Harden your security. Take action today.

Everything below takes an afternoon:

1 - Decide in advance who needs to be alerted if something happens

2 - Tell them what to do: who they call next, and what stays private

3 - Setup a private and reliable alert system for your home

4 - If you hold crypto, use multisig or a time delay, so no single visit can move everything

Gart does the first and second step from your phone. Set your safe contacts, alert message and protocol once, and a silent press-and-hold sends them when you need it.

2026-10-09T15:18:06Z

The one giving the orders is not the one getting their hands dirty.

The pattern:
- France, Oct 2025: three masked men in the house, the organizer directing them by live video call from abroad.
- Brentwood, California, Dec 2025: two men on site, a third voice on speakerphone through a voice modulator.
- Mulhouse, March 2026: trio in the house, fourth man on the phone walking them through the transfer.
... and more.

Twice this year in France they didn't even have the right house. The list they were working from was years old.

40 attempts in our database failed.
An alarm went off, neighbourgs called the police, cameras, dogs... in several of these cases, those were the difference between failure and success.

If you use your cards right, you can dodge them too, or become too hard to get.

We help people improve their security posture.

2026-09-24T15:43:22Z

🚨UK warning: fake police calls are hitting people 3–4 times a week. Caller ID shows a genuine police number because it's spoofed.

They know your full name and home address. They're calm, confident, well spoken and sound exactly like officers.

The script: "We're investigating, we've found your financial information, we need to verify some details." Ask for a badge number and they'll give one. But it's fake.

Red flags:
- "Don't tell friends or family, it could compromise the operation"
- "This call is being recorded" when you push back
- Questions about crypto accounts and bank details.

Refuse and it turns sinister. One person was threatened with armed police sent to their home on a hoax report. They had to call 999. Being scam-aware doesn't make you immune. The pressure is real.

What to do?

1. Hang up. Caller ID proves nothing.
2. Call 101 from a different phone, or wait 10 minutes first.
3. If you're threatened, call 999.
Real police will never ask for crypto or bank details over the phone, or tell you to keep it from family.

4. If you hold any crypto (even small amounts) or your personal details are already circulating, Gart runs private security advisory.

DM us to book a call or in-person session.

No notes, no Zoom, bitcoin accepted. Gart goes off the record.

We are ending public workshops.
From now on every engagement is private: one client, or the circle they choose, and us.

The open format worked.
It also put strangers in one room to discuss where they live, how they travel, and what is at stake. Most people held back. Sensibly.

What replaces it: executive, family, and private group training, in person, plus remote advisory on a call server we host ourselves.

No notes kept, no recording, no file on you. Invoice only, bitcoin or wire.

In January this year, a streamer in Sweden was beaten and doused in gasoline by attackers who were sure he was rich in crypto. He had none.

Months after, he came out to tell the story.

They picked him for one reason: he was visible, and visible looks rich.

2026-09-11T18:27:25Z

Attackers don't act on what you hold.

They act on their guess at it, built from leaked databases, breach dumps, and whatever you show in public.

On 24 August, 2026, in Jouy-en-Josas, France, three men broke into a 47-year-old's home at dawn, tied and gagged him, and beat him for about two hours for his crypto codes.

They were sure he held close to EUR 6 million. His wallets held about EUR 3,000.

The men at the door were working from bad data. What in your public footprint is feeding someone else's guess?

Most location and safety apps keep you safe by watching you.

They log where you go and sell the pattern.

Gart was built as a safety app that protects you by knowing nothing about you: no account, no tracking, no company that can be made to hand over what it never held.

alenasatoshi (npub1ymx…6hd8) and the team explain why the whole category is a surveillance problem, and how a truly private alert actually works.

2026-08-19T19:55:36Z

There is a way to pull your location and account data from a company like Apple or Meta without a warrant.

It isn't a hack of their systems.
It's a forged police email.

It's called an EDR or emergency data request.
Providers are built to answer them fast, no warrant, because the claim is "a life at risk".

You cannot patch a legal process. Which is why an app that stores your movements is a liability, however much you trust the company holding them.

Gart keeps you safe by knowing nothing about you.
By design.

When your home address leaks, what is your plan?

We have seen it over and over. Someone breaks into a third party that holds the order data and walks away with the link between who owns Bitcoin and where they live.

Assume your data is already out there. Then make deliberate choices about the safety of your home and your family.

Educate yourself in situational awareness, home security, travel habits, and the response protocols worth having ready before you need them.

At the Gart workshop we go through these protocols and shape them around your situation, with a trainer who's also a bitcoiner and a family man himself, and knows what is at stake.

You can secure your keys perfectly and still get robbed at your own front door.

On August 3, three people broke into a home in France looking for crypto. They were caught mid-search because someone saw it coming.

Most holders build the digital layer and stop there. Cold storage, multisig, the hardware wallet in a drawer. The keys are not the weak point here. The front door is.

What stopped it in this case was advance warning. Someone knew enough to act before the search turned into a confrontation.

Secure the keys.
Then secure the room they are in.
Then yourself.

2026-08-07T20:39:29Z

Multisig's strength is diversity.

You spread trust so that no single failure can take everything.

This is what defense in depth means in practice: several independent layers, so one break does not sink the rest.

With multisig, each key can live in a different place, on hardware from a different manufacturer, built from a different source of randomness.

Two days before the Coldcard news, we ran a webinar in partnership with npub1klkk3vrzme455yh9rl2jshq7rc8dpegj3ndf82c3ks2sk40dxt7qulx3vt Hillebrand from Sound Money Solutions on "Multi-signature wallets and timelocks".

Unfortunately, the app needs all these permissions. Otherwise, it wouldn't fetch your location, show incoming alerts, etc...

It wouldn't make sense to start asking for them in a situation where you just want to trigger the alert button.

The permissions are a one time thing. Set them at login, then go to Settings > Alert settings and allow the two more you see there, and you're good to go.

If you need any advice on the use, let us know. Or try our user manual: https://gart.io/user-manual

Two days before the Coldcard news, we ran a webinar in partnership with Sound Money Solutions on the exact weakness it exposed: trusting a single hardware wallet maker with everything.

Over $100 million drained, 1,596 BTC across 7,300+ addresses, and still climbing.

One vendor, one point of failure.

Split your funds behind several keys, each on hardware from a different maker. If one maker's devices are compromised, or just get something badly wrong, no single flaw can move your coins.

Attackers need your money to move right now.

Two setups put a key, or a clock, in the way. We show you both tomorrow.

Multisig means it takes more than one key to move your funds. One threatened person is not enough. A timelock means the money cannot leave until a set time passes.

Nothing goes on the spot.

nevent1q…q3px
A wrench attack runs on one assumption: that one person, under enough pressure, can move everything.

Multisig takes that apart.

No single signer can send the funds, so no single person can be forced to. A time-locked key cannot sign yet, so there is nothing in it to take today.

None of this makes you less of a target, but it removes the single point they can break.

On July 29, we walk through building custody with no single point of coercion.

Good news, we already support signing in with a signer like Amber.

We also built it so you're not stuck approving every signature at exactly the wrong moment. Gart uses a small separate identity for in-app actions, signing them in the background, so your real key stays put in Amber and nothing slows you down.

Give it a try and let me know if Amber connects well for you.

2026-07-24T17:12:45Z

Exposure comes from what you broadcast and what leaks about you.

You control the first, but not the second.

In 2025, a French tax officer was caught selling crypto holders' home addresses and capital gains to criminal gangs. We don't know how long the data had been moving before she was caught, and crews can plan for days to months before acting.

Over that same window, the France case reports we found went from roughly one a year between 2017 and 2024, to 21 in total for 2025.

Comparing January to June only, France went from 10 cases in 2025 to 31 in 2026. A 210% jump.

A Russian restaurant owner in Uluwatu, Bali was taken on the night of July 2 as he rode home from his own restaurant.

Two masked men blocked his motorcycle, cuffed him with plastic restraints, covered his head, and drove him to a two-story building.

He was punched and kicked for close to 30 hours until he gave up the password to his crypto account.

The stop happened at a junction on that route, around 9:35 PM, on a deserted stretch with almost no camera coverage.

They took his Xiaomi phone at the roadside. His villa key was sitting on the motorcycle's dashboard, so they used it to walk into his villa and take a second phone, the one he used to reach his crypto funds.

No arrests so far.

An estimated $4.9M to $5M was taken. They let him out in front of Udayana University Hospital in Jimbaran at 4 AM on July 4.

2026-07-06T17:30:13Z

The most planned attacks don't start with a break-in. They start with a relationship.

Someone spends months as a real business partner, earns your trust, then uses it to move you somewhere they control. No public wallet, no leaked address. The trust is the way in.

On June 29, two women were lured to Pakistan by a business partner they'd worked with for eight months.

Upon arrival they were kidnapped, held at gunpoint, assaulted, and asked to pay a $1.5 million ransom.

One of them reached her father, who alerted police. They were rescued within about two hours.

2026-07-02T15:52:38Z

The most predictable thing you do all day is arrive home.

Same spot, same time, then five minutes in the car catching up on email and messages before you go in. Parked, stationary, heads-down, in the one place tied to your name. That's the easiest window to plan around.

The fix costs nothing. Screen down before you turn onto your street. Park, get out, get inside. Handle the phone once you're behind a locked door.

Credits to John McPhee for this video.

One habit won't protect you, but it shows the pattern: attacks happen in the gap between routine and awareness. Closing that gap is trainable.

Gart runs private advisory calls on exactly this:

Surveillance detection, residential security, emergency response protocols, safe traveling and arrival routines. One-on-one, 90 minutes, focused on how your own patterns look from the outside.

Most people pick a hardware signer like they pick a router. Brand, price, done.

But the right signer depends on what you're defending against.

A remote attacker, a border crossing, someone at your door, an heir who has to recover it without you. Different threats call for different tools, and most setups never make that choice on purpose.

2026-06-26T15:15:32Z

"Not your keys, not your coins."
Every holder knows it. Almost everyone stops there.

You hardened the wallet, air-gapped the signer, split the multisig into three. All of it protects the coins.

None of it protects you.

Under a real threat, the coins follow the person. The last layer of self-custody isn't a device or a seed. It's you, and the people you'd protect.

Secure the keys. Then secure the one thing you can't restore from a backup.

Here's where to start:

June 11, Vitória, Brazil 🇧🇷

A 30-year-old crypto investor is dragged out of his Porsche in broad daylight.

Eight men, three cars, under a minute. The first thing they demand is a crypto transfer. They already knew what he held, because his public profile told them: high-risk crypto and forex trader, 80,000+ followers.

They knew his asset class and his routine before they moved. The recon was his own profile. The ambush was just the last step.

Full case in our database: https://stats.gart.io/#attack-456

Audit your own footprint:

1. Does any public profile name your asset class or signal liquid wealth?

2. Can someone rebuild your week from your posts: gym, office, school, run, the same coffee?

3. Does anything online tie you to your home, your car, or your family?

You don't need an audience to get selected.
You need a profile that names what you hold.

A backup you've never restored from is a guess, not a backup.

Most people who self-custody wrote the seed down once and never tested it. The same blind spot shows up in how the keys were generated, how signing stays off the internet, and whether the signer you picked fits the threat you're defending against.

2026-06-16T17:28:07Z

What does the safety app on your phone know about you?

Gart's answer: nothing. By design.

1. No background tracking. The alert button stays silent until you trigger it. No background location.

2. End-to-end encrypted. Alert content and chat use NIP-44. We can't read them, and neither can the relays.

3. Nothing to hand over. No identity, contacts, or location stored. You can't leak what was never collected.

4. Publicly verifiable. The live alert stream is public. We'd rather you check than trust us.

We wrote exactly how it works.

Location is not tracked in the traditional sense (the app is not fetching constant updates).

When you hit the button, your device takes the GPS, encrypts together with your custom alert message and sends as kind 694.

the event is published to ~6 relays, while your Watcher's devices are listening to your 694 alerts, and when they find one, they decrypt its contents with a shared finder Key (shared within your Group of watchers).

Why build another safety app?
Because the popular ones watch you, sell you, or can be tricked into handing you over.

and his SMS advisory team

https://gart.io/event/gart-webinar-secure-devices-operating-systems-8/register

You will leave with a clear understanding of what a privacy-focused device setup looks like, why each layer matters, and what the implementation path looks like if you decide to take it further. This is an introduction to Gart's Digital Security Remote Training, a one-on-one service that walks you through the full setup at your own pace.

What you will learn
- Why hardware choice matters before you install anything, and what to look for in a privacy-focused device
- How operating system selection affects what data leaves your phone and who can access it
- What profile separation is, and how it creates an absolute wall between your Bitcoin activity and your daily apps
- How routing Bitcoin traffic through Tor changes what your internet provider can see
- What a sustainable maintenance routine looks like, so your setup does not decay over time

2026-05-22T15:09:44Z

BTC Prague is one of the biggest dates on the Bitcoin calendar. Tens of thousands of bitcoiners in one venue, some of them the most recognised and most doxxed names in the industry.

Prague is a safe city. But safe by default is not the same as secure by design. A crowd like that puts the bar above the city average.

Gart is a Gold Partner of BTC Prague this year, and our risk team is running an independent audit of the event, from the gate to the last car leaving the after-party.

2026-04-29T07:27:02Z

Gart is running an independent security audit for BTCPrague (npub167n…zu3r), Europe's largest Bitcoin-only conference.

Scope: a full audit of event security posture, plus a dedicated advisory track for speakers and VIP guests. We work directly with the organizing team and with the on-site security teams on the floor during the event.

The audit covers every layer from the first checkpoint at the gate to the last car leaving the after-party: threat picture, access control, VIP flow, comms, incident protocols, escalation paths, rehearsals.

Why this engagement exists: targeted attacks against publicly known crypto holders are no longer rare. Our dataset documents 75 physical attacks in 2025, climbing through 2026 (stats.gart.io). Conferences put many of the most publicly recognized, most doxxed figures in one venue, on a published schedule. That concentration is what makes the event work. It is also what creates a serious duty of care and BTC Prague completely owns it.

We will not publish what we find or recommend. That, by design, is not something you share with the public. Read more:

Social engineering didn't hack Joe's computer, it got him ...

2026-04-28T13:09:55Z

Social engineering didn't hack Joe's computer, it got him kidnapped. :[

Every day we see several friends being hacked or just media posts about how someone tricked a victim through a legitimately looking call into downloading a backdoor and completely took over their computer.

When it's "just" about a hacked computer or emptied bank account, victims learn a tough lesson and move on. But nobody talks about social engineering that leads to kidnapping, torture, or death.

We want to share one such true story. This has never been publicized.

Our team talked to a victim of a kidnapping for crypto who wanted to do a P2P trade. Let's call him Joe. A young European living somewhere in Central America. Won't share more details.

Joe's first contact with his future kidnappers was through telegram. Text and voice messages convinced Joe to go ahead with the opportunity.

The attackers first sent a person that Joe didn't feel good about: his voice was different from the one in the TG messages. He called the trade off. Well done, so far...

However, the gang was determined. They adjusted their strategy after realizing they needed to send someone more trustworthy.

The second potential trade peer pretended to be a novice to bitcoin. A normal looking middle-aged man. He met Joe at a bar. They talked for hours, and Joe genuinely started to like him. They parted ways with a loose plan to meet again "soon" and make the deal.

The next day, Joe's peer called. The trade had to happen today and it had to be at his family house. The urgency was sudden, but Joe didn't hesitate. He liked the guy, he trusted him so he jumped in his car and headed out.

Who wouldn't trust someone they'd already shared a drink with? Who wouldn't trust a family man? Right?

Upon arrival, Joe realized this was no house, but an apartment building. He thought it was the language barrier. When he was let into the apartment, he was greeted by his peer and invited into a bedroom. So far all good.

But soon after, Joe was surrounded by armed men, beaten, choked, and forced to transfer his crypto, which, unfortunately, was easily accessible from his phone.

After several hours, they changed his clothes and masked him so that he could be transferred out of the apartment complex without facility cameras making a recording. In his own car, they drove him far out into the middle of nowhere, stopped in a poor neighborhood in a dark alley, and stepped out of the car.

At that moment, Joe thought: That's it. I'm a dead man. He closed his eyes and waited, shaking. He was so scared that he sat there inside his car for a while. How long he doesn't remember well. He didn't dare look around. When finally he realized they were gone without killing him, he abandoned the car because they took his keys, his wallets and his phone. He started walking to look for help.

Despite being careful, there we several red flags he ignored. Now Joe knows. But he will be recovering - financially, mentally and emotionally for a while.
We hope this story can help you spot social engineering and avoid becoming yet another case in Gart's kidnapping stats page.

If you're not sure how to avoid falling into a trap, whether in face to face or remote social engineering, invest one day of your life to get a prep with a professional.

We mostly do private sessions which offer ideal amount of privacy and focus on the specific life situation. But those might not be accessible to everyone. So we do Open Group Gart Training - there's a few in our calendar for 2026 already. The closest will be 2 days ahead of BTC Prague. Sign up here:

The Strategic Use of Airplane Mode

In an era where your smartphone can betray your location to anyone willing to pay for it, airplane mode represents one of the simplest yet most effective tools for protecting yourself against both physical threats and digital intrusions. While most people think of airplane mode as something to toggle during flights, its security applications extend far beyond aviation compliance.

The Strategic Use of Airplane Mode

Your phone broadcasts your location 24/7. Airplane mode is a simple way to stop it. It isn't just for flights. It's a one-tap security tool that:

- Breaks the continuous location record criminals and corrupt insiders can buy
- Stops your device from transmitting during sensitive meetings
- Creates information gaps that hide where you've been

The catch? It only works while it's on. The moment you reconnect, tracking resumes. Use it before traveling to sensitive locations. Keep it on during the visit. Reconnect after you've left.
Simple. Free. Already on your phone.

Your smartphone transmits your location to corporate servers every 4.5 minutes, even when you've explicitly opted out. It knows which medical clinics you visit, which protests you attend, and which friends you spend nights with, and this information is sold to data brokers, advertisers, and government agencies without meaningful consent.

This guide covers the surveillance problem, the technical architecture that solves it, and a complete walkthrough from installation to hardened configuration with privacy-respecting applications. naddr1qq…ck6x
