there should be a Bitaxe on every desktop, and in every home. I met Skot in Prague and found him to be incredibly humble, and yet he has an Amazing story about the origin of Bitaxe and many continuous hardware projects and the open source community he's working with now.

Art, Bitcoin, Culture! with Dimitria Barrows

You know that it's good to "get out and touch grass." My guest today goes out to touch clay. Contemporary ceramic artist Dimitria Barrows spent a decade working fulltime in the art industry — at Gagosian, Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac, among others — handling exhibitions, sales, and artists’ studios — a blast from the past — before returning to her own practice in 2024. Now Barrows makes ceramics, including functional sculptural vessels. Based in Zug, Switzerland — known as Crypto Valley — Barrows creates handmade stoneware ceramics — vases and vessels exploring value formation in internet memes, crypto culture, economics, onchain dynamics. Barrows bridges the contemporary art scene with Bitcoin. Each artwork is unique, boldly glazed, and created with utility in mind — it mirrors how we assign (and verify) worth, a question she watched play out in blue-chip galleries and now watches play out onchain. Barrows’ artworks are NFC-chipped and onchain-registered; these conceptual ceramics exist as physical-digital twins. Barrows graduated from Zurich University of the Arts, ZHdK (Zürcher Hochschule der Künste) in Zurich with a Bachelors in Fine Arts in 2015. I find particularly attractive and when I saw her work in Prague and met her in person, I wanted to get her on the podcast.

Bitcoin Art, Slave Money! with Gus Grillasca

Website: https://www.gusgrillasca.com Find Gus on X: https://x.com/GusGrillasca Nostr: npub1h4l2gnyjrufcwg853j38ak84cwrmp3gyhmec8tmfmsjgt76dytms3k6592 See his work on Scarce.City: https://scarce.city/creators/gus-grillasca Bitcoin Art Magazine: https://bitcoinartmagazine.com Gus Grillasca is recognized as the first cryptoartist in Latin America and one of the earliest global pioneers in the creation and dissemination of digital collectibles and NFTs. Gus also has an extensive, two decade long background in biochemistry and engineering, bringing a systems-thinking approach to visual art. So his work intersects money and decentralized systems with science and philosophy, with a focus on Bitcoin’s cultural and ideological impact. As an illustrator since childhood and a scientist, Gus Grillasca's work spans from ink on paper, acrylic, sculpture, and mixed media—rooted in visual storytelling, dance, literature, music, philosophy, and science. His creative practice is inseparable from economic thinking. He has been a Bitcoiner since 2014, captivated by its potential to redefine value, private property, and decentralized systems. His style ranges from cyberpunk, political commentary, and the evolution of money, with a particular emphasis on Bitcoin as a model of financial sovereignty and resistance to centralized control. Through illustration, mixed media, and conceptual design, he builds visual narratives that reflect cypherpunk values such as privacy, immutability, and individual autonomy. Across his work, Grillasca examines the tension between technological systems and human agency, using art as a way to question economic structures and imagine alternative futures grounded in decentralization. His practice consistently returns to Bitcoin as a foundational reference point for digital value, trustless systems, and open monetary networks, positioning his work within the early cultural expression of the Bitcoin movement. I personally love the style and variety of the work he produces, and I've personally observed how the Bitcoin Art movement and works such as the Bitcoin Art Magazine is what connects us to the spirit of why we Bitcoin, and I can't wait to hear more from this amazing artist.

Bitcoin Video Magazine, Issue #2 Is Out! with Tim Tayshun

Bitcoin Video Magazine Issue #2 has been released! Producer Tim Tayshun has been putting hisyears of experience and hard work into this effort, part of the mission to orange pill the world and educate fellow plebs. Like a crazy fool, he bought his first bit of bitcoin on April Fool's Day of 2013, attended his first meetup a year later, and studied everything available about Bitcoin at the time. He started putting out the first Bitcoin ATMS in California and attended his first Bitcoin conference, The North American Bitcoin Conference in Miami, in January 2015. He closely followed the PayCoin saga and became intimately aware of the scams growing at this time, including the OneCoin ponzi scam. His work garnered a lot of attention, even getting sued in federal court by OneCoin operatives and receiving death threats. This wild ride we are all a part of is just the beginning, fellow bitcoiners.
