Hey guys, sorry that I have not done interviews in a while. I had to just take some time with family. At the moment some of my kids are sick, as well as myself (no, it's not coronavirus), but I really wanted to speak with fellow Aussie, Thomas Heller, about all that F2Pool are doing in the area of crypto mining, so late last night we caught up for a LONG crypto mining chat. F2Pool are the largest cryptocurrency mining pool in the world, so I thought speaking with him might really help you understand the state of crypto mining, especially in these crazy economic times. It was FREE and for everyone in the spirit of education. Don't forget to like or sub if this is useful. (and yeah, I need to buy a new chair, lol). p.s. some good news about Tellor $TRB mentioned in the chat too.
☄??????
