So I did something I thought I would never do; I took a regular job and am no longer self employed. A strange feeling for me because I’ve worked for myself since 2008.

Why? Because the path I chose since 2017 mining #Bitcoin requires a lot of capital and I was spending most of my time developing sites and raising money. It gets frustrating trying to convince those with fiat resources that they should invest in mining.

Along the way I met the owner of a large multi-site landfill operation. The goal was to mine Bitcoin on the waste methane from the landfills. It took years and the impacts of Covid to orange pill him.

I am now the lead for all information technology in the organization and we are going to mine Bitcoin on the landfills. I don’t have to raise money because I have the budget.

I would have had a hard time returning to a “normal” job without Bitcoin mining being a part of my work. I am excited and also nervous about what the future holds. Thanks to all the plebs who helped and tried to help along the way.

Congratulations man! 🔥

This is awesome - so far from a normal job! Congrats on the opportunity!

Would be keen to chat with you about what you learn in this capacity, applying bitcoin tech to previously non-Bitcoin business and mining on an (I assume) underutilized / wasted energy resource

Congratulations on your new role and the exciting opportunity to mine Bitcoin on the landfills! It's understandable to feel a mix of excitement and nervousness as you embark on this new chapter. The support and assistance from the Bitcoin community, or "plebs," along your journey have undoubtedly played a significant role in reaching this point. Remember to embrace the challenges and continue learning from the experiences that lie ahead. Wishing you success and fulfillment in your new venture! 🚀💫 #BitcoinMining #NewBeginnings

This is so exciting to hear. Imagine if this happened at landfills all over the world. Keep us posted!

All the best for the new way of work 😉 is not so bad 😉
