Rajiv Khemani, Auradine Founder and CEO about chips, Bitcoin and AI and U.S. Mining Chip Revolution

Sergii Gerasymovych's Podcast

Rajiv Khemani, CEO and Co-Founder of Auradine talks about developing sustainable hardware infrastructure for cryptocurrency mining and artificial intelligence. Rajiv shares his experience founding four semiconductor startups and how he saw opportunities in Bitcoin mining to decentralize supply chains dominated by a few Chinese companies using inefficient silicon designs and Auradine's mission to create more efficient and sustainable Bitcoin mining equipment. At Auradine, they are developing next-generation ASIC chips using 3nm technology nodes to significantly improve mining efficiency and reduce energy consumption. Rajiv and Sergii also explore the growth of energy demands from both Bitcoin networks and AI data centers, and whether competition or collaboration will emerge between the industries to access renewable energy sources. The conversation provides insight into the technical challenges of designing specialized chips while also making progress on sustainability goals for blockchain and AI technologies.
