Welcome back to The Mining Pod! Today, Matt Prusak, CEO of American Bitcoin, joins us to discuss the strategic partnership between HUT 8 and the Trump family for its latest subsidiary, American Bitcoin. Hut 8 is reallocating nearly all of its self-mining assets (10 EH/s) to American Bitcoin and taking an 80% stake in the company. Prusak explains why Hut 8 has taken this approach to focus self-mining efforts with American Bitcoin while the parent company focuses on energy, infrastructure, and AI. Plus, he touches on American Bitcoin’s ambitious plans to reach 50 EH/s and the company’s plans to go public.

# Notes:

- HUT 8 allocated mining assets for 80% stake

- Starting with 10 EH/s, targeting 50 EH/s

- American Bitcoin will build own Bitcoin treasury

- Emphasizes "America First" Bitcoin ethos

- Plans to go public in the future

- Targeting sub-15 joules per terahash efficiency
