Protecting Your Bitcoin After the Coldcard Incident: Custody & Security with Becca Rubenfeld

Описание: Bitcoin security isn't just about choosing a hardware wallet anymore.

The recent Coldcard security incident reminded the Bitcoin community that protecting your Bitcoin is often more challenging than acquiring it.

Human error, inheritance planning, social engineering, and custody decisions all play a role in keeping your Bitcoin secure for the long term.

In this episode of Hosting Bitcoin, Beau Turner sits down with Becca Rubenfeld, Co-Founder and COO of AnchorWatch, to discuss how Bitcoin custody is evolving and why many individuals, businesses, and family offices are rethinking how they protect their Bitcoin.

Together, they discuss:

• What actually happened with the recent Coldcard security incident
• Why social engineering is the biggest threat to Bitcoin owners
• The differences between self-custody, collaborative custody, and multi-institution custody
• How multisignature wallets, time locks, and recovery partners improve security
• Why inheritance planning is one of the most overlooked aspects of Bitcoin ownership
• How businesses and family offices approach Bitcoin custody differently than individuals
• Why optional Bitcoin insurance is becoming increasingly important
• How AnchorWatch is working to combine security, sovereignty, and peace of mind
