About this episode
Crypto is driving fundamental changes to the way data is stored, moved and computed which has interesting implications both for big data center providers like Google, Amazon and Microsoft, but also for countries which are in the throes of insanity over their domestic energy policy.

Sam Texas is a veteran of the e-commerce and technology space who brings a unique perspective on where these cross-currents between the quest for decentralization within crypto and the current over-centralization of the data centers meet with prevailing energy politics and explode.
