Second-hand ASIC Bitcoin Miners are not profitable anymore, for the manufacturer and its direct customers, due to the high electricity bills. However electricity is difficult to carry for long distance, so its cost is dependent on location. My job was to find places where electricity was being wasted (e.g. an off-grid micro-hydro power plant dumping electricity as heat outside of peak-hours to avoid the gears from over-heating) and strike a partnership.

To ensure cash liquidity and having all the paper-work in order abroad, language teaching has been an invaluable tool. It allowed me to practice my ability to communicate effectively in multiple languages to people of all levels of proficiency and backgrounds.

Travelling to over 30 countries in the world I had many opportunities to join other young people and work sustainably shoulder to shoulder.
