In this episode, we dive into an exciting announcement with Zach and Q from Foundation. After two years of hard work, they unveil the team's latest creation, the Passport Prime, a revolutionary personal security platform. Unlike traditional hardware wallets, Passport Prime combines the features of a hardware wallet with those of a YubiKey, offering multi-factor authentication, encrypted storage, and an extendable app platform for third-party developers. This open app platform aims to empower developers to build security applications, contrasting with Ledger's closed ecosystem.<br /><br />Zach and Q discuss the meticulous design process behind Passport Prime, highlighting its unique industrial design, including a curved screen and CNC'd aluminum chassis. They emphasize the device's durability, featuring Gorilla Glass and a high-quality IPS touchscreen display.<br /><br />The conversation shifts to the device's capabilities, which extend beyond a typical hardware wallet. Passport Prime supports various applications, including a 2FA codes app, a security key application, a file browser with a unique AirLock feature, and a seed vault app. These features make it a Swiss army knife for personal security, allowing users to securely store and manage their digital assets.<br /><br />KeyOS, the operating system powering Passport Prime, is introduced as a microkernel-based OS written in Rust, offering modularity, resilience, and enhanced security. The open-source nature of KeyOS allows third-party developers to create apps for the platform, with Cake Wallet being the first to integrate.<br /><br />The episode also covers the innovative Quantum Link Bluetooth, which ensures secure communication between Passport Prime and smartphones. This feature, along with the device's modular design, addresses potential security concerns while enhancing user experience.<br /><br />Finally, the hosts discuss the backup solutions for Passport Prime, utilizing NFC key cards and optional cloud backups to provide a seamless recovery process. The episode concludes with details on the device's availability and pricing, highlighting the team's dedication to creating a high-quality, user-friendly product.<br /><br />IMPORTANT LINKS<br /><ul><li><a href="https://foundation.xyz/ungovernable" target="_blank">https://foundation.xyz/ungovernable</a></li><li><a href="https://foundation.xyz/beyond" target="_blank">https://foundation.xyz/beyond</a></li><li>[email protected]</li><li><a href="https://github.com/betrusted-io" target="_blank">https://github.com/betrusted-io</a></li></ul><br /><p><strong>VALUE FOR VALUE</strong><br /><br />Thanks for listening you Ungovernable Misfits, we appreciate your continued support and hope you enjoy the shows.<br /><br />You can support this episode using your time, talent or treasure.<br /><br /><strong>TIME</strong>:<br /><br />- create fountain clips for the show<br />- create a meetup<br />- help boost the signal on social media<br /><br /><strong>TALENT</strong>:<br /><br />- create ungovernable misfit inspired art, animation or music<br />- design or implement some software that can make the podcast better<br />- use whatever talents you have to make a contribution to the show!<br /><br /><strong>TREASURE</strong>:<br /><br />- BOOST IT OR STREAM SATS on the Podcasting 2.0 apps @ <a href="https://podcastapps.com" target="_blank">https://podcastapps.com</a><br />- DONATE via Paynym @ <a href="https://paynym.rs/+misfit" target="_blank">https://paynym.rs/+misfit</a><br />- DONATE via Monero @ <a href="https://xmrchat.com/ugmf" target="_blank">https://xmrchat.com/ugmf</a><br />- BUY SOME CLOTHING @ <a href="https://ungovernablemisfits.com/store/" target="_blank">https://ungovernablemisfits.com/store/</a><br />- BUY SOME ART!! @ <a href="https://ungovernablemisfits.com/art-gallery/" target="_blank">https://ungovernablemisfits.com/art-gallery/</a></p><br /><p><strong>FOUNDATION<br /><br /></strong><a href="https://foundation.xyz/ungovernable" target="_blank"><strong>https://foundation.xyz/ungovernable</strong></a><br /><br />Foundation builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your digital sovereignty.<br /><br />As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today’s tech conglomerates.
