The Canadian Bitcoiners Podcast - Bitcoin News With a Canadian Spin

Show Notes

About 4,000 BTC, worth roughly US$320 million at the time, was withdrawn from Liquid's federation wallet. Liquid says its signing keys were not compromised. How did the safeguards allow the withdrawal, and what does that mean for people holding L-BTC?This week's Canadian Bitcoiners discussion connects Liquid's reserve risk with Trezor's shipping-provider breach, where another roughly 67,000 customers were exposed despite assurances that older data had been deleted. The wider agenda covers Bitcoin treasury-company risks and Canada's jobs, procurement and institutional-accountability stories. The common question: what are you still trusting after you take control of your keys?Which deserves more scrutiny: the wallet, the bridge, or the companies keeping your personal data?Canadian Bitcoiners PodcastWebsite: https://canadianbitcoiners.comSubscribe and turn on notifications — new episodes live Monday nights.READ MORELiquid's incident statement: https://x.com/Liquid_BTC/status/2096696272447218108Trezor's updated disclosure: https://trezor.io/blog/news/recent-customer-data-exposed-in-shipping-provider-incidentReported recovery negotiations: https://www.theblock.co/news/defi/2026-09-07-liquid-network-attacker-says-they-will-return-most-of-4000-btc-after-bug-fix-413673————————————————————————————————SPONSORS🔒 easyDNS — Canadian-owned domains, DNS, email and hosting from an ICANN-accredited company that has accepted Bitcoin since 2013.

MSCI adopted its non-operating company rule on October 15, and the companion spreadsheet of potentially impacted securities lists Strategy with a potential action of "Deleted" — roughly $40.3B of the $44.4B of float-adjusted market cap on that entire list. The affected names publish November 11 and the change takes effect at the close on November 30, leaving 19 days between the list and any forced selling. MSTR dropped 9.56% in a single session after the decision. Tonight, Joey and Len walk through the 4-of-5 ratio test, whether Strategy actually trips it, and what index removal does and does not do to the Bitcoin sitting behind the stock. MSCI's announcement names no company, and Strategy says MSCI-linked funds hold only 3.1% of its basic shares.

Ledger has confirmed an unauthorized hardware implant in an affected device sold through CryptoBilis, a reseller listed by Ledger. How can a hardware wallet pass a Genuine Check while a physical implant spies on its setup? Tonight, Joey and Len examine the reported supply-chain attack, the limits of device verification, and what this does to trust in self-custody. Loss totals remain third-party estimates; the confirmed implant does not establish that every Ledger device is compromised.
