We've talked before about the importance of self-custody for your crypto assets, but recent events have served to underscore how vital it is. In the past, we've discussed the vulnerability of exchanges to hacking and theft (ask Mt. Gox users about that) and this is still a concern, although exchange security has come on leaps and bounds since then. But, as the recent woes of platforms like Celsius and Voyager Digital have shown, hackers are not the only threat to your crypto's safety. When you keep your crypto on an exchange or a lending and borrowing platform - in short, when you entrust your crypto to another entity - you have to trust that entity to manage it properly. You do not control the private keys to your crypto under these circumstances - the platform you've entrusted it to does. And, remember that oft-repeated mantra: not your keys, not your coins. So, in this episode, we take a look at the best ways you can take charge of your crypto and store it as safely as possible. We look at ‘cold' and ‘hot' storage, discuss the best types of wallets out there and go through some simple steps you can take to protect not just your crypto, but yourself as well. This could be one of the most important podcast episodes you ever listen to. Oh, and for anyone still wondering, Mike's wallet transfer did come through, pretty much as soon as we'd stopped recording.

Most cryptocurrency exchanges are custodial, meaning they hold their users' private keys, and therefore, their funds. ShapeShift is one of the few platforms that is non-custodial, meaning it allows users to exchange digital assets without having to put their private keys outside of their own control. By pairing the KeepKey hardware wallet with ShapeShift, users will be allowed to safely store their coins on a secure physical device while trading their assets directly over the ShapeShift API, which can be reached from KeepKey's interface.Guest: Erik Voorhees -- Founder and CEO, ShapeShiftShapeshift website ➜ http://bit.ly/shapeshiftkyKeepKey website ➜ http://bit.ly/keepkeys#Shapeshift #KeepKey #Crypto~ShapeShift CEO Erik Voorhees interview | Self-Custody Crypto Wallet + KeepKey ~⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺⎺Subscribe on YouTube ✅ https://bit.ly/PBNYoutubeSubscribeFacebook

ShapeShift COO Jon explains why the KeepKey hardware wallet is special, and presents its main features.

  As any good Bitcoiner knows, your BTC is only as safe as your private keys. So, to learn more about the different hardware wallet options out there, Weekly Bits host Peter Chawaga interviews Bitcoin Magazine reporter Vlad Costea about his recent series comparing the Trezor Model T, Ledger Nano X, BitBox02, Coldcard Mk3 and KeepKey.

David Gold is ​the mastermind ​leading a project called ​FIO (Foundation for Interwallet Operability)​. ​David is a former dot com entrepreneur and 11+ year tech/blockchain venture capitalist, who believes usability must be greatly improved for Satoshi's vision of “purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash” to become a broad reality. The foundation is a consortium of leading blockchain wallets, exchanges and payments providers that seeks to accelerate blockchain adoption by reducing the risk, complexity, and inconvenience of sending and receiving cryptoassets. FIO is developing the FIO Protocol, a decentralized open-source blockchain protocol, that will enable greatly enhanced user experience inside the FIO enabled wallets, exchanges and applications of their choice. ​Erik Voorhees from ShapeShift is extremely excited about​ this project which is intended to massively improve UX of all wallet software (blockchain agnostic). Furthermore, The ​FIO Protocol ​is a new inter-wallet operability protocol that removes the risk, complexity, and inconvenience of sending and receiving tokens and coins. ShapeShift.io​, KeepKey, TrustWallet, Coinomi, MyCrypto, BRD, Edge & Mycelium are already signed up as members to the Foundation and will implement the protocol that provides an enhanced layer of usability features for existing and future wallets and exchanges - making the transfer of cryptocurrencies between wallets as simple and straightforward for consumers as making transfers on PayPal.  Bonus Live Interview! 23:40 Ian meets up with Justin Dean and Lucas Dimos from MGEN visit our show notes to learn more at www.theblockchainshow.com Socialize with us via social media: minds Facebook Twitter We'd love to hear your feedback Please contact us if you would like to ask us any questions, challenge us to improve our ideas or would like to participate in future podcasts.

Il CEO di Binance Changpeng Zhao ha annunciato, qualche giorno fa, che il nuovo DEX decentralizzato supporterà l 'interazione con i portafogli hardware direttamente dal primo giorno di mercato. In pratica gli utenti avranno il pieno controllo delle loro chiavi private in ogni momento mediante il loro wallet hardware. Binance al momento non ha parlato di quali dispositivi potranno interfacciarsi con la piattaforma, ma è molto probabile che i principali produttori del settore come Ledger, Trezor e KeepKey siano compatibili. Questa è un'ottima notizia per i possessori di hardware wallet, in quanto i fondi non devono essere inviati a un wallet sull'Exchange per operare sulla piattaforma. Binance DEX ha ufficializzato la notizia con un Twitter: Binance DEX cinguettò: #Binance DEX in active development! I programmatori stanno lavorando per sviluppare la nuova piattaforma sulla blockchain di Binance. Dex non sostituirà lo storico Exchange Binance ma integrerà nuove funzioni per una coesistenza con esso. Binance DEX utilizzerà Binance Coin (BNB) come risorsa nativa. Quali sono le novità su Binance DEX Come abbiamo detto Binance DEX è uno scambio decentralizzato , pertanto non si baserà su un servizio di terzi per detenere i fondi degli utenti. Gli scambi avverrano peer to peer tra gli stessi utenti comportando costi di transazioni quasi nulli. DEX si basa sullo stesso principio di StellarX l 'Exchange lanciato a settembre da Stellar che si basa sul token XLM ( StellarX il nuovo Exchange di Stellar (XLM) a Costo Zero). Il nuovo Exchange avrà nuove funzionalità integrate. Di seguito ti riporto tutto cio ' che sarà possibile fare con Binance DEX ( Fonte Blog Medium Binance) Inviare e ricevere BNB a chiunque sul DEX Emettere nuovi token Inviare token agli altri sul DEX e riceverne in ​​cambio Bruciare i token secondo necessità Congelare alcuni token e sbloccali in un secondo momento Proporre nuove coppie di scambio, con l'intera comunità che ha voce in capitolo sul merito dell'accoppiamento Inviare ordini di compravendita tramite coppie di trading create dalla community Come si legge dal post su Medium, Binance DEX è un progetto della comunità e come tale deve rimanere , afferma Binance. Ti invito a seguirci anche sulla nostra pagina facebook sul nostro account twitter o sulla nostra pagina Linkedin

I want to share a little bit about my thoughts on the ShapeShift layoffs. And a lot of empathy I'm having for Erik Voorhees right now. So first off, I think it's pretty cool that he was upfront about these layoffs. There are definitely things that companies can do to not let it leak out to the public that there have been layoffs. There's lot of techniques for doing that, [00:00:30] if you're into HR. And he didn't do it. He didn't do any of that, any obfuscation. He wrote a Medium post about it, and because he wrote a Medium post it was covered by almost all the crypto publications. CoinDesk. The Block, etcetera. So the headline is that they let 37 employees go. So, if you haven't heard of ShapeShift, which is unlikely if you're in the crypto space. It's a non-custodial [00:01:00] exchange. So, kind of think about exchanges as existing on this continuum between centralized exchanges on one extreme, and decentralized exchanges on another examples of centralized exchanges would be like, Coinbase or Binance. And then on the decentralized extreme, you would have decentralized exchanges like Radar Relay, Paradex, [00:01:30] etcetera. And then there's kind of hybrid decentralized exchanges like IDEX. And if you're interested in decentralized exchanges and the spectrum in general, check out the latest [inaudible 00:01:43] podcast we've done about this. It's a two part series about decentralized exchanges. It's a really deep dive. It's much more professional than this podcast. So anyway, they let 37 employees go. And when I read his blog post about doing this, [00:02:00] the thing that stuck out to me was his statement that they made 1,000 mistakes. But the most thematic of them has been lack of focus. And I really can resonate with this. You know, I think this is something that, a mistake I made in the past, and at previous companies. I think if you're a product person, [00:02:30] and you love product, there's a certain joy that comes with launching a product. And, when you launch a product and it has immediate success, like ShapeShift did. I mean, they grew incredibly fast. I think they grew 3000% in 2017. But when you have that kind of immediate success, you think it's, or you can think it's pretty repeatable, right? That you just got, you got the "It" factor and you can do it again. And again, [00:03:00] and again. So, ShapeShift not only did ShapeShift, which was their core business and brought in almost all of the revenue. They created CoinCap, which is a Nomics competitor, I guess. A CoinMarketCap competitor, etcetera. And so, that was at coincap.io. They purchased KeepKey, which is a hardware wallet. They created a smart contract, [00:03:30] like index fund thing called Prism, which I used. It was really great, I actually liked it quite a bit. But they did a bunch of things that weren't essential to their core business, probably 'cause they had a bunch of cashflow, and they could, right? It's fun to create products if you're a product person. And Eric Voorhees is. But I think [00:04:00] that's really hard to scale. I think the first thing that's hard to scale around creating multiple products is just the founding DNA. Like whatever confluence of circumstances and talents and people that led to your existing success, it's generally hard to reproduce. Like most startups fail. And whenever they work, it's a combination of skill and luck and timing and [00:04:30] a whole bunch of other factors, right? To try and do that over and over again with product after product, when you're still a startup, right? Like not when you're at Salesforce size, or Google size.

Interview location: London, UKInterview date: Fri 8th Jun 2018The Crypto space appeals to the libertarian ideals of separating money and state. Those who I have met on my podcasting journey consistently say that same thing, from tax being theft to not wanting their money stolen to pay for the war machine. Bitcoin appeals because the money supply sits outside of government control:They can't steal itThey can't inflate itThey can't control itErik Voorhees does not shy away from his opinion on the role of the state and believes that with Cryptocurrencies we have the opportunity of changing the role of government. He is a successful businessman too, from Coinapult and Satoshi Dice to Shapeshift and Keepkey, Erik has consistently built successful Crypto businesses.While touring Shapeshift around Europe, I had the chance to meet with Erik in London where we discussed his political and social views, problems with ICOs the latest on the many Shapeshift.-----If you enjoy The What Bitcoin Did Podcast you can help support the show my doing the following:Become a Patron and get access to shows early or help contributeMake a tip:Bitcoin: 3FiC6w7eb3dkcaNHMAnj39ANTAkv8Ufi2SQR Codes: Bitcoin | Ethereum | Litecoin | Monero | ZCash | RipplecoinIf you do send a tip then please email me so that I can say thank youSubscribe on iTunes | Spotify | Stitcher | SoundCloud | YouTube | TuneIn | RSS FeedLeave a review on iTunesShare the show and episodes with your friends and familySubscribe to the newsletter on my websiteFollow me on Twitter Personal | Twitter Podcast | Instagram | Medium | YouTubeIf you are interested in sponsoring the show, you can read more about that here or please feel free to drop me an email to discuss options.

This is a recording of a panel discussion I participated in with a couple other reporters and crypto PR people at Consensus. (It was at the same time as Jack's talk, so it's totally understandable if you missed it. Also, the room was freezing. I was shivering the entire time.) The other panelists were Leigh Cuen of CoinDesk, Avi Salzman of Barron's (and my old classmate from grad school!), Jill Richmond of Spark PR, Trey Ditto of Ditto PR, and the discussion was moderated by Frank Chaparro of Business Insider. We discussed whether or not crypto projects and publications should engage in pay to play (I would have hoped the answer to this would obvious to everyone, but alas), coverage that could cause investors to lose money, whether or not the business model of the media industry drives clickbait headlines and why journalists have a responsibility to include more of the nuances in crypto. We also dish up some practical tips and insider info, like how crypto projects can get media coverage, what factors reporters use in deciding whether or not to write about a project they're pitched, and whether or not crypto teams should hire crypto-specific PR firms. Apologies that there was no mic for the questions from the audience. I've left the questions in, as you can sometimes hear them faintly. I tried my best to have someone or myself recap each question. For the question about our favorite stories, these were the articles we named My favorite of mine: my phone hijacking story: https://www.forbes.com/sites/laurashin/2016/12/20/hackers-have-stolen-millions-of-dollars-in-bitcoin-using-only-phone-numbers/#464b730d38ba Leigh liked a series I did exposing fake advisors: https://www.forbes.com/sites/laurashin/2017/11/01/alex-tapscotts-crypto-vc-firm-going-public-with-100m-cad-falsely-touted-4-blockchain-stars-as-advisors/#483d3ff31b1f https://www.forbes.com/sites/laurashin/2017/11/03/cibc-walks-from-tapscotts-nextblock-global-after-falsehoods-revealed-more-misrepresentations-found/#724de0e13cbf https://www.forbes.com/sites/laurashin/2017/11/05/alex-tapscotts-crypto-vc-firm-aborts-public-listing-will-return-money-after-falsehoods-revealed/#1d4de0a62e27 Leigh's favorite stories: Cryptocurrency in Iran: http://www.ibtimes.com/bitcoin-adoption-rate-iran-surges-despite-censorship-protests-2636607 http://www.ibtimes.com/initial-coin-offerings-are-coming-iran-2653474 Cryptocurrency for sex workers: http://www.ibtimes.com/beyond-bitcoin-blockchain-tokens-sex-industry-2601252 Avi's favorite story: https://www.barrons.com/articles/bitcoin-storms-wall-street-1512188427 Thank you to our sponsors!

Jonathan Levin, cofounder and chief operating officer for blockchain analytics company Chainalysis, describes how the company was born out of questions he had while a grad student, how they began mapping the Bitcoin blockchain to certain entities, and how their customers, which include government agencies such as the FBI, DEA, IRS, Europol and others, use Chainalysis to help solve Bitcoin crimes. He also reveals what level of detail the software tracks, how privacy coins could affect their work, and what new developments in the technology could decrease current crimes, such as physical extortion of crypto holders. Plus, he answers the question of whether or not Chainalysis's work destroys the fungibility of Bitcoin.

Jesse Powell, CEO of crypto asset exchange Kraken, explains why he publicly rejected then-Attorney General Eric Schneiderman's request for information from crypto exchanges, why he felt it was a publicity stunt and why Kraken, which stopped serving New York customers after New York's Bitlicense was introduced, doesn't see the market as a top priority. He also talks about why Kraken decided to stop operations in Japan after further regulations were imposed and discusses Kraken's $1 million donation to Coin Center (and its $1 million match). Plus, he gets into why he named the exchange after a Norse sea monster, the dangers of the exchange's margin trading product, and what steps he recommends everyone in crypto take to keep their tokens safe.

This recording of a panel I moderated at Ethereal with Ethereum researcher Vlad Zamfir and GovernX founder Nick Dodson covered the topic that it seems everyone in crypto is discussing these days: governance. We talk about how the community should decide whether or not to unlock the funds frozen by bugs, on-chain governance, what role the Ethereum Foundation plays and what it means that nearly all the people who write Ethereum's code are men.

The newly appointed head of the Ethereum Foundation, Aya Miyaguchi, talks about her background as a teacher, at Kraken, helping the Mt. Gox trustee unwind that mess, and the closed process by which she was plucked for her current role. She also describes her goals with the Ethereum Foundation, how the EF believes the Ethereum community should make decisions, how it defines community and more. She also talks about how she hopes to push more financial inclusion with Ethereum, and what she thinks needs to be done to get more women involved in crypto.

In this show, recorded without the participation of Ripple (explanation included in the show), Ryan Selkis, CEO and founder of Messari and Matt Leising, Bloomberg reporter, discuss Ripple's XRP, the third-largest coin by market cap. We go over whether or not it plays an essential role in Ripple's products, why banks are unlikely to adopt it, and why it's centralized. We also discuss whether or not it's an unregistered security (although the class-action lawsuit alleging XRP is an unregistered security being sold in a "never-ending ICO" came out after we recorded -- link below). We also discuss recent attempts by XRP to get it listed on top crypto exchanges, and how, as Selkis puts it, there's a fine line between some of its business activity and bribes. We also ponder the question: If XRP is meant for banks and financial institutions, why should everyday people own XRP?

Kyle Samani and Tushar Jain, cofounders of Multicoin Capital, dive deeply into their sometimes controversial and unpopular opinions on how the crypto revolution will play out. They describe why they don't think the technology that a team develops early on will play nearly as big a role as some think, why there will be a spectrum of blockchains offering different features with different tradeoffs, and why they're bearish on stablecoins. They discuss why they disagree on whether or not the Lightning Network is revolutionary (and therefore why they disagree on whether Bitcoin is failing). Samani and Jain also explain how they decide whether or not to invest in a token, their strategies for trading and why they don't have to be invested in a project to help out.

Paul Walsh had long ago predicted that internet scams would migrate from email to private messaging platforms, but it wasn't until crypto mania took off that his thesis was proved right -- in a big way. In the summer of 2017, the founder and CEO of MetaCert discovered many crypto Slack channels were being overrun by scammers capitalizing on FOMO to get people to inadvertently give them their ether and other tokens. Now, the company has several products to help prevent crypto enthusiasts from being scammed and it also decentralizing its work so the whole world can help classify bad links and proven others from being scammed. In this talk, he describes how the scams work, how Metacert tries to keep people from falling victim, and how best you can protect your own crypto.

If U.S. crypto regulation seems incredibly convoluted, this is the episode for you. Perianne Boring, the founder and president of the Chamber of Digital Commerce, and its global policy director and general counsel Amy Kim, discuss why U.S. regulation calls crypto assets currency, property, commodities and securities, and how that results in agencies enforcing their own laws without a higher level understanding of the technology. They also discuss what they call the "failure" of the regulatory regime that requires certain types of crypto companies to get licenses from 53 different states and territories and why no firms have so far even gotten close. They also advocate for the technology to be taxed more like currency than property, claiming that the current classification stifles usage of cryptocurrencies as currencies. We also dive into juicy questions like whether ether, which was sold in what we would now call an initial coin offering, is a security and what self-regulation of the crypto space could look like.

They also explain how low the bitcoin price can go before mining will be unprofitable for them, what their new blockchain analytics tools Crystal can do, and why they often choose people outside the blockchain/crypto industry to attend the Blockchain Summit they co-host on Richard Branson's Necker Island.

In an intermittent series on cryptoeconomics, Olaf Carlson-Wee and Ryan Zurrer of crypto hedge fund Polychain Capital describe what cryptoeconomics is, what goals it typically helps networks accomplish and what behaviors token systems might someday incentivize. We discuss when cryptoeconomic models don't make sense, how the type of consensus algorithms a blockchain chooses can affect behavior in that system and which consensus mechanisms excite them now. We also dive into whether or not it's desirable for a cryptoeconomic system to depend on a small number of knowledgeable participants, how to manage on-chain governance so networks don't vote themselves into a "black hole," and what disciplines are helpful in designing smart cryptoeconomic systems.

My guest today is a guy named "Jon." Jon wouldn’t tell me his last name or where he’s located.Jon isn't a mysterious figure I met on an underground Telegram pump-and-dump group or a darknet market operator.To the contrary, he's the COO of one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the world: ShapeShift.io.Over time, ShapeShift is becoming somewhat of a crypto conglomerate. They recently purchased Hardware wallet maker KeepKey. They also run the pricing website CoinCap and the do-it-yourself index fund creation tool, Prism (currently in private beta).In this episode, I wanted to speak with the person in charge of end-to-end operations at ShapeShift. This conversation yields an inside look at one of the cryosphere's most influential companies.Topics include:The thesis that ties together ShapeShift's products, brands, and websites.How ShapeShift is similar to decentralized exchanges, and how it’s different.ShapeShift’s product for creating your own crypto hedge fund, called Prism.The mechanics of how Prism works, and how Prism creates Ethereum-based smart contracts.What ShapeShift's organizational structure looks like.Why people who run exchanges tend to stay out of the public eye.ShapeShift’s relationship with other exchange operatorsHow running a non-custodial exchange differs from running a custodial exchange.Why cryptocurrency exchanges get a bad rap.Note: This Episode of Flippening is Made Possible by Nomics' free Cryptocurrency and Bitcoin API.The Nomics API offers squeaky clean and normalized primary source cryptocurrency trade data offered through fast and modern endpoints. Instead of having to integrate with a bunch of exchange APIs of varying quality, you can get everything through one screaming fast firehose. If you’ve found that you or your developer has to spend too much time cleaning up and maintaining cryptoasset datasets, instead of identifying investing/trading opportunities . . . or if you’re tired of interpolated data and want raw primary source trades delivered simply and consistently, with top-notch support and SLAs, then check us out at Nomics.com.

Just like other currencies, there are different digital currencies that entrepreneurs need to convert from one to another. Bitcoins can be converted into ethereum as well as litecoin into dash. ShapeShift is a digital asset exchange, a website that makes the conversion of bitcoins to other coins faster and easier. Erik Voorhees, ShapeShift founder, explains how the system works. Simply go to the website, there is no need to use an email account which is one of the coolest parts of it. Also, ShapeShift uses KeepKey. This is a hardware wallet that helps in preventing people from knowing your private key through a USB device. Learn why this is the safest way for a person to store cryptocurrency. Love the show?

On tonight's episode of "The Crypto Show," Our first guest is Erik Voorhees of ShapeShift, who discusses Washington State's attempt to license that company and endanger its clients personal data. As a result, ShapeShift decides to pull out of hostile territory, operation Dunkirk style. We also discuss ShapeShift's purchase of KeepKey, one of the major crypto-hardware devices on the market, in an all-Bitcoin transaction, and what that means for the hardware device and its users. In the second hour, we have Colin Cantrell of Nexus, a cryptocurrency and community with a truly broad scope to its vision Colin also addresses a little-recognized threat to Bitcoin and all of digital security: the advent of quantum computing. It is a must-listen segment. In the final segment we hear from co-host Danny about his relief efforts along the coast after Hurricane Harvey. He also describes Harlan Dietrich's and Martin Pennington's trip with a boat to the coast for the same reason. We mention how these efforts would not be possible without the Dash charity fund that The Crypto Show receives, a large donation from Bitcoin.com's Roger Ver, several thousand from random listeners, and most most magnanimous of all, 10 Bitcoins donated by Bill Kline. Colin Cantrell has also pledged to donate to the cause. Thanks to all of them and anyone else who have sacrificed their crypto toward the cause of hurricane relief!
