  • Surviving the Kidnap Threat | The Confab 28: Kevin Loaec

    In this Confab, Max sit down with Kevin Loaec, CEO of WizardSardine, for a frank discussion on the surge in coordinated, violent Bitcoin-related kidnappings in France and broader personal security lessons for anyone holding wealth. They explore practical, non-technical measures—community awareness, operational silence, modest living, and physical deterrents—alongside technical defences that reduce attacker incentives. Kevin explains why the threat was “late but inevitable,” how societal factors may be fuelling the crime wave, and why relocation and strong local networks can matter as much as any wallet setup.

    Max and Kevin discuss Liana, WizardSardine’s time-locked, Taproot-powered wallet. Kevin breaks down inheritance-first design, decaying/expanding policies, and how time locks can prevent premature access while enabling robust recovery for families and businesses—without revealing recovery paths on-chain. They cover miniscript device support (what works today and what’s missing), fee/UX trade-offs, future payjoin integrations, and how to pair Liana with spending wallets or Lightning for better privacy. If you’ve ever worried about $5 wrench attacks, estate planning, or operational resilience, this one’s essential listening.

  • Save In Bitcoin, Spend in Monero | THE UNBOUNDED SERIES: Seth For Privacy

    In this special series, Max shares why we’re hosting and preserving the Unbounded archive at Ungovernable Misfits. In the third re-release of the series, Seth For Privacy — educator, builder and VP at Cake Wallet joins TBD.

    Seth brings a candid, practical nuance to the state of Bitcoin and Monero, the realities of social media and education, and what “good enough privacy” means for everyday people versus targeted dissidents. Seth and TBD dig into saving in Bitcoin, spending in Monero, the impact of the Samourai Wallet case, why PayJoin V2 and silent payments matter, and how adoption—not tribalism—will determine the future of digital sovereignty.

    Seth shares a pragmatic optimism: we’re winning in usability and tooling, but only if we keep building, learning and refusing false binaries. We explore the current crossroads for Bitcoin privacy, the legal chill from Tornado Cash/Samourai prosecutions, Nostr versus X for reach, and Monero’s resilience amid delistings.

    Seth outlines practical advice for non-technical users, red lines for builders, and his long-view goal: tools that let individuals opt out of broken systems and into freedom—no permission required.

    Stay resilient, and enjoy the series as we continue with Pavel and Colonial in the weeks ahead.
