Why El Salvador is the Next Big Bitcoin Mining Hub | Gerald Wilkie
Live from Bitcoin Beach in El Zonte, El Salvador, I sit down with Gerald Wilkie to explore his company's plans to revolutionize Bitcoin mining and repair in El Salvador. Gerald shares their commitment to quality over quantity and their progress towards being fully operational by the end of Q3 with 74 megawatts of mining power.
We discuss the challenges of using Chinese-made mining equipment, which often breaks down in extreme conditions, creating a demand for reliable Bitcoin mining repair services. Gerald recounts their journey from mining Bitcoin in 2012 to becoming a professional operation in 2014, aiming to dominate ASIC repair in the western hemisphere.
We delve into their new venture in El Salvador, setting up a repair shop in a trade-free zone near San Salvador to offer faster, more reliable repairs to Central and South American clients. Gerald highlights the local employment opportunities, the ease of setting up operations, and the growing acceptance of Bitcoin in El Salvador.
Tune in for an insightful conversation on the challenges and opportunities in Bitcoin mining and repair, and the exciting developments in El Salvador.
