"Ultimately we determined that the only true solution–TRUE solution–to a wrench attack is insurance."
In this episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, host Walker America sits down with Becca Rubenfeld, co-founder of AnchorWatch, for a conversation on the future of Bitcoin insurance, self-custody security, and wrench attack protection.
They dive deep into how AnchorWatch is revolutionizing Bitcoin custody through its insured multi-sig Trident Vault, using MiniScript to blend cryptographic guarantees with traditional Lloyd’s of London insurance. Becca shares AnchorWatch’s journey from startup to becoming the only retail-accessible Lloyd’s crypto coverholder and explains how their solution solves critical pain points for Bitcoiners—including inheritance, estate planning, and fraud prevention.
You’ll learn:
• Why AnchorWatch created a Bitcoin-native insurance layer
• How their recovery layer ensures foolproof inheritance for families
• Why ransomware and wrench attacks are rising—and how AnchorWatch defends against them
• The difference between K&R insurance and standard Bitcoin loss coverage
• AnchorWatch’s future plans for Bitcoin-denominated policies and Bitcoin-backed yield
• How their infrastructure could power future Bitcoin mortgage collateralization
• The surprising problem with most Bitcoiners’ “treasure map” inheritance plans
