Welcome back to The Blockspace Podcast! Today, we open with a stock update, focusing on Galaxy Digital and CleanSpark’s announcements for base load and studied load classification under ERCOT’s Batch Zero. For interviews, Acre Security CEO Kumar Sokka joins to discuss the ins-and-outs of data center security, and Lygos Finance CEO Jay Patel unpacks Kraken’s M&A strategy as it eyes an IPO. To bookend the show, we scrutinize the AI doomerism leaking from Anthropic following X posts from a former engineer and its head of alignment regarding AI’s perceived existential risk to humanity.
