This is a must listen for anyone who owns Bitcoin or values #freedom. Self custody is under attack behind the scenes. We all knew it was coming but it’s here now.

It starts with certain wallet software and hardware being approved and then comes the backdoors. Being open source isn’t a silver bullet either. Remember the xz backdoor [1]?

I work for a major government and a year ago I decided I didn't like what I was seeing and what I was doing in my job.

So I decided to speak up. Since then, I've been on the TFTC podcast, have spoken at adopting Bitcoin in El Salvador, and just now did a session with Stefan Livera.

I can't stress enough the importance of what is happening. Countries are losing the ability to be self-sovereign and to decide what happens to their citizens, which means less accountability for you and for me on the policies that actually impact our lives.

Have a listen if you want to know more
