🎙️ After the Coldcard hack, around 20 developers formed the Bitcoin Red Team and used AI to scan almost the entire Bitcoin ecosystem, spending up to $10,000 a day to find the bugs before the hackers did. Calle explains what they found, why US AI models refuse to fix their own bugs, and why Bitcoin Core was the hardest to break.
Plus: Cashu ecash explained, BitChat messaging without internet, why democracy breaks without privacy, OFAC sanctioning code, and why everyone should start vibe coding now.
