If you\u2019re like me (and you\u2019ve been stacking Bitcoin relentlessly), you\u2019ve probably looked for ways to improve your privacy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll admit, it\u2019s a bit of a battle for me. As someone who had a public presence from writing their first article in Bitcoin\u00a0back in 2013<\/a>, I don\u2019t have much of a choice \u2013 a lot of my personal information is out there, probably forever.<\/p>\n

That said, little improvements go a long way (or so they say). At least, they make me feel better about the fact that I\u2019m guarding basically all my wealth with no one to hold accountable but myself these days\u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n

Anyway, one practical upgrade that I\u2019ve made is to store my Bitcoin hardware devices and seed material in\u00a0faraday bags<\/a>, which repulse radiation and block frequencies.\u00a0I\u2019m not an expert, but I\u2019ve been told this makes the devices harder to tamper with, and as far as additional steps, all you have to do is buy a specific storage bag.<\/p>\n

I got my first faraday bags for free with my Casa service<\/a> (a multi-sig<\/a> Bitcoin security provider that assists me with my self-custody). (They give out free faraday bags from this cool producer called SLNT<\/a> for people who sign up, but I\u2019ve bought a few more since then along the way.)<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what turned me on to this privacy masterpiece.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been in need of a new backpack, and I have to admit, despite the $1,000 price tag, the\u00a0SLNT Submersible Faraday Backpack<\/a> has my attention.<\/p>\n

SLNT Faraday Backpack (0:05) <\/p>\n

Not only does it look pretty sleek, but apparently it can keep your laptop (and any other devices) safe in up to 100 feet of water.<\/p>\n

As someone with a constant phobia of plane crashes, it\u2019s tempting. Is this more than I need to protect my hardware devices in transit? Do I need to care about solar flares and EMF radiation? <\/p>\n

Maybe not, but given we may be on the cusp of World War III, that\u2019s another reason to skip a stack and buy this right? I mean, it\u2019s the kind of thing I should own as a \u201cbitcoin expert?\u201d<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve asked Shinobi if he can make one out of Saran wrap, but alas, this is apparently beyond even his security acumen. Until then, I guess I\u2019m stuck with this on my wishlist. <\/p>\n

Because there has to be a reason for me not to buy this right?\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
