updated
Often, when people start really looking at their crypto security, they realize they aren't as far along the path of self custody as they hoped. To help YOU move forward in your self custody journey, we're giving you a discount on our Path to Self Custody Workshop Bundle for the month of January. Use coupon code: selfcustody4me at checkout
What is the Path to Self Custody Bundle? It's 2 Workshops + a BONUS Lesson. As you know, moving forward on the path to self custody of cryptoassets requires knowledge of keys, custody options, and security. You’ll get all of that and more with this security knowledge bundle which includes the Custody and Key Management Workshop, the Hands-on Hardware Wallet Demonstration Workshop, and a bonus lesson about Additional Security Measures that is only available in this bundle. If you've wanted to see a demonstration of exactly how to set up, test, wipe, and recover a hardware wallet, this is the workshop for you.
NOW through the end of January 2024, you can save $24 off of the regular price of $60 by using coupon code: selfcustody4me at checkout.
There's a 14 day money back guarantee, so you have time to check out the content to be sure it's right for you. You'll have access to the materials for the entire year (and probably much longer).

Video summary:
Today, we're stepping into the world of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs). Unlike decentralized cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, CBDCs are centrally controlled, and they come with strings attached. They will be used to implement anti-money laundering controls. But these controls aren't about stopping big players from making controversial purchases - they're more likely to prevent everyday folks like us from buying Bitcoin.
But CBDCs are more than just digital money. They're an integrated system of command, control, and surveillance. Money has traditionally been seen as a means of exchange, a store of value, and a unit of account, but with CBDCs, we see the emergence of a fourth aspect - money as a means of control. This shift could have significant implications, marking a kind of 'Nirvana' or dystopian end, depending on how you see it, in the evolution of money.
If you'd like to learn more about this topic, take a look at a longer talk from Andreas entitled: Money as a System of Control: youtu.be/FyK4P7ZdOK8 This talk is featured in The Internet of Money volume 3, which can be purchased in multiple languages in paperback, ebook, or audiobook: aantonop.com

Video description: Welcome back to our deep dive into the world of bitcoin. Today, we're spotlighting 'mempools', an often overlooked but crucial part of every blockchain node. Mempools are, in essence, a waiting area for unconfirmed transactions. They're used by both miners, who are looking for transactions to include in the next block, and wallets that need to keep tabs on unconfirmed payments and pending transactions.
And here's where it gets interesting - even though each node has its own mempool, they're almost identical, with over 99.99% of the transactions being the same across different mempools. This high degree of synchronicity is what makes the blockchain system work. Even in the case of a rollback, where blocks are discarded, nodes can quickly repopulate their mempools either from their own backlog or from other nodes, ensuring that no transaction gets lost in the shuffle.
So if you're into #BlockchainTechnology, #CryptocurrencyMining, or just want to know #HowBitcoinWorks, keep watching our videos to get the lowdown on these important topics. Remember to subscribe and hit the bell icon to stay updated on our latest content! #BitcoinExplained #Mempools #Decentralization

00:00:00 Start of livestream
00:00:34 Welcome and heads-up of upcoming longer answer
00:01:40 Details about Andreas' Beard
00:02:00 There is huge discussion and push for BIP 119 on Twitter at the moment. Can you pls explain the BIP, would it need a soft fork to be activated and is it ready?
00:38:02 Wrap-up from long answer, going up against the consensus dragon
00:40:20 Youtube Subscriber info and 300,000+ subscriber milestone reached
00:42:00 Thank you to Patreons
00:44:58 I would like you to rant about the EU's latest regulatory attack on non-custodial wallets and anonymous transactions, please. [Burnhard]
00:48:35 In your excellent "Path to Self Custody" workshop, re: multi-sig, you say to save the seedphrase in a separate location from our devices. Other reputable sources say re: multisig to store your key with the device from which it came. Hmm? [Lucia aka DancingCrypto]
00:55:36 Hello Andreas! Considering there are several difficulties for regular people to use a hardware wallet, what solution do you imagine in a global adoption scenario? [Hernan Gomez]
00:58:28 What is the business model or economic incentive of open source non custodial Bitcoin wallets? Do they make money at all? who covers the costs of spent resources to develop/maintain them?
1:01:24 I don't get it. You can use Coinswap or Joinmarket to break the link of your coins to their past. But aren't you just swapping your coins' past with that of a random guy's coins? Who is to say your new coins are not even more "tainted"? [zeycus]
1:05:03 I think submarine swaps are the magic bullet for privacy. Please demonstrate why this is wrong (or right) and why do so many intelligent people look at Bitcoin and see it so differently? [Jimmy Tune]
1:10:29 What's new at aantonop.com, Patreon and more
1:11:46 Do modified derivation paths provide any addtional layer of privacy or security for a Bitcoin user? What is actually happening when a wallet is asked to sign a transaction with keys that live on a branch such as m45/0/1 instead of m45/0/0?
1:17:44 Nayib Bukele is an increasingly authoritarian leader who, amongst other things, recently had journalists spied on using NSO's Pegasus spyware. Does it worry you that parts of the Bitcoin community glorify and heroize him that much? [Burnhard]
1:25:06 Upcoming events - Next Livestream June 5th

00:03:10 Welcome and start of stream (with audio issues)
00:05:00 Audio issues fixed! Start of stream again.
00:06:45 I am interested in multisig wallets but communicating instructions to my heirs how to restore that without compromising my security seems 10x more complicated than a basic passphrase wallet & seedphrase. Can you talk about DIY multisig [Ace]
00:11:20 How do hardware wallet random number generators work? How can we trust that a future backdoor won't be found that allows a hacker to predict seed phrases created by that secure element and then steal coins? Is there a guarantee that wallet devs can't read & store the seed while I make the backup? [Ace]
00:18:45 Checking in with the chat
00:19:26 Technical difficulties and addressing things
00:20.55 Andreas is back and not in "mom's basement"
00:22:41 I just read that Coinbase has cut off 25K Russian Wallets over allegations they're engaged In "suspicious and illicit activity." Maybe soon they'll start on other "sanctioned individuals." How do we live without the exchanges?
00:30:55 Now that Wasabi started to work with regulators and engage a chain analysis company - what are the easy to use tools that we can use to protect our privacy while using Bitcoin? Samourai wallet? [Anita]
00:37:41 Can you explain what WEB3 is in simple terms?
00:43:18 Thank you to our sponsors - Patreon
00:48:18 Can you explain what DAO is? Or what it means? Many coins have it in their name now, and it also seems to have a meaning that I can’t quite grasp. I’m not understanding how it’s being used in relation to cryptocurrency.
00:52:49 What is Merged Mining? What are possible applications? [Giovanni]
00:54:47 Could a Certificate of Deposit system ever work in crypto?
00:57:41 Can you fly a chopper? [Amsterdam Holland]
00:59:14 Could you merge mine ethereum classic and bitcoin or do they have to be the same algorithm [Mike Brown]
00:59:55 How private are Lightning network channels that remain open indefinitely? Can Chainanalysis get any access? What role could URLs play in compromising privacy? [CryptoLiberty]
01:04:42 what are the best metrics to gauge increase in user adoption of btc? is it just the number of recent addresses with small amounts of sats? how do you separate new addresses with small amounts on them from change addresses from wallets
01:10:43 Would you recommend your book to absolute Lightning noobs or it's better to first learn the basics and tinker a bit in advance?
01:13:27 Could you please explain the difference between interoperability between blockchains with Lightning Network and interoperability with Atomic Swaps? [Amsterdam Holland]

HODL. It's crypto-land philosophy for not selling your preferred token even when things look their most bleak. But where philosophy intersects with real-world concerns like shelter, food and the niceties of life, tactics have emerged offering both opportunities and risks. From smart contracts to bitcoin collateralized mortgages, the hosts discuss their experiences with loans in the world of crypto.

#Bitcoin #BitcoinEducation #HardwareWallet
Bitcoin maximalists – the self-described pro-Bitcoin, anti-altcoin faithful – have been around for longer than most modern crypto projects. The term was coined by Vitalik Buterin prior to Ethereum's release. Buterin intended the term to be a direct criticism of individuals with an unwavering view that Bitcoin was the only true option for cryptographic token use-cases.
In this episode as we explore the phenomenon's' motivation and roots, we also draw from Speaking of Bitcoin's extensive library. It features the very first recorded explanation of why there should only be one cryptocurrency and why should be bitcoin as explained by Hashcash inventor and bitcoin developer Adam Back . That clip is excerpted from episode 77 Mindtomatter – E77-the-adam-back-interview (December 2013) before Adam became personally involved. It's a fascinating journey and one you won't want to miss.

On this episode of Speaking of Bitcoin we discuss:
The possibility of central banks or regulators banning private 1:1 stablecoins.
The challenges faced by early, decentralized, overcollateralized stablecoins.
How negative interest rates will drive 1:1 stablecoins into fractional reserve.
The potential weaponization of unlimited money printing to take control of limited resources.
The scenario where governments freeze bank accounts connected to 1:1 backed coins in an attempt to destroy the wider crypto economy.
The Potential for mismanagement of funds by 1:1 companies and threat of a Lehman brothers 2.0
The shrinking but still dangerous dearth of transparency within the biggest stablecoin balance sheets
Why regulators can't seem to keep up with real solutions

0:04:13 Three related questions together:
Do you believe using BTC as a national currency is a good thing? If so, what are some reasons that countries should make the switch? [walter]
What are the implication of Bitcoin as legal tender. What can the IMF do or say about it? [Becker]
What do you think of the IMF telling El Salvador to remove bitcoin as legal tender?
0:11:26 What do you think about the relationship between blockchain technology and the metaverse? Is this something forced and overhyped, or is this actually a practical solution to social and financial issues? [Walter]
0:15:39 I heard that your YouTube channel got hacked, alongside many other crypto YouTubers. Do you believe this is an inside job? Is such an inside job likely or realistic at a crypto exchange?
0:19:48 In general tax on crypto gains are based on gain/loss between value at purchase date and value at sale date. When I take some BTC out of my cold wallet to sell it, how do I know what specific BTC from my previous purchases am I selling now? [Crytocat]
0:23:30 Is there any truth to the argument that bitcoin will have more than 21 million coins. The claim is the security model breaks when there are only transaction fees. What are your thoughts on this?
0:29:46 Cold storage is always air-gapped in my mind. My friend believes you can produce a hot wallet and turn it cold. Thinking "Cold"/"Hot" relates to being online or offline at a particular time, not a past or future condition. Your thoughts? [TheVoice]
0:33:45 I calculate it on excel. 21 million is approximate. if the block is created strictly every 10 minutes, even after 500 years there will be only 21,024,000 bitcoin [SinisterCr03]
0:34:52 Thank you to supporters
0:36:56 AOPP Address Ownership Proof Protocol is highly discussed right now. I think it's an glass half full/empty argument. Both sides have valid arguments. Can you explain AOPP in detail? Especially what is sent and recieved? [Becker]
0:46:34 Moxie recently wrote an article saying web3 is not decentralised because people don't want to run servers and everyone makes api calls to the same servers such as opensea do you agree? do you think web3 will be more decentralised than web2? [the swiss road to crypto]
0:52:40 Book, video info about spanish
0:54:29 Andreas, we miss your talks! I've been watching the old ones again and again and you always give new insights every time. [Giovanni]
0:57:09 Do you think that Decentralized Exchanges are a threat to Centralized ones? Is it possible to handle the same volume and get similar slippage as to the lost value in an order book spread? Is one format better than the other for high volume? [Mikheil]

As 2022 kicks into gear many of us are wondering what's in store for bitcoin and the broader crypto markets. Our lives, although our own, are driven by cycles which are often outside of our control. These cycles create the environment in which we each try to find happiness and success. But we can't see the cycles, at least not until they've come to pass and so we can't tell if this time is different until it's too late.

#DeFi #DecentralizedFinance #CryptoEducation
“Speaking of Bitcoin” hosts Adam B. Levine, Andreas M. Antonopoulos and Stephanie Murphy are joined by Rene Pickhardt, Bitcoin and Lightning Network Developer. The four lead a conversation on the still in development yet rapidly growing Lightning Network. It’s a second-layer network that enables fast, secure, private and inexpensive payments that don’t make sense to store on bitcoin’s base layer. But while that might sound ideal, it’s not simple in practice. A scrappy community of companies and developers have been pushing the tech consistently forward as the number of hard problems still to solve ticks down.
Even as early as we are, Lightning has proven to be a radical improvement on the user experience of bitcoin. On the bitcoin network, fees vary but typically range from $1–5 and complete with confirmation in an average of ten minutes. With Lightning, fees and transaction times drop dramatically: the transaction fees are generally 1/100th or 1/10th of a penny and take just seconds.
If the improvements of Lightning are clear, why isn’t everyone using it today? Listen to hear more about the challenges and solutions coming to this rapidly-evolving aspect of bitcoin.

Later, the hosts explore the still-to-come moment when the behemoths of game publishing select which blockchain or blockchains will be their native NFT layer. Are we in for a repeat of the corporate adoption story? Or will big-budget games become a new differentiating factor, elevating their chosen partners to de-facto “incumbent” status?

Full node clients vs. lite clients: Are federated servers the future?
A recent letter addressed to the social media giant from five democratic senators laid it out clearly; There's simply no way Meta (formerly Facebook) will be allowed, much less trusted, to run a supra-national stablecoin. It's a stance many agree with but it brings up a larger and much more controversial question. If one of the biggest, most successful consumer-facing companies in the world can't do it, who could?

Join hosts Adam B. Levine, Jonathan Mohan and Andreas M. Antonopoulos as they dissect the October global financial stability report from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) subtitled “COVID-19, Crypto and Climate: Navigating Challenging Transitions.” An entire chapter of the report is dedicated to destabilization factors crypto poses, at least as identified by the IMF. It even coined a new term, “cryptoization,” to refer to the introduction and/or substitution of crypto in emerging markets.
Although worries of supply shocks, supply chain inflation and stagflation fill headlines, the IMF placed crypto in the top three stability concerns. Is the organization gearing up to poise crypto as the scapegoat in case of an oncoming financial crisis?
The IMF has outlined yet another set of concerns it holds about crypto. Is crypto really the problem, or is the IMF just afraid of the things it cannot control?
