Today's guest is Piers Cockram, the founder & CEO of Mineracks, a Brisbane-based Bitcoin company that offers ASIC sales & hosting, as well as Bitcoin self-custody training for both beginners & seasons veterans alike.

Piers' technical background makes him the ideal guest to breakdown some of the more technical concepts in Bitcoin - from encryption & entropy through to best practices for minimising trust in a wallet setup.

It's difficult to overstate the importance of getting your security setup done properly. One of the beautiful things about Bitcoin is self-custody, but with with great power comes great responsibility!

One day your stack could be worth 6,8 or 8 figures - so making sure your setup is robust will go a long way to helping you sleep safely at night.
