  • Do Your Own Research? The Burden of Truth in Crypto Media
    Aug 13 2025

    “Do Your Own Research” — it’s the golden rule of crypto. But what does it actually mean when the information landscape is messy, biased, or flat-out misleading?


    In this episode, Lianna sits down with Catherine Ross-Mychka, seasoned journalist and podcast host, to explore the murky waters of truth in crypto media.


    Together, they tackle tough questions:

    🕵️‍♀️ Can crypto journalists ever be truly independent?

    🧩 How do you verify stories in an industry where anonymous sources and sponsored content are everywhere?

    ⚖️ And is DYOR just a disclaimer… or a warning?

    Whether you're a crypto enthusiast, a skeptic, or someone stuck between X threads and Telegram rumors — this one’s for you.

    🔊 Tune in, get informed, and remember: trust is earned, not assumed.

  • 10 Minutes to React: What Crypto Hacks Teach Us About Speed, Security, and Trust
    Aug 6 2025

    When a crypto hack strikes, the clock starts ticking. In this episode of the Wirex Podcast, we sit down with Lex Fisun, CEO and Co-Founder of Global Ledger, to explore what really happens when things go wrong in Web3—and how fast, smart reactions can make all the difference.

    From the first cracks in a system to the split-second decisions that define a company’s reputation, Lex walks us through the realities of blockchain risk, user protection, and whether AI might be the watchdog Web3 needs.


    We discuss:

    • Whether most hacks start with code or human error
    • If reacting in 10 minutes is even possible
    • Why transparency is everything post-breach
    • The one setting users always overlook
    • How safe hardware wallets really are
    • The protocols that give us hope—and the myths that make us vulnerable

    ⚡One thing’s clear: how a company reacts says more than any whitepaper ever could.


    Tune in now to stay one step ahead.

  • Holding Tight or Letting Go: The Self-Custody Revolution Gets Complicated
    Jul 30 2025

    Is self-custody still the gold standard in crypto, or has it become too complex for everyday users? In this episode, Lianna Adams is joined by Alina Tielnova from Everstake to explore where the line falls between control and convenience—and whether the promise of true ownership is still realistic in today’s ecosystem.


    Together, they unpack:

    • Whether users genuinely want control or just someone to trust
    • How platforms use the “non-custodial” label—and when it’s just good marketing
    • The trade-offs between higher yields and self-sovereignty
    • Why UX might be the silent killer of self-custody
    • What regulators still get wrong about the non-custodial space


    Whether you're a self-custody purist or leaning toward letting go, this conversation dives into the real questions shaping crypto’s future.
