## Resource

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Beau Turner, co-founder and CEO of Abundant Mines. What starts as a conversation about mining quickly becomes something bigger: a deep exploration of what it means to convert energy into sovereignty. Beau’s path here wasn’t easy. From real estate empires to catastrophic losses in sketchy mining operations. Now he’s on the other side, helping everyday investors participate in something that was once reserved for industrial giants. This isn’t just about hash rate and electricity costs. It’s about conviction. It’s about understanding that while everyone else is chasing narratives, there are people quietly building the physical backbone of a monetary revolution. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to truly commit to Bitcoin, this conversation will show you. ––– Offers & Discounts ––– 🎟️ BitcoinDay Tickets - 10% OFF Join us at BitcoinDay (including the carnivore dinner!)
