In this episode of the Coin Stories podcast, Natalie Brunell interviews John Stefanopoulos, founder of Futurebit, about the importance of decentralization in Bitcoin mining and the role of individual miners.

John discusses the recent success of their home mining device, the Apollo 2, which allows individuals to mine Bitcoin and submit blocks directly to the network, promoting censorship resistance. He emphasizes the need for more self-sovereign miners to combat the centralization of mining power and the potential risks it poses to the Bitcoin network.
