The Infrastructure Race: Bitcoin Mining Meets AI with Taylor Towler and Bill Schneider

Digital Gold Podcast

In this episode of Digital Gold, JohnPaul sits down with Taylor Towler, CEO of Solomon Data Systems, and Bill Schneider, a veteran sourcing and energy contracts expert, to explore the collision of Bitcoin mining, AI infrastructure, and the modern power grid. The conversation dives into Taylor’s rise from scrappy Bitcoin miner to 250 MW data center developer, Bill’s perspective on the political and structural failures of U.S. energy policy, and how AI’s explosive demand is reshaping both grid economics and opportunity for miners. Together they break down how to scale from 1 MW to 250 MW, why modular and behind-the-meter generation will define the next wave of digital infrastructure, and what it really means to build resilient, sovereign systems in an age of automation and scarcity.
