TD₿: Just Say NO to Crypto! - (a Swan original video series) with Dante Cook
TL:DR: "Bitcoin is crypto... but crypto, isn't Bitcoin."
Hey Bitcoiners,
Why are Bitcoiners always bashing crypto? Isn't Bitcoin a cryptocurrency?
Well, yes, it is, but like billionaire Bill Miller eloquently stated: "Bitcoin is crypto, but crypto isn't Bitcoin."
Why is the SEC suing the largest crypto exchange in the U.S., Coinbase?
Join Dante for a deep dive into why you should say no to crypto, what sets Bitcoin apart and makes it unique, and why those who have done their homework, like Michael Saylor, say there is no second best.
Enjoy!

Shape security and risk work alongside developers, security, and other teams. Work ahead of developer cycles to answer questions related to implementation, producing diagrams, flows, and ensuring that work is well specified and coordinated across teams.
Lead the team’s Shape Up process and prioritization across multiple services, business priorities, and new opportunities
Participate in threat modeling sessions with the broader security team on new and existing products, helping bring the client perspective to the table.
Work closely with the dev/sec/ops team to ensure that work produced by developers feeds downstream threat detection systems.
Proactively research new technologies and tools, and make technology recommendations in service of improved client and site security.
Skills and experience that will help you succeed
