Crypto related physical attacks (2021) - Guard your Financial Privacy: A non-negotiable human right - YouTube

It is vitally important that people understand聽 how their privacy is being eroded and what they聽聽
[7]
can do about it, because it does present some聽 significant risks to their personal safety.
[14]
I won't bore you by listing my聽 personal accreditations again,
[18]
but please know that i'm more than聽 qualified to speak on this matter.
[24]
However i will say that i am the CEO of an聽 exciting startup called Miri and you will hear聽聽
[32]
more about that in the future, i'm sure. Please聽 note that Miri is a non-profit organisation.
[42]
Anyway, let's get straight into it, please聽 have a public address for a bitcoin wallet聽聽
[48]
available. Preferably one that聽 you do not plan on using again.
[55]
Please navigate to https://cointracker.io/wallet/bitcoin
[65]
Type in the public address for the聽 wallet balance that you want to see,
[70]
and press enter. ... Can you see how聽 dangerous this could potentially be?
[78]
There have been times when i personally have聽 made bitcoin transactions where my address has聽聽
[84]
seemingly been required. Thankfully i gave them an聽 address in Bermuda, which obviously聽聽
[92]
isn't real but imagine if somebody gave their real聽 physical address and their balance was 500,000.聽聽
[99]
Obviously i'm talking about dollars here not聽 bitcoin, (that much BTC is kind of unrealistic.)
[108]
The other thing that can happen is if the person聽 you are trading with collects information such聽聽
[114]
as your real name, and perhaps your telephone聽 number, this information can then be used to聽聽
[120]
link to your facebook profile. Now what they聽 can do at that point is use a fake profile聽聽
[127]
to attempt to add you as a friend on facebook. Then they can take things a little bit further,
[134]
they can check your active status on messenger聽 and potentially gauge the times when you are awake聽聽
[140]
and asleep so they know when to launch a聽 physical attack. This is extremely serious聽聽
[146]
as i'm sure you can realise at this聽 point, so please do protect yourself!
[152]
personally i would urge you to switch to a privacy聽 currency immediately, such as the popular Monero聽聽
[158]
however, of course there's the possibility that i聽 may be biased and therefore you should be aware of聽聽
[164]
that. Perhaps the easiest thing you can do is use聽 a privacy wallet. The privacy researcher Robert聽聽
[174]
Braxman recommends the use of incognito wallet聽 which is a privacy focused bitcoin wallet that聽聽
[182]
also functions with other cryptocurrencies as well. However, I do have some reservations about this.
[189]
Please be aware that the best and most聽 secure form of storing your cryptocurrency is聽聽
[197]
definitely an offline wallet, however there are聽 some security concerns around these as well!
[206]
Please only purchase hardware cryptocurrency聽 wallets directly from the manufacturer.
[211]
This is to protect yourself against receiving a聽 device that has been tampered with already, also聽聽
[219]
please do not give the manufacturer your physical聽 address! Forwarding addresses can be purchased for聽聽
[228]
a couple of hundred pounds a year and they may聽 protect you against having your physical address聽聽
[235]
broadcast and shared across the internet which聽 is what happened last year, believe it or not,
[242]
to the customers of a popular聽 hardware wallet manufacturer.
[248]
That's all for this video, please be aware聽 that the governments across the world are聽聽
[253]
now rolling out something called a central聽 bank digital currency (CBDC) which also present some聽聽
[261]
huge privacy concerns and i plan聽 to cover these in the future.
[283]
i keep fighting voices in my mind that say i'm not
[288]
enough every single life it聽 tells me i will never measure
[309]
am i more than just the sum聽 of every high and every low
[321]
remind me once again just who聽 i am because i need to know
[330]
whoa you say i am loved when i can't feel a聽 thing you say i am strong when i think i am weak聽聽
[346]
you say i am held when i am falling short聽 and when i don't belong oh you say i am yours聽聽
[359]
and i believe oh i believe what you say of me
[373]
the only thing that matters now聽 is everything you think of me
[386]
in you i find my worth in you i find my identity
[404]
you say i am strong when i think i am weak聽 and you say i am hell when i am falling short聽聽
[417]
and when i don't belong oh you say i am yours聽 and i believe oh i believe what you say of me
[442]
taking all i have and now聽 i'm laying it at your feet
[454]
you have every failure god and you'll have聽 everything to read every victory cause you聽聽
[466]
say i am loved when i can't feel the聽 thing and you say i am strong when i think
[490]
i am your and i believe
[499]
oh i believe what you say on or i believe聽 oh i believe what you say of me Jesus
