In this episode, Ian Andrews is joined by trust and safety practitioner,  Philip Martin (Chief Security Officer at Coinbase) who describes how Coinbase prioritized security in the early days in order to build a strong foundation of consumer protection and how they implement Multi-Party Computation (MPC) in their  wallet infrastructure.
