  • The Code Lives On | THE UNBOUNDED SERIES: Dojo Coder
    Apr 8 2026

    In this special series, Max shares why we’re hosting and preserving the Unbounded archive at Ungovernable Misfits. In the fourth re-release of the series, Dojo Coder (Pavel)— a long-time cypherpunk builder whose code has powered Samourai Wallet, Dojo and Ronin Dojo joins tbd.

    Tbd and Pavel dig into the current state of Ronin Dojo, why the project remains alive despite setbacks, and a near-term UI update that will reintroduce a transaction privacy visualiser inspired by the now-defunct KYCP.org. Pavel also reflects on Ashigaru—a community fork of Samourai Wallet—and the relaunch of Whirlpool as an open act of defiance, the trade-offs and trust questions it raises, and practical guidance on evaluating transparency and risk. We close with Soroban’s peer-to-peer relay for Dojo to further obfuscate transaction origins, why code is speech even when courts disagree, and how listeners can support the Samourai legal defence while staying informed through reliable voices in the privacy community.


    Stay resilient, and enjoy the series as we continue with Colonial in the weeks ahead.

  • A Prescription for Privacy | The Confab 30: Vik Sharɱa
    Apr 6 2026
    In this Confab, Max sits down with Vik Sharɱa, founder and CEO of Cake Wallet, for a candid journey from his early hacking days on the Apple II, through decades in the steel industry, to discovering Bitcoin in 2013 and Monero in 2016. Vik shares the eye‑opening moment Coinbase shut his account for a small darknet market purchase of antibiotics—an incident that catalysed his deep dive into privacy and ultimately inspired Cake Wallet’s creation. Max and Vik explore why privacy should be a default, how Monero’s out‑of‑the‑box protections compare with Bitcoin’s more complex privacy tooling, and why a multi‑coin world empowers users rather than divides them. Max and Vik also dig into the rapid rise of AI: how it’s reshaping software development, enabling non‑coders to build real tools, and what it might mean for self‑custody and user experience in the months ahead.Vik reflects on the growing global demand for financial privacy and access—especially via stablecoins as on‑ramps—while emphasising real‑world utility as the backbone of value. He recounts Cake’s experimental culture (silent payments, PayJoin v2, Lightning via Spark) and the team’s willingness to learn in public. Max and Vik wrap on why decentralised money and local/secure AI can help people everywhere earn, spend, and build without permission, and why he’s more optimistic today than he was a few years ago about privacy tech gaining mainstream traction.HELP GET SAMOURAI A PARDONSIGN THE PETITION ----> https://www.change.org/p/stand-up-for-freedom-pardon-the-innocent-coders-jailed-for-building-privacy-tools DONATE TO THE FAMILIES ----> https://www.givesendgo.com/billandkeonneSUPPORT ON SOCIAL MEDIA ---> https://billandkeonne.org/VALUE FOR VALUEThanks for listening you Ungovernable Misfits, we appreciate your continued support and hope you enjoy the shows.You can support this episode using your time, talent or treasure.TIME:- create fountain clips for the show- create a meetup- help boost the signal on social mediaTALENT:- create ungovernable misfit inspired art, animation or music- design or implement some software that can make the podcast better- use whatever talents you have to make a contribution to the show!TREASURE:- BOOST IT OR STREAM SATS on the Podcasting 2.0 apps @ https://podcastapps.com- DONATE via Monero @ https://xmrchat.com/ugmf- BUY SOME STICKERS @ https://www.ungovernablemisfits.com/shop/FOUNDATIONhttps://foundation.xyz/ungovernableFoundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today’s tech conglomerates.
