Gabby Donald and Paul Noble return to one of our favourite topics – The Budget! Following the Chancellor’s rather unusual breakfast briefing - did it really tell us anything new? With Bonfire Night still in the air, Gabby wonders if this was the moment when the manifesto pledges finally went on the bonfire. Paul turns to the world of tax and gambling - while your winnings might be tax-free, it’s still worth keeping a record, just in case the taxman fancies a look at your lucky streak. With limited guidance and new rules arriving under the Crypto Asset Reporting Framework the taxation of crypto assets is fast evolving, Gabby and Paul warn this will result in more questions for people with Crypto assets.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welkom terug bij Radio Raccoons! De voorbije twee weken waren zo gevuld met technieuws, dat Deevid en Michiel in deze aflevering zelfs geen gaatje vonden voor een deep dive. OpenAI kwam in deze periode naar buiten met tal van nieuwtjes, waaronder een eigen browser, een muziekgeneratiemodel en zelfs een aardvarken dat als security fungeert. Verder hebben ze het over de nieuwe XR-brillen van Samsung en Alibaba, een omstreden wetsvoorstel dat werd afgekeurd en Elon Musk die Wikipedia het vuur aan de schenen legt - of dat toch probeert te doen. In zijn Glazen Bol ziet Deevid dan weer een toekomst vol AI-gestuurde ledematen.

With Igor Data, CEO and co-founder of Blin Analytics, we dig into the real mechanics of crypto crime and why the difference between loss and recovery often comes down to minutes, not months. Igor pulls back the curtain on demixing methods, behavior pattern analysis, and how AI and automation sift millions of transactions before a human makes the call. The theft may be digital, but the tells are human: tempo, timing, liquidity choices, and the inevitable mistake that cracks a years-long laundering chain.We unpack how mixers actually work, why law enforcement pressure has reshaped their use, and what it takes to trace funds from wallet to exchange in a way that stands up to scrutiny. Ethics are non-negotiable here: no release of sensitive leads without a confirmed case and a verified victim, and evidence goes to police to request KYC and freezes. That principle reflects a deeper theme—trust the math, not the marketing. Blockchain's transparency is architectural, while personal privacy must be preserved until due process kicks in.The conversation turns practical and strategic. You'll hear why phishing still dominates loss events, how to design a 24/7 incident playbook that actually gets funds frozen, and what role game theory plays in predicting laundering routes. We explore the case for ultra-low-cost microtransactions to reduce the web's dependence on surveillance ads, and we look ahead to the near future: AI-powered anomaly detection, black-market evasion tools, and why decentralized trust still pairs best with centralized enforcement. If you hold digital assets, lead a security team, or want a clear-eyed view of blockchain investigations, this is your blueprint for acting fast, staying ethical, and seeing patterns where others see noise.If this conversation helped you think differently about crypto security and digital trust, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway or question—we read every one.Send us a textSupport the showCheck out "Protection for the Inventive Mind" – available now on Amazon in print and Kindle formats.

What happens when your grandmother gives you $— and you put all of it into Bitcoin?That decision turned Erik Finman into one of the youngest Bitcoin millionaires in the world. In this episode of The Dillon England Show, we unpack his wild story: from buying Bitcoin at $10 a coin to hitting $1M at just 18 years old, and how that early win shaped his view on money, innovation, and freedom.We go deep on crypto, AI, censorship, and America's future — why Erik believes blockchain technology like Optio will redefine social media, why free speech is at risk, and how decentralized platforms like Parler can protect truth in the digital age.This is part tech, part philosophy, and part wake-up call. We talk about:-How AI could make work optional (and what that means for purpose)-What really happened to America's work ethic-The untold story of Bitcoin's early days and his viral protest that started it all-The Kennedy legacy, government overreach, and COVID-era manipulation-The future of blockchain-based social platforms that can't be silencedIf you care about innovation, free speech, or the next generation of builders — this one's worth your full attention.1:00 Intro03:07 From Crypto to Politics04:50 Class, Culture, and Free Speech in the UK vs. US07:00 America's Decline in Work Ethic10:00 Boeing, Maintenance, and the Hidden Crisis13:00 Moon Landing and American Ingenuity17:00 How AI Will Replace Jobs (and Why That's Good)20:00 Robots, Family, and the Future of Parenting26:00 The AI Economy: Two Classes of People30:00 Generational Wealth, Parenting, and Purpose33:00 The Kennedy Legacy & Family Lessons37:00 The Protest That Introduced Him to Bitcoin39:00 Bitcoin at $100: How He Made $1M by 1845:00 Why Free Speech Needs Blockchain49:00 The Twitter Files and Government Censorship55:00 COVID, Fauci, and The Collapse of Trust1:03:00 The Boomer Mindset vs Modern Culture1:05:00 Final Thoughts + The Future of Parler & Optio

In this episode, Kevin Bowers returns to explain Jump's expansion from trading to core infrastructure, centered on what he calls the "great inversion": the real bottleneck in tech isn't compute, but data and I/O. He introduces Shelby, a new storage network, as a direct challenge to the "Hotel California for Data" model used by cloud providers. This same focus on efficient data flow—not just processing power—was the key to scaling Solana with Fire Dancer. Finally, Kevin explains how FPGAs from high-frequency trading are the critical hardware solution, allowing blockchains to bypass software's inefficient "Tower of Babel" and "get close to the wire" for true high performance. 00:00 - Expanding Beyond Trading and the Vision for Shelby 02:31 - Challenges in Storage and Data Management 04:37 - Building High-Performance Systems 08:04 - The Evolution of Jump's Technology 11:55 - The Economics of Cloud Storage 29:07 - Fire Dancer and Frankendancer 42:03 - The Cost of Optimization 42:48 - Machine Learning and Custom Networks 43:47 - Project Prioritization and Entropy 46:48 - Challenges in High-Performance Computing 56:38 - The Role of FPGAs in Trading and Blockchain 01:13:45 - Future of Hardware Acceleration in Blockchain 01:18:54 -Conclusion and Final Thoughts Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Sci-fi titan Neal Stephenson, whose Snow Crash coined the term "metaverse" and Cryptonomicon sketched the contours of crypto, joins Friederike to talk about his foray into championing empowering creators with direct micropayments and IP sovereignty, without the data-exploiting enclosures of Web2, with Lamina1 as its co-founder. Neal unpacks his detached craft plausible worlds that inadvertently blueprint reality while cautioning against Web3's traps: Criminal stigma, abysmal UX alienating normies, and risks of becoming surveillance superhighways or bank shiny toys. Spotlighting Lamina 1's launch with "Artifact" (a Weta-forged sci-fi game), he envisions success as creative output flourishing where blockchain fades to the background.

In this conversation, Peter and Chris discuss the Cardano Foundation's initiative to acquire top-level domain names through ICANN, emphasizing the importance of community support and intellectual property. They explore the integration of Web2 and Web3 technologies, particularly through the Handshake project, and the development of trustless systems using smart contracts. The discussion also highlights the differences between various Web3 domain systems and the significance of community engagement in shaping the future of these initiatives.TakeawaysThe Cardano Foundation is seeking community support for acquiring top-level domains.ICANN's opening for new domains is a rare opportunity.Intellectual property in domain names is crucial for brand protection.Domains can be seen as the original NFTs, unique and valuable.Integrating Web2 and Web3 can enhance user experience and accessibility.The Handshake project aims to decentralize domain name management.Smart contracts can facilitate trustless interactions in domain ownership.Lower friction in accessing domain services is essential for adoption.Community engagement is vital for the success of the Cardano domain initiative.The proposal is a long-term vision that requires ongoing support.Sound bites"Domains are the original NFT.""This is pretty big.""This is an absolute winner."Chapters00:00 Introduction to Cardano's Domain Name Initiative02:48 Understanding ICANN and Top-Level Domains06:09 The Importance of Intellectual Property in Domain Names08:58 Integrating Web2 and Web3: The Handshake Project11:53 Building Trustless Systems with Smart Contracts15:06 Comparing Web3 Domains: Handshake vs. Unstoppable Domains17:58 Community Engagement and Future ProspectsDISCLAIMER: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and is not financial, investment, or legal advice.

The post quantum encryption migration is going to be a challenge, but how much of a challenge? There are several reasons why it is different from every other protocol and cypher iteration in the past. Is today's hardware up to the task? Is it just swapping out a library, or is there more to it? What is the extent of software, systems, and architecture that have to be updated or replaced to complete the migration? Can we get it all done by 2030? Sandy Carielli and Martha Bennett join us to answer these questions and dive into one area of tech that hasn't been discussed much when it comes to post-quantum encryption: blockchain.

CypherStack is a privacy-focused research and development company behind Stack Wallet. Diego handles strategy while Brandon and Luke lead the mathematical research for Monero. They discussed their contributions to FCMPs, a major upgrade aimed at improving Monero's privacy and scalability. While critics from the Zcash community call FCMPs “unproven,” the team explained that it uses well-established mathematics, not untested theory. They also compared Monero's community-driven model with Zcash's corporate structure, noting strengths and trade-offs in both approaches. Despite praising Zcash's Halo 2 privacy tech, they argue Monero's privacy-by-default design gives it a real-world edge.On timelines, Diego said FCMPs are “three steps from the finish line” but still tackling technical challenges. The episode ends with a candid look at funding struggles in open-source development and a call for continued community support.

Want a Halloween scare that sticks with you after the candy's gone? We're pouring a glass and pulling back the curtain on the creepiest corners of everyday tech: a cloud outage that toppled major apps and smart beds, a Prime refund saga with fine-print timelines, and Amazon's bold plan to swap 600,000 human jobs for robots by 2033. The number that matters isn't the 30 cents shaved off a product; it's the blast radius when a single point of failure hits everything from payments to sleep pods.We go deeper with cybersecurity expert Nick Espinosa to map the new threat surface. He breaks down a jaw-dropping study showing unencrypted geostationary satellite traffic—airline passenger data, critical infrastructure chatter, even U.S. and Mexican military communications—floating for the taking. Then we connect the surveillance dots: Ring's partnership with Flock could feed millions of doorbells into a searchable police network. With Ring's track record, do you want your front porch in a national database accessible by natural-language prompts?The uncanny valley gets crowded too. A widower claims an AI replica of Suzanne Somers “feels indistinguishable,” while OpenAI prepares to allow “mature” content for verified adults. We weigh the supposed benefits against the hard psychology: isolation, distorted attachment, and empathy atrophy. For a lighter fright, we test the viral claim that Teslas see “ghosts” in cemeteries—spoiler: that's what a cautious perception model looks like when tombstones confuse it. The real nightmare? Attackers hiding malware inside blockchain smart contracts, using decentralization to dodge takedowns and $2 fees to keep it cheap.From airline IT meltdowns to smart contract exploits, the pattern is clear: concentration of power and data magnifies risk. Redundancy, privacy-by-design, and failure-aware engineering aren't nice-to-haves—they're the only way through. Grab your headphones and your favorite pour, then join us for a tour of the haunted infrastructure underneath daily life.Enjoyed the ride?

In this episode, Lex speaks with Jess Houlgrave, CEO of WalletConnect. In this episode Jess explains how WalletConnect bridges wallets and decentralized applications (dApps), simplifying secure blockchain interactions for millions of users.Together, Lex and Jess discuss the platform's origins, technical innovations, and massive scale - supporting over 700 wallets and 70,000 projects. The conversation covers challenges in integrating traditional finance with Web3, regulatory compliance, and WalletConnect's decentralized, token-incentivized network. Jess also shares insights on the future of on-chain commerce, global adoption trends, and the evolving relationship between fintech and blockchain infrastructure.NOTABLE DISCUSSION POINTS:WalletConnect Becomes Web3's Financial Backbone: Once a simple UX fix, WalletConnect now connects 700+ wallets and 70,000+ apps, moving $400B annually. It's evolving into the universal connectivity layer for on-chain finance - a “Visa for Web3.”Fintechs Are Forcing Crypto to Grow Up: As players like Stripe and Shopify enter Web3, they demand frictionless UX and regulatory-grade compliance, not crypto-native clunkiness. This wave will make crypto invisible but usable through embedded fintech experiences.Stablecoins Will Power On-Chain Commerce and Dollarization: Jess predicts commerce, not trading, will drive the next cycle. As stablecoins become spendable everywhere, users won't need to off-ramp - accelerating global dollarization via open financial rails. TOPICSWalletConnect, ReOWN, Circle, Stripe, Checkout.com, MetaMask, Solana, blockchain, decentralized finance, DeFi, crypto, wallet, Web3, web2, UX, wallet infrastructure, stablecoins, tokens, token economy ABOUT THE FINTECH BLUEPRINT
