New York, NY, 12 November 2019 – At New York Consensus Invest Summit, Evercoin Inc. today announced Evercoin 2, the “safest hardware wallet”. Evercoin 2 provides a wallet and exchange for bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies featuring a hardware wallet the size of a house key powered by YubiKey 5ci, the first implementation of its kind. Prior to this, users wanting hardware security relied on large, difficult to use and not mobile-first first-generation hardware wallets like Ledger and Trezor. Now every compatible YubiKey owner can download a free hardware wallet. Evercoin provides all of the financial services users expect from a service like Coinbase, but for the first time ever in a mobile wallet, secured by hardware and fully controlled by the user. Evercoin currently supports 20 assets including Bitcoin and Ethereum. Crypto users aren't safe. Here are some of the threats we can address with the new combined offering from Evercoin and Yubico: Hack attacks: hackers can gain access to private keys, the result can be total loss of all assets. Exchange hacks: crypto exchanges can be hacked or go out of business causing loss of funds. Key loss: users can lose all of their assets by forgetting private keys, losing paper wallets, exposing keys to bad actors, losing hardware devices. Chainalysis estimates that 2-3 million bitcoins have been lost permanently in this way. Other user errors: users can input the wrong address when sending transactions Volatility: volatility of crypto prices can dramatically crash the value of user assets. ID Theft: hackers can steal a user's account and identities thus enabling a host of attacks on the user's accounts and assets. “Wrench” attacks: attacks involving a physical threat to your person. Phishing Attacks: user email and social networking accounts can be compromised and information and assets can then be stolen from their friends and social network.

Coinbase is notoriously crash-prone and recently every time Bitcoin prices change it seems to crash. The big problem with this of course is that that's when you want to trade. This is obviously unacceptable!

In this episode of Silicon Valley Insider, Keith Koo’s special guest is Miko Matsumura, General Partner of Gumi Ventures and founder of U.S. based virtual currency exchange Evercoin. Miko shares how his passion for open-source software began as a Java evangelist for SUN Microsystem and how that passion led to Miko to embrace the decentralized world of Bitcoin, Cryptocurrency and blockchain ecosystem as they are fundamentally built on top of open-source standards so that he is now widely known as a blockchain and cryptocurrency evangelist. Miko and Keith also discuss how blockchain and cryptocurrency adoption has still not yet hit the mainstream and that is in part due to the fear, uncertainty, and doubt associated with many stories related to safety and security of these digital assets. Miko started a website called www.safercrypto.org to address this need and gives brief descriptions of some of the tools available for people to keep themselves safe. Miko and Keith also discuss the economic effects of “money-printing” and why people consider cryptocurrency as a hedge. On this week’s Cyber-Tip, Keith gives a warning on the rise of phishing based cyber-attacks under cover of “contact tracing”.

Miko Matsumura - Serial Entrepreneur, Venture Partner & Co-Founder of EvercoinMiko took a winding career road from pure science to Silicon Valley where he caught the start-up bug. After a foray at a large company, he went “from zero to one” and launched a series of start-ups. In 2016, he became interested in crypto and soon started Evercoin, a crypto service based in self-custody and ownership. In the episode, he raises some key questions: if money will poison open source or if open source will liberate money and make it more virtuous, if open source is essentially a bubble that will burst in investors’ faces, and if there’s a benefit to the crypto volatility that points to its rising fame. Hear Miko’s take on the beauty of the Internet, how crypto is the first protocol for storing and transmitting economic value on the Internet, and the future of open source currency.  Connect with Miko here https://miko.com and on LinkedIn:

Over the past couple years we’ve seen a number of crypto wallets designed to offer security to coin holders. We’ve been big fans of the Trezor and Ledger wallets, but some new technologies are creating opportunities for digital wallets to become even safer. Evercoin now claims to be the safest cryptocurrency wallet and exchange. Evercoin co-founders Miko Matsumura and Talip Ozturk join us today to discuss their latest update and how their integration with the Yubikey make their wallet the safest one available. What do you get when you combine a spicy password, a dash of biometrics, a sprinkle of 2FA, a dollop of hardware security and a jar of nutella? We’re not really sure, but at least part of it sounds tasty.

It’s All Happening is back from a self-imposed hiatus with the genius of Miko Matsumura. Miko goes beyond his role as tech titan and takes you into a profound vision where technology, consciousness, spirituality and the human condition all dance together in a divinely orchestrated goal for the future. Our conversation covered the implications of the blockchain, why the end user matters and how to make sense of economic chaos. Keeping up with Miko is a task, let me tell you. He is a big brain, big heart human that is one of the finest thinkers around today.

We spoke to four experts with diverse skillsets: 1. Roger Ver - Founder and CEO of Bitcoin.com, investor in many Bitcoin-related startups. 2. Vin Armani - Founder CEO of CoinText and developer 3. Miko Matsumura - Cofounder of Evercoin and GP gumi Cryptos venture fund 4. Gabriel Cardona - lead at developer.bitcoin.com, created BitBox And we asked them the following questions: How do you build in a bear market? Is there a chance of cryptoassets appreciating next year on the basis of fundamentals, or are we reliant on a new wave of speculators to fuel the next bull run? Will the Bitcoin Cash / Bitcoin SV hard fork matter a year from now? How will we look back at it? Vitalik Buterin recently stated on R/BTC: “at the end of the day the goal of BCH should not be to grow its community by grabbing off a few more supporters from BTC and BSV, it should be reaching out to larger communities in broader society that stand to benefit from what it has to offer.” Do you agree? And if so, how do we do this? At the end of the day, cryptocurrencies have to be used as cash, currency. How do you see usage of crypto in 2019 playing out, especially in developing countries? Let’s pretend I, Matt, was off the grid for one year, no internet, human contact … and I come back online December 2019. If you had 60 seconds to fill me in on the last 12 months, what would you say? 2019 was the year of… Will Stablecoins continue to generate attention, development and investment in 2019, or are they simply a sticking plaster for getting traders through bear markets, with their role likely to diminish once more favorable conditions return? Why will security tokens be big?

Miko Matsumura - Pete and I had a fascinating conversation with crypto pioneer, founder of EverCoin Exchange and General Partner of Gumi Cryptos, Miko Matsumura with whom we met up at Start Engine Summit.   Since our first time visiting Start Engine Summit event last year, the blockchain market has changed significantly fromfast-movingg ICOs bringing in millions for yet to be built technology platforms to one that is now adhering to a more regulatory value set in the form of STOs (Security Token Offerings). #podcast #crypto #Blockchain #Malta #StartEngineSummit
