Bitcoin Mining Meets Nuclear Power w/ @saifedean

& Kenji Tateiwa

What happens when nuclear energy meets Bitcoin mining? ⚡🏭

Former TEPCO nuclear engineer Kenji Tateiwa reveals how Bitcoin mining can stabilize grids, monetize wasted energy, and reshape power infrastructure. 🔥

Here’s why this conversation is a game-changer 🧵👇

1/ From Fukushima to Bitcoin Mining

Kenji was at the heart of the Fukushima disaster, managing its aftermath. The biggest lesson? Nuclear power isn't the monster the media makes it out to be.

Today, he's using that experience to revolutionize Bitcoin mining & power generation.

2/ Is Nuclear Power Actually Safe?

Despite public fear, nuclear energy has the lowest death rate per gigawatt-hour—even safer than solar (yes, more people die installing panels than from nuclear accidents!).

Yet, countries like Germany shut down reactors & burned more coal instead. Makes sense?

3/ The Renewable Energy Trap

Governments push wind & solar, but there’s a catch: they’re unreliable and require massive infrastructure spending.

Bitcoin mining absorbs excess power, preventing waste & reducing costs for the grid. Instead of shutting down turbines, why not mine Bitcoin?

4/ Bitcoin Mining as a Grid Stabilizer

Kenji pioneered using Bitcoin mining to stabilize Japan’s power grid by turning excess energy into an instant, flexible demand source.

Translation: Less energy waste. Lower costs. More Bitcoin.

5/ What’s Next?

Kenji’s startup Agile EnergyX is proving that Bitcoin & energy markets are a perfect match.
