NiceHash Live Open Hash Power Marketplace, BRC-20 & Ordinals | Marko Tarman | Stackin Sats #012

Plamenko sits down to soak in the sun with Marko in Miami, FL. Marko shares NiceHash's open hash power marketplace, which connects miners and sellers of hash power with buyers of hash power in real-time. They discuss the features of NiceHash’s marketplace, Marko’s background into mining, and a little bit about Ordinals, the buzz surrounding BRC20 and Bitcoin transaction fees. Marko Tarman is the Lead Mining Manager at NiceHash and has a wealth of knowledge and experience on Bitcoin and mining in general. His team at NiceHash delivers something greater than cloud mining, which enables the user to buy computing power for mining from other people. Marko and Plamenko first connected in Houston at Empower 2023, and they got a chance to record this episode in Miami last month during Bitcoin 2023.   SUPPORT On-Chain BTC Wallet: 38yjk4PN9fyXyzrz34m2G3Rs8FVaafZYXa Lightning Wallet Address: ghastlybeast15@walletofsatoshi.com [ghastlybeast15@walletofsatoshi.com]   EPISODE LINKS NiceHash: https://www.nicehash.com/ [https://www.nicehash.com/] NiceHash Open Hash Power Marketplace: https://www.nicehash.com/marketplace [https://www.nicehash.com/marketplace] Marko's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markotarman/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/markotarman/]   TIMESTAMPS (0:00) - Intro (2:25) - NiceHash & Open Hash Power Marketplace (9:40) - Main Features of Open Hash Power Marketplace (16:01) - Advantages of Buying & Selling Through NiceHash (22:04) - History of NiceHash (26:21) - The Importance of KYC (Know Your Customer) (29:38) - Marko's History in Mining (33:50) - NiceHash Security Breach (38:13) - Future of NiceHash (44:21) - Marko's Opinion on Ordinals & Transaction Fees (52:53) - Outro & Last Words   PODCAST LINKS Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0Pi60eXnxVK7Y7olWpmzNo?si=f7e256ad7c584ddb [https://open.spotify.com/show/0Pi60eXnxVK7Y7olWpmzNo?si=f7e256ad7c584ddb] Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stackin-sats/id1669828369 [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stackin-sats/id1669828369] RSS: https://feed.podbean.com/stackinsats/feed.xml [https://feed.podbean.com/stackinsats/feed.xml] Full Episode Playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZVMR1eHq9HsuayGJ2epKxAkxZrFWY2Hg [https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZVMR1eHq9HsuayGJ2epKxAkxZrFWY2Hg] Episode Clips Playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZVMR1eHq9HsJ5RgwH1bQ0tMopUm5rlpR [https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZVMR1eHq9HsJ5RgwH1bQ0tMopUm5rlpR]   INQUIRIES Email: hello@fourspacemining.com [hello@fourspacemining.com] Telegram: https://t.me/plamenko_4space [https://t.me/plamenko_4space] Nostr: npub13qp4c97ww2u3877xnanmwwrwr5wtuxnu2wc5lca5tjgmqz5d5zyq5eeeqf   WEBSITE & SOCIAL LINKS Website: https://fourspacemining.com/ [https://fourspacemining.com/] LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/plamenkovasic/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/plamenkovasic/] Telegram: https://t.me/fourspacemarketplace [https://t.me/fourspacemarketplace] Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/user/4SpaceMining/ [https://www.reddit.com/user/4SpaceMining/]

Free Republic of Liberland: Decentralized Autonomous Government | Vít Jedlička | Stackin Sats #011

Plamenko sits down for a special interview at Bitcoin 2023 in Miami with Vít Jedlička. Vít is the President of the Free Republic of Liberland, a sovereign state located between Croatia and Serbia. They discuss the history of Liberland, DAGs (Decentralized Autonomous Government), and how to become a citizen of Liberland. Plamenko had only heard of Liberland a few days ago, in conversation with friends. How funny to be sitting days later and interviewing their president. To clear up the confusion, Liberland is not an island but instead a piece of land located on the west bank of the Danube River. The country's motto is: To live and let live.   SUPPORT On-Chain BTC Wallet: 38yjk4PN9fyXyzrz34m2G3Rs8FVaafZYXa Lightning Wallet Address: ghastlybeast15@walletofsatoshi.com [ghastlybeast15@walletofsatoshi.com]   EPISODE LINKS Liberland Website: https://liberland.org/en/ [https://liberland.org/en/] Liberland Telegram: https://t.me/BecomeLeberlander [https://t.me/BecomeLeberlander] Liberland Press: https://liberlandpress.com/ [https://liberlandpress.com/]   PODCAST LINKS Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0Pi60eXnxVK7Y7olWpmzNo?si=f7e256ad7c584ddb [https://open.spotify.com/show/0Pi60eXnxVK7Y7olWpmzNo?si=f7e256ad7c584ddb] Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stackin-sats/id1669828369 [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stackin-sats/id1669828369] RSS: https://feed.podbean.com/stackinsats/feed.xml [https://feed.podbean.com/stackinsats/feed.xml] Full Episode Playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZVMR1eHq9HsuayGJ2epKxAkxZrFWY2Hg [https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZVMR1eHq9HsuayGJ2epKxAkxZrFWY2Hg] Episode Clips Playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZVMR1eHq9HsJ5RgwH1bQ0tMopUm5rlpR [https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZVMR1eHq9HsJ5RgwH1bQ0tMopUm5rlpR]   INQUIRIES Email: hello@fourspacemining.com [hello@fourspacemining.com] Telegram: https://t.me/plamenko_4space [https://t.me/plamenko_4space] Nostr: npub13qp4c97ww2u3877xnanmwwrwr5wtuxnu2wc5lca5tjgmqz5d5zyq5eeeqf   TIMESTAMPS (0:00) - Intro (2:50) - What Exactly is Liberland?
