Guest Bio: Fran Finney, the wife of Hal Finney, met Hal when they were both undergraduate students at Caltech in the early 1970s. Fran pursued a career as a Physical Therapist, while enjoying the challenge of trying to keep up with her active, energetic, and brilliant husband on some of his many hobbies, which included running. On August 5, 2009, one week after their 30th Anniversary and seven months after Hal's now famous Bitcoin transaction, Hal was diagnosed with ALS. Their lives changed forever. Now Fran is determined to help find a cure for this horrific disease. The graduate of Caltech, Occidental College and USC is leading The Running Bitcoin Challenge, raising funds and awareness to help defeat ALS.

In this episode of the Coin Stories podcast, Natalie Brunell interviews John Stefanopoulos, founder of Futurebit, about the importance of decentralization in Bitcoin mining and the role of individual miners.

John discusses the recent success of their home mining device, the Apollo 2, which allows individuals to mine Bitcoin and submit blocks directly to the network, promoting censorship resistance. He emphasizes the need for more self-sovereign miners to combat the centralization of mining power and the potential risks it poses to the Bitcoin network.
