Deep Dive

Chapters
The discussion explores whether Bitcoin is inherently political, considering its foundational principles and how it contrasts with traditional, increasingly politicized currencies like the dollar.
  • Bitcoin's core protocol is apolitical as it trusts math over fallible humans.
  • Bitcoin stands in contrast to politicized currencies by being harder to manipulate.
  • Bitcoin's network is a set of rules that is inherently political but lacks ideology.

Shownotes Transcript

In this previous episode of Final Settlement, I joined the show to tackle custodial threat vectors and the security challenges unique to Bitcoin. We discussed Bitcoin as apolitical money and its role as a digital bearer instrument, which brings with it the complex issue of secure custody. I shared insights from a recent personal security incident when my room was broken into at a Bitcoin conference in Lugano, underscoring the very real risks we face.

We explored the evolution of Bitcoin custody, the importance of multisig setups, and the approach of Onramp’s Multi-Institution Custody in mitigating custodial threats. Raising awareness about these risks is essential, and this conversation offered important takeaways for anyone looking to secure their Bitcoin. It’s a crucial discussion worth revisiting as the industry continues to grow.
