In his fervor for all things Bitcoin, he soon began experimenting with Bitcoin node hardware and software in 2019. Mining was the natural progression. He started mining at home with just one miner. Shortly thereafter he built an outbuilding on his property to increase his mining capacity. During the process he visited medium sized mining operations in Florida, Iowa, and Georgia for education. He also helped with building and management of a medium size mining farm small farm in Georgia that utilizes excess energy at a manufacturing facility. Kevin has authored educational articles and blog posts for various Bitcoin related websites such as Bitcoin magazine and Ungovernable Misfits.

Kris Konicki

Customer Success Specialist

Kris is based in Northern Michigan. He began his Bitcoin journey in late 2018 after his business needed to accept online payments while his card processor was down. After selling his business, he knew his next path would lead to Bitcoin. Eager to learn as much as he could, he dove into GPU mining, which quickly progressed to ASIC mining. He started mining inside his home with just one ASIC miner and some GPUs. Over time, he built a dedicated outbuilding to increase his mining capacity and improve efficiency. While doing so, he continued down the Bitcoin rabbit hole, learning and absorbing as much information as possible, and earning numerous blockchain certifications. He has helped build a small/medium sized mining farm inside a manufacturing facility outside of Detroit and assisted many other small-scale miners with their setups. Kris has a passion for Bitcoin and loves helping fellow miners on their journeys.
