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.
