b'The Problem:\\n\\nThe CIA is hacking the world with Vault7.\\n\\nPaul Puey and Airbitz Solution\\n\\nI recently met Paul Puey at the Anarchapulco conference in Acapulco, Mexico and I left quite impressed with how Paul communicates the value of Airbitz and how they were founded on both security and customer service. This was one of my favorite episodes and is packed with value stemming from Paul\\u2019s experience in software engineering and small business. He saw Bitcoin as a solution for the cash-based industries like food/service but quickly found that there was an ease-of-use aspect in cryptocurrency wallets. \\n\\nSecurity\\n\\nThanks to Wikileaks, we\\u2019ve recently learned about the CIA\\u2019s \\u201cVault7\\u201d suite of apps that is designed to hack nearly anything with a microphone and camera. It seems that nothing is safe. We discuss how severe and dangerous the revelation actually is and how Airbitz is trying to protect your digital money and information. \\n\\nWhy Airbitz uses Decentralized Bitcoin Nodes\\n\\nPaul mentions that some wallets host their own bitcoin nodes (aka their communication channel to the Bitcoin network) whereas Airbitz has a very robust, decentralized network of nodes which protects against node outage not allowing you to place a btc transaction. Check out the end of the conversation where we discuss how Airbitz offers a smart-fee system to help your transactions get confirmed quickly. \\n\\nHope you enjoy this episode and let us know who you\\u2019d like to hear from next!
