With the recent Coldcard wallet exploit that allowed attackers to recreate wallet recovery phrases and steal Bitcoin from what users believed were securely self-custodied wallets, Cincinnati Bitcoiners are pivoting this session to an open roundtable on the news. We’ll give a short overview of what happened, share a few key security considerations, and leave most of the session for questions and group discussion. Since this is still developing, the focus will be on learning together, comparing notes, and thinking carefully about best practices.

We will reschedule the How Silent Payment Make Bitcoin More Private session.
