New technologies demand a better imagination. Old models will break, and new, unexpected, and wild ideas will replace them. In this episode, I dive into David Bennett’s wild “Forest Walker” concept. Can Bitcoin mining actually tip the scales on ideas that couldn't breach the barrier into economic sustainability? Could a fleet of autonomous, Bitcoin-powered forest robots be the answer to catastrophic wildfires, or is it too much complexity in a world that needs simple solutions? Let’s dig in and see if this crazy idea is really as far-fetched as it sounds—or if it’s exactly the kind of out-of-the-box thinking Bitcoin was made for.
