BTC Sessions

In this electrifying episode of Mentor Sessions, we dive deep with NVK, the enigmatic founder of Coinkite and mastermind behind the Coldcard wallet, including the sleek new Coldcard Q (yes, I’m a fan too!). NVK unpacks adversarial thinking—the paranoid art of outsmarting attackers before they strike. From designing bulletproof Bitcoin hardware to everyday OpSec blunders (porn and banking on the same browser, anyone?), NVK reveals why only the paranoid survive in a world of infinite threats. Plus, hilarious tangents, real-world horror stories, and a surprising twist on staying invisible. Are you ready to rethink security?Timestamps: • 00:00 – Intro: Meet NVK & Coinkite’s Coldcard Legacy • 00:57 – What is Adversarial Thinking?
