So, freaks, is your boy Marty here to intro, this long rip of Rabbit Hole Recap, Matt,

0:07.5

and I just went about an hour and 50 minutes, very dense episode, very fun episode, and you guys

0:12.7

are going to love it.

0:13.8

It's brought to you by your good friends at Unchained Capital, Unchained Yourself, Unchained Capital.

0:19.3

That's not one of their slogans, Unchained Yourself. I just ran with that for some reason. But what does Unchained Capital do? They're helping Bitcoiners out by providing them with financial services with the security first mindset. They want to stay true to the Bitcoin ethos by allowing you to have control over your UTXOs at every step of the process that you engage with them.

0:41.2

Would that be through their Volt program, which is a two or three multi-sig quorum that you engage in with Unchain in which you hold two of three keys using a treasurer or ledger and soon to be a cold card as well so that you can move your UTXOs out of that

0:54.7

vault, out of that multi-sig wallet whenever you want to buy yourself without Unchained

1:00.0

being involved. But if you're ever in a pinch, you only have one key on you, and you need

1:03.8

that second key to be signed in that 2A3 quorum. Unchained is there with a key as well to help

1:08.7

you move those UTXOs. On top of that, they have their Volt program where you use Bitcoin as collateral

1:14.6

to get same-day liquidity in US dollars.

1:16.6

If you don't want to sell your Bitcoin and don't want the tax burdens of selling your

1:20.6

Bitcoin for capital gains, you can get a collateralized loan in which you put Bitcoin

1:25.6

up as collateral, you get US dollars, and then that is also a multi-sig setup where you hold one key, an escrow service holds another,

1:32.8

and Unchained holds a third.

1:34.2

And you can always use your key to prove that your UTXOs are where Unchained is telling you they are.

1:40.8

And then beyond that, they're rolling out an OTC desk. Right now it's available in Texas,

1:46.5

California, and Illinois for people who want to purchase big blocks of Bitcoin, pun intended.

1:54.3

And on top of that, they have the incredible open source initiatives that they've been working on,

1:58.8

which include Caravan, which is an open source release of their multi-sig quorum.

2:05.6

If you don't want unchained involved at all, they've open-source the software that allows you to create these multi-sig wallets.

2:11.6

They're also working on BIP 39, Bip 39, excuse me, Slip 39, not Bip 39.
