How hard is it to properly set up a factory-reset or airgapped laptops? Can malware be transmitted via USB? What is the Glacier Protocol? These questions are from the MOOC 9.4 session, as well as a monthly Patreon Q&A session, which took place on March 9th and March 31st 2018 respectively.

In this talk, Andreas reflects on the audacity of "be your own bank," but also the difficulties we will face in translating what that means to people who still have no idea what a bank (let alone the centralised power of the banking cartel) does. We all suffer from the Dunning-Kruger effect, but in security it can be fatal. We need to be better at accurately calculating, conceptualising, prioritising and defending against risks faced by a diverse, global user base. We need to design interfaces that are intuitively secure. Or we will lose the safeguards of decentralisation to "crypto banks" -- same business as usual, but new names on the letterhead.

You want to be paid in a cryptocurrency; but your clients might not be ready to do that yet. How can you entice clients to pay for your products/services with bitcoin, ether, monero or any other cryptocurrency?

Using new technology can be difficult and confusing, and "on-ramping" clients into these ecosystems can be a challenge. In order to get people to want to pay in a cryptocurrency, you need to give them an incentive. Giving them a financial incentive to pay in BTC, ETH, XMR, or any other cryptocurrency can be a great way to encourage someone who is reluctant to learn about these systems to jump in.
