Sigbash: Covenant-Like Policies on Bitcoin Without a Soft Fork with Arbedout | SLP737

In this episode, Stephan sits down with Arbedout to explore one
of the most debated technical topics in Bitcoin today: covenants,
vaults, and the future of Bitcoin custody infrastructure.

They discuss why many people may be misunderstanding where the
real demand for covenants comes from, and how covenant-related
features could improve Bitcoin self-custody through vaults,
spending limits, recovery mechanisms, and more secure long-term
storage setups.

The conversation also explores Bitcoin adoption, conviction,
long-term store of value dynamics, and the psychological
challenges of holding Bitcoin through volatility.
