Maximilian Obwexer

Founder & CEO, 21energy

CEO of 21energy, the Austrian company that turned Bitcoin mining into a heating system — with thousands of devices already warming homes across Europe while securing the network. Now partnered with one of Europe’s largest heating manufacturers to build a Bitcoin-powered central heating system designed to replace the continent’s millions of gas boilers. Bitcoin is not just the future of money — it’s how Europe will heat its homes, stabilize its grid, and reclaim energy sovereignty.
