DISAPPEAR HERE: Personal Privacy & Security for Bitcoiners (w/ Alec Harris & Rob Wallace)

About this episode

The episode discusses the risks of personal privacy and security for Bitcoin users, highlighting how easily one can be tracked and targeted.

Everyone is discoverable. But how does someone actually go from knowing your handle to knowing your address? Between data brokers, leaky apps, and a decade plus of KYC, the line between "online footprint" and "someone showing up at your door" is thinner than most people realize. Join Rob Wallace ( Bitcoin News ) and Alec Harris (CEO havenX ) for a real conversation about how Bitcoiners (and honestly, everyone) are getting tracked and targeted... plus the perimeters, digital and physical, that hold up in practice. You don't want to miss this. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Welcome home. PubKey is a bar and cultural venue located in New York City and Washington D.C. (With more locations coming!)
