Welcome to The Mining Pod! Today, Christian Lopez, Head of Digital Assets at Cohen and Company Capital Markets, joins us to break down Bitcoin mining’s ever-shifting capital market landscape. Lopez explains why there’s currently a glut of mining sites on the market, why private miners struggle to secure funding, and why the HPC/AI retrofit narrative is more complex than it seems. We also discuss how potential tariffs might affect mining operations, why Bitcoin mining stocks are correlating differently with Bitcoin than in previous cycles, and the evolving relationship between Bitcoin miners and institutional investors.
