BitGo CEO issues 100 Bitcoin hacker dare

Natalie Brunell, board member at Semler Scientific and Bitcoin strategy lead, reports that BitGo's CEO placed 100 Bitcoin in a wallet and invited hackers to attempt to access it. According to Brunell, so far, no one has managed to break in. She interviewed Mike Belshe, BitGo CEO, about his reasons for the challenge and what it would require to compromise the wallet.

Brunell has previously questioned the security of Bitcoin custody setups, asking if self-custody without a seed phrase is trustworthy in her article on Bitcoin custody models. She also discussed what type of Bitcoin educational content would help beginners. These topics remain central as industry figures like BitGo’s CEO put practical security measures to the test.
