You really shouldn't reuse addresses. That's really, really bad. And 10 years ago, that was very common.

Now, it is not common because wallets will automatically generate a new address every time you pop into the wallet and say, I want to receive something.

Don't ship hardware wallets to your house. Never, ever, ever, ever do that. Like, that's, and that's hard because, like, not everyone

has a PO box. Not everyone has a office that they have access to. If and when these companies

have data breaches, you are going to be at the top of the list and you do not want your home

address on there. If you really want to take the next step toward protecting your Bitcoin privacy, the natural step is to run your own node.

You know, you want to get to a point where that node is actually what is powering your wallet.

It's what your wallet is connected to.

You use your node to broadcast your transactions.

You use your node to listen to the Bitcoin network. You use

your node to query the blockchain and ask, like, has there been any activity for these addresses

that I care about?

Welcome back to Bitcoin Season 2. Privacy is the topic today. I've got Satsi, who is board of directors for the Payjoin Foundation, a Bitcoin Privacy nonprofit.

Welcome to Bitcoin Season 2, Sati. Thanks for coming on.

Thanks for having me. I'm excited.

You made the move to the Payjoin Foundation recently. Can you tell me a bit about

yourself and what the foundation does what you guys are working on right now? Yeah, for sure.

So my background is in both Bitcoin development and education prior to Bitcoin. I was a software

engineer in just the general space, primarily working in ad tech.

Aside from PayJoin, I also work on the Bitcoin Dev project.

You can find that at Bitcoin Devs.xyZ.

We do a lot of educational initiatives and create a lot of tooling for developers to kind of take that leap into Boss Bitcoin open source software.
