With Dmitry Tokarev, Founder of BRON, on why the seed phrase is on its way out and what self custody looks like when institutional-grade security finally reaches everyone.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Why the private key is never assembled in one place, so there is nothing to steal and nothing to keep in cold storage
- Why security technology follows the same path as GPS, from governments and militaries to institutions to everyone
- Guardians and approval rules, including requiring sign-off from an accountant or assistant on transactions over a set amount
- What protects your assets if you are physically threatened or kidnapped
- The hidden account feature that lets you pin a balance so it disappears from your own interface
- Why physical security has quietly become one of the biggest topics in crypto
- Why no security model can rest on the promise that you will not get hacked, especially against Lazarus and North Korean operations
- Where DeFi goes next, and why its real value is orchestration and risk management, not just holding assets in smart contracts
- Why the "boring" problems, like wills and inheritance, are usually the ones that matter most
