The Game Theory FORCING Nation-States to Mine Bitcoin | Bitcoin 2025

As the world wakes up to the strategic value of Bitcoin, nation-states are being pulled into the mining game—not by ideology, but by game theory. In this high-stakes panel from Bitcoin 2025, mining leaders from Foundry, Alps Blockchain, NiceHash, and PRTI break down why governments can no longer afford to ignore hash rate, blockspace, and censorship resistance.

Hosted by Mags Gronowska, the panel explores how energy sovereignty, rule of law, and monetary policy intersect with Bitcoin mining—and why nations like Bhutan, Oman, and the U.S. are quietly preparing for a future where access to blockspace is national security.

Whether you're a miner, policymaker, or Bitcoiner thinking in decades, this discussion will change how you view the global mining map.
