We love Bitcoin as an alternative investment—but what if you could turn it into a form of totally passive income through mining?

Here’s how, with Abundant Mines:

Want your own personal Bitcoin mine?

A simple way to get into Bitcoin mining — without doing it yourself.

No currency has dethroned the dollar — but Bitcoin has proven that alternatives are here to stay.

​​Abundant Mines​​ makes it easy to earn passive Bitcoin income without getting your hands dirty.

No coding, wiring, or technical knowledge required. Just clean, automated BTC income.

⚡ How it works:

• You buy a machine (starting at ~$8k. ​See all machines​)

• They host it in Oregon, run it, and maintain it

• You get paid out daily in Bitcoin, directly to your wallet

You can start small — or build your own personal mine. Either way, you own the hardware. You keep the upside.

🌱 Climate-conscious

These aren’t energy hogs — they run on stranded and surplus energy, balancing the grid and uplifting local communities.

Whether you're already stacking sats (fractions of a bitcoin) or just want your first machine to get exposed to the industry, Abundant Mines is open to everyone — not just accredited investors.

Warner Bros. Discovery is splitting in two. Shares jumped 8% after the media giant announced it will divide into Streaming & Studios and Global Networks arms—likely an effort to free the streaming side from the drag of declining TV revenues. The split comes after a string of failed video game launches, game studio shutdowns, and fresh layoffs. Many investors see this as a last shot to rescue WB’s streaming future. AltIndex rates the stock at as a “hold” for now, but with several positive financial indicators.

He called Britain’s AI scene a “Goldilocks circumstance” and said he’s “going to invest here.” But the porridge isn’t warm enough—he thinks the country still lacks the infrastructure to scale. The UK just pledged another $1 billion to expand computing power by 20 times, adding to its $17 billion push to become an AI superpower.

📊 Chart of the day

China is very clearly winning the solar race—not just against the US, but the whole world.

There is no country with more solar energy than China—its utility-scale system sits at 880 Gigawatts currently, according to the US Energy Information Administration.

All we can say is that if China’s spending on solar energy is as much as the US and EU’s combined, it’s probably important—and America is solidly behind (though starting to grow).
