In this episode of The Bitcoin Business Podcast, Brandon Karpeles talks with Patrick, founder of GreatGhee.com, a Bitcoin-native business making high-quality ghee directly from local farms in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley.

Grid Pool is an exciting example of how things can be done differently and offer solutions. I'm paying close attention, it's never been more valuable to participate in Bitcoin mining, it's not just about kyc free sats. It's about the revolution, the chance to be apart of unleashing freedom to the world.
