  • BVP | #018: The Truth about Bitcoin in Venezuela

    The other day I commented on @danheld 's tweet about Venezuela and I was soon inundated by other Venezuelans commenting that the situation was different than what I was telling. I felt like it would be appropriate to invite all those that commented and the biggest names in Bitcoin Venezuela to actually describe what was the real hard truth about Bitcoin in Venezuela. I hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as I enjoyed recording it and talking to these awesome Bitcoiners.

  • BVP | #008: CoboVault ft. creator Lixin Liu

    CoboVault is the only hardware wallet that is completely air-gapped by design. It has no USB plug-ins, it is powered by battery and can only interact with data through an SD card. It physically cannot be connected to a computer which truly makes this one of the coldest hardware wallets around.  

     I talk to Lixin Liu; the creator of the device about what his design philosophy was and asked him some difficult questions from other hardware wallet manufacturers including NVK the designer of the COLDCARD wallet.   Enjoy :)
