Lars Näther

Lead Software Developer, Bitaxe

I believe mining should be in the hands of the many, not the few. As the lead developer of Bitaxe, I’ve spent the last three years building open-source alternatives to closed-source, proprietary mining giants. I’m a firm believer in the “Don’t Trust, Verify” ethos—not just for nodes, but for the silicon and software that secures the network.
