![]() I wanted to build stuff on Bitcoin, but there were no tools for. net developer and I had nothing to work with. ![]() But it would be good though just for my listeners, for you just to give a background of how the Wasabi wallet came to be and why privacy was something you wanted to focus on.Īdam Ficsor: This whole thing started out when I get into Bitcoin and I was a. So I listened to your interview with Stephan Livera, which was great and you've covered a number of things in there, I don't really feel we need to cover again, because people can listen to that excellent interview. But in trying to use it, I came across some difficulties, but I think it's mainly because I'm not the most competent as everybody knows full well and keeps reminding me, I'm not the most technically competent. Peter McCormack: It didn't freeze for me. Peter McCormack: Well yeah, but we'll come to it because I did have some problems, which I want to talk through.Īdam Ficsor: At the first start, with the new release on Mac OS, it freezes and after that it works. Peter McCormack: I downloaded it this morning.Īdam Ficsor: Ah, okay. But how are you, how is everything at Wasabi?Īdam Ficsor: Yeah, it's great! Just a quick questions, when did you download it? Because I just released the new version with many, many updates yesterday. Peter McCormack: Thank you for your patience in getting this interview together, as I wanted to download the Wasabi wallet before we spoke because I wanted to have a play with it and see how I got on and see what my experience was so we can include that within the interview. Peter McCormack: Hi there Adam, how are you? We discuss user experience, fungibility, anonymity v unobservability and CoinJoin. In this interview, I talk to Adam Ficsor, the co-founder and CTO of Wasabi Wallet. While these tools are great and offer financial privacy for all, they are complex to use and currently out of the reach of the less technical. With Tor and CoinJoin, users have both a network level anonymity and the ability to mix their coins. Wasabi Wallet is leading the fight for financial privacy and includes several tools to improve this with Bitcoin. This itself is a good thing it makes holders responsible for their security and can teach painful lessons if you make a mistake. Sometimes I question whether this is something we accept and is the cost of self-sovereignty or whether it is something we should push for higher standards.īitcoin is hard though it can take time to understand and a lot of work to protect your holdings. User experience is something I have regularly found as a problem in Bitcoin, perhaps due to a lack of experienced UX designers in the industry. Interview date: Wednesday 24th April, 2019
