    COIN BASED: BRCA, Liquid Hack, Red Team Update

    The Coin Based boys are back for another emergency broadcast—this time, officially brought to you by Anchorwatch. Host Thomas Pacchia sits down with arbedout, Alex Thorn, and Rob Hamilton to make sense of current Bitcoin discourse. They cover how much was really stolen from Coldcard and who's still at risk, how a bug let someone mint bitcoin out of thin air on Liquid, whether the person draining it is a "white hat" or an extortionist, and why the CLARITY Act died at the last minute in Washington. 0:00 INTRO: An emergency broadcast on Coldcard, Liquid & Clarity 2:11 Coldcard update: 1,807 bitcoin gone, and the victims left behind 9:29 Is any single hardware wallet safe now? 13:33 Did Coinkite's arrogance make it worse? 17:13 How the attacker actually cracked the wallets 24:52 Could the same bug hit other wallets?

    DISAPPEAR HERE: Personal Privacy & Security for Bitcoiners (w/ Alec Harris & Rob Wallace)

    Everyone is discoverable. But how does someone actually go from knowing your handle to knowing your address? Between data brokers, leaky apps, and a decade plus of KYC, the line between "online footprint" and "someone showing up at your door" is thinner than most people realize. Join Rob Wallace (Bitcoin News) and Alec Harris (CEO havenX) for a real conversation about how Bitcoiners (and honestly, everyone) are getting tracked and targeted... plus the perimeters, digital and physical, that hold up in practice. You don't want to miss this. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Welcome home. PubKey is a bar and cultural venue located in New York City and Washington D.C. (With more locations coming!)
