Welcome to episode 76 of The Bitcoin Game, sponsored by eToro. Andrew Tierney, otherwise known online as Cybergibbons, hacks everything from oil rigs to Cryptocurrency hardware wallets. We conducted this interview a bit before COVID-19 took over the planet, back when we were more worried about malware than going to the grocery store without an N95 mask. Andrew and I discuss hacking hardware wallets, IoT devices, home routers, his day job as a hacker for hire, and other stuff too.

The Bitcoin Game #75: 2014 Interview with Dr. Jochen "Johoe" Hoenicke
The Bitcoin Game
Welcome to The Bitcoin Game, sponsored by eToro. I'm Rob Mitchell. One of my favorite old interviews is an exclusive with Dr. Jochen "Johoe" Hoenicke, the 2014 Bitcoin Hero. He rescued insecure Bitcoin from Blockchain.info wallets. A bit after this 2014 interview, Johoe responsibly published a side-channel attack on a TREZOR, which led to Satoshi Labs hiring him. Enjoy my first "rebroadcast" to celebrate 75, the only audio interview with Johoe that I'm aware of. Full show notes & links at TheBitcoinGame.com

Twitter's Jack Dorsey recently got tons of attention promoting the goal of decentralized social media, and P2P identity may well be the base layer for such projects.
