A self-proclaimed white hat hacker exploited Blockstream's Liquid Network, minting fake LBTC and draining nearly 4,000 Bitcoin worth around $320M. The funds were held on-chain during public negotiations conducted through blockchain messages, with 85% eventually returned and around 600 BTC kept as a claimed 'consultancy fee'. This breakdown explains how the Liquid hack happened, what it reveals about federated sidechains, custodial risk, and Bitcoin security. We also cover UK mandatory phone surveillance and digital ID proposals, arrests for communications offenses, rising Europe-Russia tensions, LG TV privacy concerns, plus our Donkeys of the Week, who are offering the opportunity to own...

The creator of SeedSigner — a former cop turned stay-at-home dad turned open-source Bitcoin developer — joins Michael Jordan to break down the ColdCard entropy bug, what it revealed about hardware wallet trust, and why NVK waged a years-long campaign against the SeedSigner project. "Seed" explains how SeedSigner's intentional statelessness and air-gapped design minimizes the trust required from non-technical users, what actually happened with the OpenSats funding rejections, why DIY cold storage is more accessible than the Bitcoin community gives it credit for, and his strong take on why cloud-connected multi-sig solutions like BitKey are the wrong lesson to lear...

The ColdCard hack sent shockwaves through Bitcoin's self-custody movement. Is this the end for CoinKite, or part of a much broader attack on self-custody? In this episode, Michael, Tony, and Katie unpack the AI-assisted breaches hitting BTCPay Server and Lightning wallets, Strategy branding itself the "central bank of Bitcoin," BlackRock lowering IBIT minimums, and Simon Dixon's framework for seeing it all as a coordinated assault on Bitcoin sovereignty. —------------------------ 🔑 Learn how to take 100% self-custody of your Bitcoin: https://www.thebitcoinway.com/services/bitcoin-self-custody-training?utm_source=tbw&utm_medium=fountain&utm_campaign=bitcoin-banter&utm_conte...

Self-custody isn't complete without verification. If you're not running a Bitcoin node, you're still trusting someone else's computer to confirm your balance and transactions. Tony explains what a Bitcoin node actually does, why nodes (not miners) enforce Bitcoin's rules, and how thousands of node operators stopped the 2017 block size increase. Running your own Bitcoin node is the missing piece of true Bitcoin self-custody, and it's easier than you think. Learn how to get started with anything from a plug-and-play device to an old laptop, and take the final step toward real Bitcoin sovereignty. ================= 🔑 Ready to run...
