Escape the Technocracy

Gabriel Custodiet and UrbanHacker dissect the worst crypto security season on record: the ~$100 million Coldcard seed flaw, Ledger supply-chain implants via CryptoBilis, Trezor and Foundation data breaches, the $320 million Liquid sidechain exploit, BTCPay Server's vulnerability flood, and the $6.34 billion Binance heist attributed to North Korea's TraderTraitor. They trace the common thread—AI-powered bug hunting now hitting every codebase—and follow it from the PHP2Shell panic that forced their own site offline to hacked supermarket freezers across Europe. The verdict: hardware wallets are now a liability, aggressive patching is mandatory, and Bitcoin itself may be the only software still standing. Your stack probably isn't.

Gabriel Custodiet speaks with the legendary societal collapse tactician: James Wesley, Rawles. Gabriel picks his brain about the threats he sees in the world today. They also get into depth about private gun ownership and purchases, concealed carry, self-defense, about the benefits of American federalism, and about the best places on earth to survive in the event of disaster. Rawles is a fantastic thinker about all things sovereignty – this is one episode you don't want to miss.
