When it comes to Bitcoin, most people are still focused on price charts, ETFs, and short-term speculation. But in his recent appearance on the Bitcorner podcast, our fearless leader Kent Halliburton made the case that the real story isn’t happening in markets — it’s unfolding in the mining layer.
From his years in renewable energy to his leadership at Sazmining, Kent has always believed that Bitcoin mining is about more than profitability — it’s about sovereignty. During the conversation, he explored how mining is reshaping global energy systems, challenging legacy finance, and becoming a long-term savings engine for sovereign individuals.
🔌 Why Owning a Miner Is the Ultimate Bitcoiner Move
Kent pulls no punches when it comes to rental mining models. His take is simple:
“If you don’t own your rig, you’re just funding someone else’s stack.”
At Sazmining, ownership isn’t optional — it’s the whole point.
Customers buy their rigs outright and earn Bitcoin directly into their self-custody wallet. No middlemen. No hosting leases. No buried terms.
This creates true alignment.
Sazmining only succeeds when customers do — and that’s how it should be.
“We’re not here to sell access. We’re here to sell ownership.”
⚡ The Energy Side: Bitcoin as a Grid-Enhancing Technology
Drawing on his background in solar energy, Kent explains how Bitcoin mining actually improves the economics of renewable power. Instead of being a “drain” on energy, miners stabilize the grid by monetizing excess and stranded supply — especially in regions like Paraguay and Norway.
Sazmining’s operations tap into 100% hydropower, transforming overlooked infrastructure into sat-generating engines.
“The thing people miss is that Bitcoin doesn’t just use energy. It makes new kinds of energy viable.”
💡 Mining as a Long-Term Savings Plan (Not a Get-Rich Scheme)
Kent encourages Bitcoiners to zoom out.
While most people treat mining like a business or trading operation, it can function like a DCA strategy — but better.
With a one-time rig purchase and access to some of the lowest electricity rates in the world (as low as $0.046/kWh), Sazmining customers can earn Bitcoin consistently at-cost. There’s no market timing. No off-ramping. Just pure, sovereign accumulation.
“Mining is your savings plan. Your personal mint. Your financial independence machine.”
🧱 Renting Rigs Is Fiat Thinking
Kent explains that rental-based models mirror the very financial system Bitcoiners are trying to escape:
- Deferred ownership
- Opaque fees
- Misaligned incentives
- Platform risk
That’s why Sazmining refuses to offer rental rigs. Every customer gets direct ownership, real rewards, and transparent economics.
🛰️ A Vision for the Next 100 Years
Kent shared his view of mining as a 110-year project — something closer to a constitution than a product.
In his words, this is about:
- Creating decentralized access to the Bitcoin network
- Giving individuals a way to opt out of legacy finance
- Making renewable energy profitable in places where it wasn’t before
- Building infrastructure that lasts
“Mining isn’t a short-term play. It’s how we build a future where Bitcoiners are the infrastructure — not just the users.”
