The Crypto Vigilante Podcast

When I talk about what matters most in crypto, it’s easy to get lost in price charts, hype cycles, and the latest shiny coin that promises to change the world. But if you strip all that away, when you peel back the layers of noise and speculation, you’re left with the foundation—privacy and security. That’s why for years, without any affiliate deal or paid promotion, I’ve told people: download Edge Wallet. It’s what I recommend from the jump. Not because it’s trendy, but because it embodies the core values of crypto. Edge has consistently pushed the envelope on what real self-custody, privacy, and usability should look like. I sat down with Paul Puey, CEO of Edge, and the conversation was one of the most engaging I’ve had in a while. Paul is one of those builders who doesn’t just chase whatever gets the most headlines—he’s focused on the deeper infrastructure and philosophy that makes crypto worth defending in the first place. We discussed features like duress mode, which allows you to unlock a “decoy” account under pressure, keeping your real funds safe. In a world where physical threats are a reality for people holding crypto, this is more than a gimmick—it’s an essential tool. Paul also walked me through how Edge goes beyond just being a wallet. They’ve built integrated exchange functionality that connects you to multiple decentralized exchanges and privacy-respecting swap partners. You can literally disable every KYC exchange in the settings if you want to keep your trades fully peer-to-peer. For me, that’s a breath of fresh air in a space increasingly dominated by centralized intermediaries disguised as “wallets.”We also dove into the deeper game being played right now: how big banks and payment processors are trying to co-opt Bitcoin and crypto into their existing rails. MasterCard's push for carbon credit tracking through their system isn’t “innovation”—it’s authoritarian surveillance. The danger is that they’ll market these controls as “Bitcoin upgrades” when in reality they’re a step back into financial captivity.

They can’t match the finality, efficiency, and censorship resistance of true blockchain-native transactions. That’s why it’s critical we keep building—and using—the tools that preserve these qualities. Paul’s vision goes beyond hodling. He seeks an open-source, censorship-resistant point-of-sale system that can rival Square and Clover, supporting both crypto and fiat. That’s the kind of thinking that brings us closer to an actual circular economy instead of just an investment fad. We even geeked out on the future of privacy-preserving stablecoins and Bitcoin’s programmability—topics that most “mainstream” crypto outlets won’t touch because they threaten entrenched interests. These are the conversations that matter. And that’s exactly why we’re bringing Paul to the TCV Summit [http://tcvsummit.com] on Friday, September 12th. The theme this year is What Matters Most in Crypto, and we’re assembling some of the sharpest minds and fiercest defenders of the original cypherpunk vision. This is your chance to get the unfiltered truth and the practical guidance you need to survive and thrive—not just during the dollar’s decline, but after the collapse of the old system entirely. If you care about privacy, self-custody, and building a future that doesn’t rely on the permission of corrupt gatekeepers, you need to be there.

They said they took over Monero [https://cryptovigilante.io/2025/03/04/monero-pirate-chain-the-ultimate-shields-for-financial-privacy-video/]. They bragged about controlling the network.

The future isn’t coming… it’s here, pulsing in every block that lands on-chain. Banksters and Big Tech may have latched onto Bitcoin and Ethereum hoping to tame them, but guess what? They’ve only proved these networks are unstoppable [https://cryptovigilante.io/2025/04/10/were-already-at-the-top-embrace-the-bitcoin-reality-video/]. Their seat at the table doesn’t weaken us; it confirms the revolution is real. But the real magic is still where Satoshi left it: pure, permission-free, peer-to-peer value flow. That’s Pirate Chain shielding your freedom, Monero hardening your privacy [https://cryptovigilante.io/2025/03/04/monero-pirate-chain-the-ultimate-shields-for-financial-privacy-video/], Tari and Nock Chain innovating in the shadows, and every builder who keeps middlemen up at night.

For years, Bitcoin was tamed — declawed, defanged, and made palatable to Wall Street and regulators. But behind the scenes, the code never forgot. Now, the great awakening [https://cryptovigilante.io/2025/04/25/tcv-solution-to-confusion-in-the-crypto-market-video/] is underway. The core devs are quietly reactivating the opcodes. BitVM, OP_CAT, and the Great Script Restoration aren’t just technical upgrades — they’re signals. Bitcoin is preparing to scale. On-chain. With power.

And if you’re paying attention, you’ll see: the window for real freedom tech is cracking open again. This is your chance. → Study scalable Bitcoin. → Learn from the builders who never gave up. → Embrace the tools that serve the unbanked, not just the institutional elite. We didn’t come all this way to build a digital dollar. We came to set people free — with microtransactions, privacy, and peer-to-peer power. The war for Bitcoin’s soul isn’t over. The next chapter starts now.
