Chapters
Show Notes
Rev and Reed reconnect after a heavy few weeks in Bitcoin, opening with meetup updates and Rev's recap of Lake Satoshi, before diving into the fallout from the Coldcard hardware wallet vulnerability that cost some community members their savings. The hosts unpack how centralized hardware wallet hype spread through podcast sponsorships and Twitter and became an attack vector, and argue that decentralized, meetup-based knowledge-sharing is the better defense going forward. They close with Local Bitcoiners Leaderboards and an extended Boosts segment, including a lump-sum donation of episode proceeds to the Samurai Wallet developers.

Child labor could solve more than just Bitcoin. (Consensual child labor, of course.)
I started working at my mom's salon on the weekends when I was 12, and I can say it shaped who I am today.
My husband and I often talk about wanting our kids to become well-rounded adults who know how to complete tasks and help out around the house.
It builds teamwork and gives them a sense of pride too.
Plus, young minds think outside the box and bring fresh perspectives to ideas we as adults might be stuck on. 🔥🔥🔥
