Colin Harper, our new Editor-in-Chief, walks us through important updates including mining revenue bottoming to historic lows, Iris Energy (IRENE) struggling after a failed hedging strategy this summer in Texas, a flopped narrative violation on China banning (or not banning, depending on the quality of your research) Bitcoin mining and Paraguay trying to bring more Bitcoin mining down south!
