Ep69: Changing the game for Bitcoin custodians w/ Rob Hamilton
Description
Most large custodians secure Bitcoin using multisig or MPC, but that tech hasn't really changed or upgraded for almost a decade. Anchorwatch founder Rob Hamilton explains how Miniscript levels up the custodian game and allows for better risk mitigation for the largest holders of Bitcoin. He also dives into Bitcoin script, soft forks, and getting Ethereum holders to burn their assets onto Bitcoin.
