Drawing on his book Defending Bitcoin, Luke makes the case that Bitcoin is becoming critical infrastructure, and walks through security at every layer: from individual self-custody, privacy, and multisig to the systemic risks that matter most. The conversation covers mining pool centralization, governance concentration around Bitcoin Core, financial attacks like debanking and CBDCs, and the surprising truth about how Bitcoin could actually die — not from quantum or a single attack, but from complacency. Essential viewing for anyone serious about understanding Bitcoin’s true security and how to protect it.
