How many myths have you been told about Bitcoin's environmental impact? My special guest Elliot David from the Sustainable Bitcoin Protocol is on a mission to help the world understand the truth about the environmental benefits and myths of Bitcoin. Elliot debunks common misconceptions about Bitcoin's energy consumption and explains how SBP is pioneering transparency and sustainability in the Bitcoin network. We explore the innovative ways Bitcoin mining can drive the energy transition and support sustainable development, particularly in energy-poor regions. Elliot shares his journey from working in energy and climate sectors to integrating Bitcoin as a climate tech solution. We discuss the potential of Bitcoin mining to utilize stranded renewable energy and its role in electrifying remote communities. The conversation also touches on the challenges and opportunities of integrating Bitcoin with global energy systems and the importance of collaboration between Bitcoin advocates and the climate community. Tune in to discover how Bitcoin can be a force for good in the fight against climate change and energy poverty.🩷 FOLLOW ELLIOThttps://www.sustainablebtc.org/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/sustainablebtc https://twitter.com/SustainableBTC https://www.linkedin.com/in/elliot-david-101/ https://twitter.com/Elliot_J_David 🔥 LISTEN TO EPISODE HERE https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/djvalerieblove/179(00:00:03) Debunking Bitcoin Myths(00:01:19) Introduction to Elliot David and Sustainable Bitcoin Protocol(00:02:03) Promoting Transparency in Bitcoin Mining(00:03:08) Elliot's Journey from Energy to Bitcoin(00:04:22) Energy Challenges in Puerto Rico(00:06:12) Renewable Energy Potential in Puerto Rico(00:09:00) The Importance of Reliable Energy Access(00:10:26) Understanding Power Grids and Energy Demand(00:13:36) Bitcoin Mining as a Flexible Energy Solution(00:17:15) Bitcoin Mining in Remote Communities(00:21:35) Stranded Renewable Energy in Emerging Markets(00:25:19) Challenges of Bitcoin Mining in Global South(00:28:00) Sustainable Bitcoin Protocol's Role(00:32:39) Investing in Infrastructure for Bitcoin Adoption(00:35:08) How Sustainable Bitcoin Protocol Works(00:41:08) Market Demand for Sustainable Bitcoin Certificates(00:48:05) Pricing and Trading of Sustainable Bitcoin Certificates(00:54:35) Addressing Historical Bitcoin Mining(00:56:38) Energy Use of AI vs. Bitcoin(01:03:03) Public Perception and Adoption Challenges(01:08:13) Elliot's Personal Journey in Bitcoin(01:16:42) Political Implications of Bitcoin Adoption(01:21:05) Bitcoin as a Unifying Force❤️ SUBSCRIBE to the LOVE Warrior Newsletterhttps://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe🧡 SUPPORT THE SHOW WITH TIPS - Thank You! https://getalby.com/p/djvalerie 💛 SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCASTYOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@djvaleriebloveWEBSITE: https://djvalerieblove.com/podcastFOUNTAIN.FM: https://fountain.fm/show/761jhxFiibErm7eZZdltAPPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bitcoin-for-peace-dj-valerie-b-love-friends/id1441540841SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/6kZfzFZ3wKmWiljDajrJZ5?si=a9433473b06f464bRSS: https://serve.podhome.fm/rss/4996bcea-e098-5a89-ac63-af7a3df7cb5d💚 FOLLOW DJ Valerie X - TWITTER: https://twitter.com/djvaleriebloveFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/djValerieBLoveINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/djvalerieblove/LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dj-valerie-b-love/NOSTR: npub184cwc849sejs5pr566zcg4pqn53zzk85q70gmwqx7qt77h3suansvet30s🩵 DJ VALERIE’S FAVORITE TOOLS AUDIBLE - Get 2 FREE Audiobooks https://www.audibletrial.com/bitcoinSHAMORY - Have Fun Learn Bitcoin 10% Discount shamory.com/loveREAL MUSHROOMS - 25% Off 1st order https://shop.realmushrooms.com/?ref=1232PODHOME.FM - 3 months FREE Podcast 2.0 Hosting https://www.podhome.fm/?via=valerieNUBYEN - Natural Beauty 15% OFF Code "DJVALERIE15" https://nubyen.com PAY WITH FLASH - Bitcoin Payments https://app.paywithflash.com/login?ref=7c443b63f7eb784403ec7f0a093950c542275095607be6aab76ce433f116887cPODCASTING INDEX - https://podcastindex.org/SATSBACK - Get Bitcoin rewards when you shop https://satsback.com/register/Ezv2VLwKXgLd8X4ZPERPLEXITY AI - Get $10 OFF https://perplexity.ai/pro?referral_code=U661YIKDHEATBIT - 5% OFF Code = PEACE -Earn Bitcoin & Save $ Heating Your Home https://heatbit.com/?ref=LOVE BTC TRADING CARDS - Have FUN + Learn Bitcoin https://btc-tc.com/LOVE 💙 DJ VALERIE’S FAVORITE EVENTS https://b.tc/conference/2025/ Use code LOVE for 10% OFF https://www.adoptingbitcoin.org/ Use code DJVAL for 10% OFFhttps://sovereignminds.ca/https://baltichoneybadger.com/https://bitblockboom.com/https://unconfiscatable.com/https://bitcoinunconference.com/https://afrobitcoin.org/https://oslofreedomforum.com/💜 BUY, TRADE, STORE, MINE BITCOINHODL HODL no KYC https://hodlhodl.com/join/NMKLQSWAN - Get $10 FREE Bitcoin - Dollar Cost Average - https://swanbitcoin.com/djvalerie RIVER FINANCIAL Buy Bitcoin Safely -Get Up to $100 in ...
