David and Michael in the interview with Ali Plumb for BBC Radio 1, 10th July 2023

I compared it with it's podcast version and there are some bits that are cut out in the video 👀 but I added them into the transcript ❤ 🐍😊 .

AP: If you're thinking I'm the kind of guy that rocks up to a Good Omens interview with...

Michael: With the book.

David: Oh, well done.

Michael: We'd be correct.

AP: Yeah.

[GOS2 Promo]

AP: So after such a successful and well received first series, what gives you guys?

David: Why risk it?

AP: Why risk it.

Michael: What gives you the right?!

AP: What gives you the cojones to do another one?

Michael: I know.

AP: How dare you?

Michael: It's terrible. When I wrote it.... Well, no, I mean, that's the thing, really, I mean, it's Neil and Terry's baby. And we'd always known that they'd gone beyond the world of the first book. In fact, there's stuff that's not in the first book, in the first series. So Gabriel is a character, you know, who's not there. So we'd always known that there was a lot more.

David: The ideas, the threads.

Michael: Exactly. And they even had a name for a sequel. 668: The Neighbour of the Beast. Which is hilarious.

[A cut out part that is not in the video, but you can listen to in the podcast version of it:

AP: Just take, write the joke and then work it out later.

Michael: The best Good Omens joke isn't even in the Good Omens book.

David: Yeah.

Michael: And so we knew there was all that. So I think given that, that gave certainly us the confidence to know that we were in, you know, safe hands.

David: Yeah.

Michael: And I think gave Neil the sense that it was worth exploring, going further, because I think without that, he would never have done it. If he didn't feel that Terry was part of that ride as well, then I don't think he would have gone on it.

]

AP: At the risk of reading from the scripture, this is what's in the hardback copy of Good Omens: 'Why isn't there a sequel? Neil: Well, we know how the sequel goes. We played around with the idea whilst we were on tour. We even discussed a few scenes, but we could never quite work up the enthusiasm. It'd have been fun. We'd split the cash. But we both had other things to do'.

Michael: Yes. It's very much how we felt, isn't it? We'll split the cash.

David: Yeah.

AP: And run.

Michael: You know, and if we got nothing else on.

David: Well, yeah.

Ap: And you kind of enjoy each other's company?

Michael: I mean, enjoy is a strong word.

David: We're very good at faking it.

AP: Actors. I love it.

David: Yeah, exactly, exactly.

Michael: Yeah, exactly.

AP: When, outside of a show's context or the film's context, have you felt physically, visually the silliest? Because I think in this show there have to be moments. Green screen, full orange wig hair, that you go, no one take a photo of me right now.

David: The opening scene of Season Two is set in space and we're dressed as sort of old fashioned-

Michael: That makes it sound like sort of an episode of Blakes 7 or something, it's not Sci-Fi space, is it?

David: There's nothing wrong with that.

Michael: No, there's nothing... I mean I love it.

David: Jesus,

AP: Are you stepping up saying Sci-Fi's rubbish at this-

Michael: No, no, no! Of course not! No. But what I'm saying is-

David: I don't know who this is

Michael: David is making it sound like it's like Aziraphale and Crowley are in a rocket ship.

David: It is set in space!

Michael: Well, yeah.

David: First series set in space! You can't... it's just factual.

Michael: But not like space 1999.

David: Just space.

AP: It's pure, undiluted space.

David: It's set in space. In fact, it is undiluted space. And for that, we were dressed as a traditional angel in a sort of nighties...

Michael: Yes, we weren't in silver spandex.

David: We were in nighties.

Michael: We were.

David: And we were strapped to make this floating in space - and they didn't have this on Blakes 7 - we were strapped onto these gurneys and moved up and down.

[hehe bonus pic :)]

Michael: I had a jetpack.

[again, cut out in the video but present in the podcast version

David: I mean, it looks beautiful. The finished, the finished piece.

Michael: It was very odd, wasn't it? Yes. We were both sort of just like.

David: Yes.

Michael: Hovering around each other.

David: And it was, it was ignoble. Some of the being strapped in and out.

Michael: It was. Yeah.

]

AP: At least it's not Jon Hamming into a room... full Hamm.

[GOS2 Promo]

[again, cut out in the video but present in the podcast version

David: The naked Hamm? The naked Hamm was... yeah. He seemed pretty...

Michael: He seemed very relaxed.

AP: He insisted on spending more scenes in that costume.

]

Michael: That was never in the script.

David: No, he just turned up on set.

Michael: That's how he showed up.

David: I had an idea, guys!

Michael: Yes. No, there's lots to look forward to.

AP bursts out laughing: Sorry.

Michael: And lots to look back on.

AP: This second series, having a little bit more wiggle room in terms of where you might be able to take the characters, I think it's fair enough to say. Do you feel more active input.

[again, cut out in the video but present in the podcast version

AP: Into where they might go? Because to me, they strike as having a very strong Woody and Buzz factor of...

David: Right.

AP: Bear with me here. You're both not very good at your jobs.

David: How dare you?

AP: It's true. One's no angel. One's far from evil.

David: That's true.

AP: And you kind of are fudging it constantly.

]

AP: Do you feel you have more room to kind of fudge here and fudge there and really muck about with the characters now?

Michael: I mean, I every day when we start, I like to first of all say, Neil, I've got no interest in hearing what you're going to say. This is what I think should happen.

David: Yeah.

Michael: I mean, the thing is, when you've got Neil Gaiman writing it-

David: Yeah.

Michael: -you should have just go, off you go, mate.

David: The last thing you want to do is start putting in your ideas. You don't want to limit anything that's going to come out.

Michael: It's like brain. It's like when Ringo says, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

AP: Yesterday, I have notes.

Michael: Listen, listen to what I've come up with.

AP: There's too much guitar in this.

David: Yeah.

AP: More drums.

David: Yeah.

Michael: Yeah. I think one of the things about Neil that is so wonderful is that he is so open and generous with ideas,

David: Yes.

Michael: and he's so not precious about what he's written. He is very respectful of what he and Terry created and is probably a bigger fan than any other fan, but he's not precious about it and he's very open to collaboration. In fact, he's probably the most collaborative

David: Yes.

Michael: I'd ever come across in my life.

David: Yes, absolutely.

Michael: So he loves watching what other people bring to the table, not just actors, but, you know, designers, everyone. And then I think he takes from that and is influenced by that. So it's very collaborative in that sense.

David: Yes. But if we influenced where the characters went in season two, it was sort of circumstantially.

AP: Right.

Michael: Yeah.

David: It was sort of by the act of what happened during season one and getting to know Neil and getting to know each other. But the great joy for us is turning up to these wonderful scripts and going, oh, I get to take this character here now. What a lark.

[again, cut out in the video but present in the podcast version

Michael: I mean, I wrote some very stern emails to him.

David: Yeah.

Michael: Which I was glad to see that he totally ignored.

AP: Screen time for me.

Michael: Yes, exactly.

AP: I like to think the 'I was right, or rather, you were right and I was wrong' dance was organic in the moment, not in the script. And could you give us a quick how might I recreate that beautiful...

David: Absolutely not. No. I worked with the choreographer for some days.

Michael: It's true.

David: Yeah.

Michael: It's true. And am I right in saying that... I wonder if this exists? But when we were filming it, didn't I, on the last take, I made you do it once with you thinking that you were doing it for real, but actually it wasn't for real. It was just so I could do.

David: It was so you could have-

Michael: So I could Strictly Come Dancing [british dance contest]-

David: Exactly that. Does it exist? I think it does exist.

Michael: It must have actually built... I had cards made with scores on them and David, God bless him, came in and did the whole thing again, thinking that he was doing it for the filming. And in fact, it was literally just so at the end I could go, 'SEVEEEEEEN'! [It was filmed, hehe, see here :)]

David: Yeah. But I don't want Amazon to think we're wasting your production...

AP: Money and time. No.

David: And it will show up on a blooper reel somewhere.

Michael: There was no film. There was no film.

AP: It was definitely not a waste of time. No, absolutely not.

]

AP: What would you say the fans have responded most to from the first series when you meet them at comic cons or on social media or what have you? Are there moments from the first series where they love talking about that scene?

Michael: Well, I think people really enjoy the going through history stuff, don't they? I mean, we thoroughly.

David: We certainly do. There's just something about the characters and their relationship, though, that seems to have just caught fire. I mean the amount of...

AP :I won’t read some ot the stories I’ve glanced upon.

David: Right.

AP: Yes. Fanfiction is quite….

David: Oh, I see. Oh that is not for us to read.

Michael: Oh I read it all.

AP: Oh you should. You write most of it, right?

Michael: I write most of it.

David: But it's lovely to see. And I have seen more than I can count. Aziraphale and Crowleys showing up. People dressed and always in twos, always in pairs.

Michael: Yes.

David: You know, and that's lovely. And that seems to absolutely encapsulate what the whole show is about, I think.

AP: Tattoos, fan art.

David: Definitely, yes. Seen a couple of tattoos.

Michael: Yeah.

AP: Yeah. Do you get fans in the street quoting lines or just pointing and staring? Because you two together can't really walk down the street.

David: Michael doesn't walk anywhere.

Michael: Those days are long gone.

AP: Jackpack.

David: Yeah.

Micheal: Yeah.

AP: Yeah, that's fair.

Michael: Well, I get a lot of ‘To the world’.

David: Oh, yes. Nice.

Michael: People like to… yeah.

David: Yeah.

Michael: And 'You go too fast, Crowley.’

David: Ooh.

Michael: There’s a lot of that. That gets jumped around.

AP: What about... and this is a kind of BAFTA winning question, so just send it my way.

David: Wow.

AP: Would you say these characters are in your top three most fun characters you've ever played? Because they strike me as being... I'd probably play these characters forever if I could.

Michael and David: Yeah.

Michael: This is like on what's that show when people have to say whether they want to date each other again? You go first. Top three?

David: I mean...

AP: Number two...one?

David: It'd be a weird scenario to say it wasn't.

AP: Yeah, I agree.

David: In this situation.

AP: Yeah.

David: To start something: well, I mean, it's sort in the little twenties. But... No, we did have an irresponsible amount of fun.

Michael: Yes. Not really like working.

AP: No.

Michael: I mean, I very much hope that we eventually get to, in one way or another, in one form or another,

David: Yeah.

Michael: get to play them just very, very old. And it may well be... I mean, we joke about doing a theatrical tour.

AP: And swapping.

David: I'm not joking. I'm not joking about that.

Michael: No.

David: It's a lovely little retirement plan.

Michael: I know.

AP: I'm dead keen on Good Omens 666. I think...

Michael: Oh!

AP: It's just there.

Michael: Yes.

David: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

AP: Think about it. Post apocalyptic...

Michael: Part, like Good Omens 1, 2, 3, all the way up to 666. I mean, that's a long running series. That's longer than Frasier.

AP: Big words. If a bad joke's worth telling. 666.

Michael: Telling over and over again.

AP: Over and over and over.

David: Yeah.

AP: Guys, I'm going to ask you one last favour as I wrap things up, which is I have at the front of this book, one Mr. Neil Gaiman.

[shows a copy of Good Omens signed by Neil Gaiman].

AP: He signed it and he said as he often does: Ali, have a good doomsday. Would you care to deface?

Michael: I heard the other day that someone went to interview George Harrison and the person who interviewed him said, would you mind signing this record? Whatever it know, the white album, whatever. And he went, do you want them all? And they used to all write each other's name, all sign each other's names.

David: Wow.

Michael: Because they had to do it so much.

David: Do you want to do mine?

Michael: Just get Neil to do that.

AP: Could you please sign as your man? I'll be very lucky.

Michael: On a different page.

AP: You pick your own page, deface as you will.

Michael: Yeah. Look at that. I do a little halo.

David: Oh, that's given me an idea.

Michael: Oh look at that, yeah.

AP: And then while I'm here, I'm going to do the super unprofessional thing of asking for a photograph, if that's allowed.

David: Yeah.

Michael: Oh, look at that.

David: That's perfect.

Michael: That's nice, isn't it?

AP: Beautiful. Would you mind helping me out?

David: Do you see what we've done there, Ali?

AP: Oh, thank you!

Michael: And yours is D for...

AP: I'm going to kneel behind you.

David: Sure.

Michael: I thought I should turn my M into wings.

David: Oooh.

Michael: This is, this is...

AP: Guys, as you may have worked out, big fan.

David: Cheers, Ali.

Without more ado, I'm extremely happy to invite Mitchell Amador to the Cryptonews podcast. Mitchell, welcome to the program, my pal. Mitchell Amador Thank you. It's a challenging list of professional athletes do not hold me responsible to it. Matt Zahab Hey, when there's an excellent bio, it needs to read effectively. Congratulations on the remarkable background and for the listeners in the house who can not see you. That is among the coolest business t-shirts I've seen up until now. How can I snag among those bad young boys? Mitchell Amador Oh, you need to discover an important vulnerability and conserve a great deal of individuals's funds. If you do. I will provide it myself. Matt Zahab Is that how you get Immunefi t-shirt? Intriguing. No, no e-commerce shop? Mitchell Amador No, no paradises no. It's a matter of visual quality. You understand, you can't simply make merch offered it needs to be made through blood and suffering. Matt Zahab Gotcha. Mitchell Amador We have actually made an entire lot of intriguing boodle, however just the very best white hats on the planet can declare it. Matt Zahab So I seem like this might be like a Yeezy 2.0 sort of when it came out and Yeezys were choosing like 10 grand a pop on eBay.

And Craigslist and Facebook market since its supply was so low is that what's going to occur to Immunefi t-shirts like just white hat. That's it? Mitchell Amador Quite potentially. I do not even understand if we'll make enough for a market to form, God ready to loan. Actually unique Hermes design. Matt Zahab Yes, Hermes what a brand name. Absolutely nothing much better than a Hermes tie. By the method. Do you have any Hermes ties? Mitchell Amador No. I didn't even understand they made ties. I didn't understand they made male things. Matt Zahab To me the goat of ties. Unbelievable. Mitchell Amador Okay, well, I'll need to on my partner now, she will evaluate me. Matt Zahab Unless it's unless there's just knockouts. Anyways, enough about style. Let's enter into the enjoyable things here. Immunefi, you are the creator of Immunefi and you and the group have actually paid a definitely ridiculous quantity of cash over60 Mil and cash. Did you ever believe that you 'd be paying such a large amount of cash to individuals actually conserving billions of dollars? Mitchell Amador Yes, I was definitely specific of it. It was the factor we released the business. Matt Zahab Actually? Mitchell Amador Yeah. I suggest, when we when we began. For some context, right, you understand, you can inform from my background, I've been in this area for a long time. And those are really generous functions, you need to handle whatever issues are coming your method. And like the security stack in crypto today is 100 times much better than it was several years earlier. Therefore we would have events like this all the time. And this is what developed the understanding for establishing Immunefi in the very first location. We understood that security was a losing video game. Currently, in this area, we understood just how much cash was at threat, due to the fact that you understand, we had actually been those exchanges who got hacked, we had actually been on the within events, handling them securing a job's Treasury or safeguarding their facilities that handle their secrets.. We understood how susceptible things were. And we understood how important it was to secure them. Due to the fact that we had actually remained in those circumstances where you need to do generally anything. You need to play ball with whoever comes your method. You need to discover a method to secure your properties and your facilities. Due to the fact that to refrain from doing so is specific death for whatever that you've produced. Far the overall damage of the equity that you've labored on for years, and years, and years. It's like you understand, you state, Oh, well, did you believe you would be paying out like a $10 million bounty? Well, yeah, naturally, on a long adequate timeframe. 2 years was quite quick. Not gon na lie, however like on a 510 year timeframe for sure. Since we had like simply looking at the steady coin examples, right, or the exchange examples, there have actually currently been numerous, lots of events, that would have been more suitable to have actually been prevented, were paying 10 mil out of pocket to get rid of that threat element would have been significantly more effective. And understanding that it was a certainty, everyone would take that offer. It was just a matter of time. Till we got to these type of numbers. The only concern was when? Can we bring this brand-new requirement to this area? For how long will it consider individuals to recognize that you actually, actually, actually need to focus on security over whatever else? And we were lucky that it occurs faster instead of later on. Matt Zahab How do you pay these bounties out? Like how do the good white hat guys and do that? who discover the bugs? How did they earn money out? Mitchell Amador The essential concern, so not just preparing to get your Immunefi t-shirt, however you're likewise resembling, how do I get my ticket? Well, it's all, you understand, quite, quite user-friendly.

We've got 2 methods of generally dealing with this. Primary is, white hat sends the vulnerability, right, the bug report goes through our extremely, let's call it in depth procedure for product packaging and structuring that report. That entire deal is settled, which can be a long procedure, in and of itself, right, it can extend over. We've seen things dealt with in 15 minutes, we've dealt with things that take 45 days? Really made complex cases, sluggish cases. Okay. Which can be as basic as alright, all of us settle on the effect and the seriousness cool, or, Hey, appearance, we concur it's genuine bug, however we disagree on the effect. Okay, now we need to discuss it. We get through all that. We verified this is a genuine bug, ideally, for you. Yeah, it's a million dollar important vulnerability. And what do we do now? Well, it's really easy. We state, hey, look, here's the address, we've examined it 3 times, we've observed, you understand, individuals make errors with their address this, we've cut a punch a little functions in, that will triple look at behalf of the users and we state, Look, I'm sending their charge that easy. And it's often paid on crypto, there are some exceptions where we'll send out cash to a savings account. The huge bulk of users choose paying cash in crypto, usually, that's steady coins USDC. In some cases USDT, usually a color, you understand, the white hats, particularly do choose color. And in some cases that's in tokens. For example, some of the European native tokens right there in the Aurora tokens, however it will differ. And there's not a clear connection in between, say bounty size, and whether it's in tokens or steady. CO payment, for instance, was all in trainees. Matt Zahab Can you discuss the distinction in between how a white hat would deal with Immunefi and how a white hat would simply arrange of go their own method? Let's state Company X has $100 million bug and white hat individual, why goes hello, I'm going to work my magic here. What's the like? What are the benefits and drawbacks with dealing with you people, we're versus simply doing it themselves? Mitchell Amador Sure. This is part of the factor we formed the business in the very first location, the experience of rolling your own bug bounty program, right and reveal it significantly more so on the side of the white hats of revealing was so bad, and so horrendous and so unpleasant, that we understood that there required to be a service, or we 'd all be running the risk of disastrous damage throughout the community. If you're on your own, I'm assisting deal a pal offer with the case right now a lot of jobs do not have a bug bounty program, they discovered a remarkable vulnerability that puts major properties at threats. What do you do? Well, you attempt and connect with the appropriate workers at whatever organization that you're handling. Now, if you've ever done sales prior to, for instance, and you're attempting to reach the ideal individual, you understand how tough that can be to browse and resemble, Oh, hello, who's accountable for your security, inside Company X, Y, Zed. You're gon na be on this wild goose chase? Simply for the start, you discovered that like alive payload, you've got a make use of, it can be run, the whatever the organization is, they're susceptible. And yet, you understand, you're going to invest days, weeks, months, simply attempting to get access to the ideal individual. Yeah, then you get access to the best individual. You're fortunate many of the time, you may, you might simply not ever get gain access to, and you simply have to call it a day or you openly divulge whatever. Let's state you get fortunate you make a break and what occurs next, or they have a bug bounty program of their own. Let's state they run it. And they hosted themselves. What occurs next? Well, then you're now talking with who you hope is either it's either going to be an engineer, usually, or is going to be the head of security,

or often it's even going to be the CEO or a COO, if they do not have that sort of function. And in all cases, this individual is going to be rattled. They've simply found that you've got a sword of Damocles, right, a sword hanging by a thread over their head and you've had it for days, weeks, months. And you're stating you desire something for it? A minimum of, that's how they translate it. They're really worried. They're adversarial. They're like this individual might actually mess me up. Do they desire to take benefit of me, that's the only factor they would get in contact? That's not the case. Certainly, the white hat by act by divulging in the very first location is revealing their excellent faith. Individuals in a state of worry do not react that method. Therefore they fret and the tension over it, and now you're attempting to describe, hey, here's the vulnerability, here's how you need to repair it by you understand, please, you understand, likewise pay me for my great. Preferably, you understand, this things does not isn't totally free. And they're like, is it genuine? I do not believe it's genuine. I believe you're attempting to rip-off me. And after that they're like, oh, shoot, it's genuine. I still believe you're attempting to fraud me, simply even if it is genuine. And you divulged in great faith. Matt Zahab So the entire procedure, it's an outright shitshow. And, and once again, I'm attempting to put my feet in the because in a corporation shoes. It's like if I had $100 million hack insight bug rather, inside my corporation in some in John comes out to me and goes, Hey, Matt, you got to pay me 10 mil to conserve 100 What do you state? Like that's, that's a quite insane scenario. You understand, like, those circumstances do not grow on trees. And I would likewise resemble, John, you're complete of shit. And after that I 'd most likely get 100 Mil taken from me. Mitchell Amador That's what Equifax did. And they had like, you understand, half of America social security information from them? It's like we all understand with our consumers, like we truly do. We remained in that position, we understand how tough it is. At the very same time, none of that is the best action. All of that is disadvantageous. All of that develops a terrible experience for the white hat, who is otherwise conserving your bacon, and revealing that they're running in excellent faith. It's damaging your future security capacity, since word goes out, and after that no one wishes to assist you. No one wishes to handle you. Due to the fact that after all, you simply you screw, whoever approaches you in great faith and takes a danger. And it's a mess. And there's nevermind, like, envision determining a benefit. You have no bug bounty program, you have no expectations. Like, how do you determine that? Well, it's straight up settlement, where you're indirectly it's a zero-sum video game. Like, no matter how you cut that, chances are, the white hat is going to be extremely disappointed with you, since you'll wish to protect funds. And no matter what you do, like you will most likely be extremely discontented with what you pay, since you're constantly gon na resemble, well, could not we have gotten a more affordable? There's no sense of what's reasonable worth. It's simply a dish for disappointments. And this is what all bug bounties remained in crypto. For many years. Prior to we occurred, simply consistent disappointments that made bug bounty programs so reliable that the large bulk of the area didn't even trouble utilizing them. Like they weren't even worth the time. Matt Zahab Was there a specific circumstances, that made you feel the requirement to co discovered the business? Like what like, were you a part of a hack yourself? Or a co-founder, whatever the case may be? Mitchell Amador I imply, let's simply state I've been, I've lost lots of cash in our market. That wasn't the thing that kind of stimulated me on. That's like expense of operating. We're in crypto early, you understand, things are a mess. Matt Zahab

Shit's gon na strike the fan.? Mitchell Amador You can do whatever, right, it still occurs like heaps of wallets. I ruined how they develop their seed expressions. Which caused vulnerabilities on the line that's taken place like half a lots times, and let you understand, all the funds you put in there susceptible some years later on. Like, it's simply includes the area. The minute where I was like, Okay, we require a systemic option was when I was on, I was in Switzerland on this on this mountain, I was extremely ill. I was extremely ill and moody and dissatisfied. And I didn't like Switzerland, so pricey. And it was cold, like bad mix of characteristics. For me, the food isn't to my preference. It's like whatever is simply making me irritable. I had all this cash maker now. At and it was a lot for me. And it's gon na be a lot for a great deal of individuals. It was a lot for me. I resembled, I do not actually feel great about this. I do not truly feel safe about this. What do I do about this? I've remained in this area for so long. I understand great deals of security individuals, however for some factor, like, where are my security guarantees here? Why ought to I think that the cash that I put here is safe. And I began inspecting. I resembled, I should not think it, make it out, run a few of the very best security ops and in the area, for sure. When I went to examine, right, why should I be particular about it? You understand, you go and ask the individual you're like, look, all code is insecure. All code is going to have bugs. And we do the very best possible work that we can. They're a remarkable, incredible group. There's simply like that as a danger aspect for them too. And you do not get the within view. You do not get to see the audits. You do not get to see the security evaluations. You do not get to see the QA that's going on to verify how great they're doing it from the exterior. You're similar to, I do not have a great deal of excellent factors to be positive of any specific clever agreement that my cash's in. And it was at that minute when I comprehended so that when I simply did when I absorbed that insight completely, I understood that it's like, fine, this requires a systemic service, we require an entire security stack. And if we do not establish that security stack, we are going to doom this area to an amazing variety of thefts. That security stack, it has to like it requires to begin the most essential piece. And the important things I was completely missing out on resembled, What are your relied on guarantees? What are your security guarantees? How do you secure yourself when you're on Main internet when all the cash's truly there? Which's how we pertained to this conclusion of bug bounties for like, you understand, we determined an entire list of what the issues in the security stack were, where all the important things required to be dealt with, what sort of innovation required to exist, and we concerned the conclusion of Okay, this one, bug bounties is the hardest. It's the hardest. It's the least enjoyable. It's the worst experience. And it's the most crucial to in fact conserving individuals from getting robbed. We're like, oh, well, you understand, me and my buddies, we all had the exact same nature go to the hardest issue. toss ourselves versus the wall. That's what we did. Matt Zahab A number of things there. One, I like that story. Thank you for informing me that. I typically discover that individuals have these aha minutes in life comparable to you did while you understand being on a mountain in Switzerland, freezing your balls off, like when you're out of your convenience zone, like fantastic things take place, you understand, and it's odd like that. It's practically paradoxical, where a great deal of amazing concepts are developed when you're in the very best of minute drinking on a Mai Tai on a beach in Thailand or Bahamas. And on the other side, while you're freezing your NADs off on a cold mountain in Switzerland, it's amusing how the world works.

Not exactly sure if you have any commentary on that. The 2nd is you discovering an unsexy issue. And it being really successful. That's another sort of, you understand, rule in life that is so obvious that nobody likes to pursue, like, if you were to ask me, and no offense to you in the group, I'm sure not offense taken, you people are doing effectively, heck, you simply raised a great deal of cash, however he's prepared to, we'll get to that quickly. Like, I would not desire to be paying out bug bounties. That's not an area I 'd wish to operate in. It's friggin crucial. It's not attractive, however it foots the bill. And it does more than that. It's simply yeah, not exactly sure where I'm opting for those 2 points. Amusing how life works. Often. Mitchell Amador It's real. There's this, you understand, amusing phenomenon, you got those terrific concepts on the one side, however the things that actually move the needle, right, in a systemic method, in a method that uses to everyone, or big populations, the easy things, right, like someone discovered a method to make insurance coverage, inexpensive and simple to compute, and unexpectedly everyone can get insurance coverage for like, Well, why would anyone care about that, however then you have, you understand, 1020 30% of the population no longer worrying, every day of their life, that their home is gon na go on fire, that the home is gon na get flooded. This maximizes this huge bounty of human energy and capacity. Life is like that. And for our part, like, the root of that is the stress and anxiety, the worry that creators have, that we had, when we were constructing. We're, we're constructing all this amazing facilities, we're attempting to develop the rails? We're attempting to produce the piping for a brand-new world. And we're vesting work, we're all in we're putting skin in the video game, where are you understand, all in on our portfolio, like that job is our dream that we're attempting to develop. And our entire life course is contingent on its result. And you're stuck to this frustrating worry and stress and anxiety that a single vulnerability due to the fact that some engineer had a bad day or consumed excessive of a smile, whatever, vulnerability insinuated, and you got trashed. Due to the fact that of that. It's like this unbelievable reverse. It's like a it's like a hell lotto. A lotto from hell, you understand that you may have drawn that fortunate ticket due to the fact that somebody slipped up. And the outcome is the damage of years of your labor. And we're like, fine, that's bad. That's like that's harmful. Now, we're encouraged to go and repair that. Which does indicate, we need to handle like, truly hard workflows and truly difficult issues. I believe that releasing individuals up so that they do not have to fret about these things, either as a creator or as a user of these innovations is eventually very beneficial. Matt Zahab I like that. Can you Mitchell, can you stroll me through a number of excellent stories about discovering bugs that have actually assisted secure a few of those 60 billion and user funds will be romance in the crypto news pod. You do not need to not you do not need to drop names. If you have any actually great stories, I 'd like to hear. Mitchell Amador There's been a great deal of such cases. Clearly, a great deal of this things is discrete. I'm attempting to be mindful with what I state. There was this enjoyable case like I'll go back to the this was a really early days for us. It was this 3rd or 4th vital vulnerability that we handled the task called ArmorFi and the creators A man called Robert Forester, he's a fantastic character, and is a strong security man was a bug Hunter himself. He comprehended right away the worth of what we were doing, and chose to publish this huge million dollar bounty on day one. And he's all prepared, he's pumped, he's gone through numerous audits, he's like, I've done whatever that might perhaps be done.

Now I'm gon na launch within 24 hours, somebody throughout the world had actually discovered a gamebreaking vulnerability that would have enabled somebody to take all the user funds that remained in that item. His was an insurance protection item. Therefore one exploitation, which would occur to be the claim function, somebody might click set off the claim function, and they would simply take it all. It's like the most significant insurance coverage pay day in the history of crypto, right. Matt Zahab One click Mitchell Amador One click, and what was the reason for it? What was the reason for it? An additional asterisk, simply wish to get in touch with screwed up the mathematics, increase the exponent by the exponent. Resulted in all possible funds, simply this small thing that needs to have been captured in QA, need to have been captured by automated tooling needs to have been captured in both audits. Everyone missed it. Everyone did. And as an outcome, like the only individual who might come and conserve the day, this function would have been set off, by the method by the very first individual who declared from that insurance coverage item. It's like, it wasn't like, oh, well, perhaps the hack would not have taken place? No, it was 100% particular that it would have been set off. The very first individual to declare their refund would have taken all everybody's cash. And he would resemble, well, we'll go if I litigate. The person who ended up conserving the day ended up being this young German gentleman who simply looked at it, he was like, Well, you understand, I believe this is an unbelievable task to believe this is unbelievable bounty, and I believe I can resolve this problem. Let me reveal it. Within, you understand, one, 2 hours after the disclosure, we were connecting things down, stopping briefly the agreements, cleaning up whatever up resembling it's all on hold, it's all on hold. And it's an amusing occasion. We repaired it, using funds were all conserved. They had a token with that task in it, and it pumped on the news that the bug bounty worked which the security was so efficient. Pump like 3, really unreasonable, however I enjoyed that it exercised well for him. That was alright. Matt Zahab What did the German lad get? What did he get for his bounty. Mitchell Amador We've got about a million dollars worth of tokens, Commander being what wound up being a bit more by the time it was provided. Matt Zahab Wow, possibly I ought to find out how to code and be a white hat or Mitchell Amador It's a progressively engaging profession course. What can I state? You got to be you understand, truly, actually into it. It's difficult. If you consider bounties.? And you think of security bug bounties are essentially well what if you did code evaluation? If you did vulnerability analysis, however you put it on max problem what's the video gaming term for self-destructive problem? Well stated whatever that is, it's simply all on all of them all the time. Matt Zahab That's a fantastic example that well that's the novella quote right play foolish video games win foolish rewards play huge video games play huge no win huge rewards. There's a quite friggin huge video game you're playing. Mitchell Amador Sure well I've won a great deal of very rewards in my life so Matt Zahab You're preaching choir retweet king of the silly rewards over here. Mitchell we got to take fast break and offer a substantial shout out to our sponsor the program which is PrimeXBT I enjoy PrimeXBT you men understand why? Due to the fact that they use a robust trading system for both newbies and expert traders does not matter if you're a novice or a veterinarian.

Once again, that is CRYPTONEWS50 CRYPTONEWS50 all one word to get 50% of your deposit credited to your trading account. Now back to the program with Mitchell. Mitchell, you people ended up being the most significant and leading security platform for all of crypto in less than 2 years. That is absolutely something to compose house about. That is exceptionally outstanding. You got to provide me a couple suggestions here. Couple bits. A number of golden nuggets, clearly correct time best location. No shit. Offer me some non-obvious things that you and the group did to scale to this extraordinary task. Mitchell Amador I can inform you some tricks however they're gon na frighten you Sure. Do you wish to if you wish to. Matt Zahab I'm all ears strike me. Mitchell Amador Okay, well, you understand, top, you got to be fortunate. Time ideal location constantly the most essential thing. For us something that showed incredibly reliable. And it's been the basic viewpoint for how a variety of my circle I think I run our operation has actually been, go and do the difficult things anywhere the hardest issues are, is the significant chance where there's a possibility to produce genuine worth. And we took that to the limitations. With Immunefi, we went, we generally released and we went straight to hardmode. For example, we began taking clients like right from day one, when all we had was a Google kind, right and an average listings page, simply a table, simply a giant A, and we're like, No, we're in organization. Let's go. We did complete on attempting 24/ 7 processing of reports from the first day. They were simply concerning strike our inbox, we would examine them and send out the outcomes back to the clients, which is an extremely tough thing, if you understand what it's like to run 24/ 7 security groups. Matt Zahab I do not which would be headache fuel. Mitchell Amador Almost no one in this area, does it? We're one of the only ones. You understand, we did that. And this is from the first day. Another day. Something, while this was more like day30 When we found this issue, like there were these disagreements in between the tasks, what do we do? It's like, well, you generally require like an arbitration system in between them.? How do we get that in? And the response resembled, there is no law in this. There's no structure for handling there's no absolutely nothing. And it resembled, Well, I think we'll simply need to make it ourselves, which is what we did. And we ended up being the conciliators, now we have an entire set of teachings on how to translate these kinds of occasions and how to manage them and an entire series of case research studies and histories for how to work them out. It was, you understand, this is this typical style of like, alright, what's the most hard issue things that no one have actually ever resolved prior to, that are very unclear, it's like go towards them. They exist as points of user friction, if you fix them, you produce unbelievable worth. For everyone not winning wasn't simply for the consumers? Certainly, it was for us as an organization. It was for the consumers by driving real bug reports. Bug bounties didn't operate in crypto, however for us, we made them work. And it was for the users. Sure, we took that suffering on ourselves, you understand, forever nights, keeping up till 567 remain in the early morning to do the job. Dealing with very difficult cases, and conflicts mediations and making no work. The outcome of that was billions of dollars in funds conserved the outcome of that was the production of an entire market committed to proactively conserving tasks and utilize your funds. Like we went towards the heart thing, and the outcomes was an entire market. And I believe that uses in a great deal of cases. Matt Zahab Well stated. I like seeing how enthusiastic and fired up you have to do with this. Like it's I can inform you definitely enjoy this shit. There's no requirement for Firestarter under your ass any early morning. Mitchell Amador

Yeah, well, I take a look at it in this manner. In addition to simply being quite enthusiastic about making blockchain work, which we're doing, right, like, if we prosper in our objective to make the area more safe, we are straight allowing the blockchain world and if we stop working in our objective, a blockchain world is not possible. The worry of hacks, threat and so forth insecurity in our area will revoke its possible to be the rails the future monetary rails of the world. That's inspiring. You and I, Matt, you and I have cash in this area in this domain. And if we do not safeguard it, well, I do not understand where are you? I'm going to be a quite unfortunate panda. About all of it. I do not wish to get robbed. Inspired. I'm inspired in securing you and encouraging securing me I'm encouraged in producing something for the future. It's, it's beneficial and security is the concept. Matt Zahab Mitchell will crypto hacks ever decrease? Now? I understand this is a tough concern. Due to the fact that even web2 hacks are still obviously all the time he discussed the Immunefi, not Immunefi, Equifax hack, which once again, half a billion users or nevertheless insane it was. This shit grows on trees each and every single day web 2 business get hacked the majority of the time, it's information. And often it's numerous countless dollars. In crypto, it's more cash than anything else. Are we ever visiting the downturn? Or will the hack parade constantly simply be an insane thing? Since of the nature of the decentralized systems in area? Mitchell Amador That's a hard concern that you asked me hard concerns. The response is, it's nuanced. No, the hacks are never ever going to decrease. Number one, however at the exact same time, the hacks will get less destructive? on a portion basis.. What you're gon na see is the rate is going to continue to increase an increasing boost, simply like we see with the history of rip-offs in our area. And we see with hacking and rip-offs in the standard monetary markets, like you do not find out about it. There's 100 times as lots of hacks 600 1000 10,000 times as lots of hacks going on in standard tech and financing that you simply you simply never ever learnt more about. It ends up being a continuous thing which's the instructions where crypto is gon na go. It's simply going to be consistent and never ever ending. Like now we're at the point where hacks are Multiple times a day, that's not going to stop. Which simply features the boost of development in the area. And the boost in the variety of individuals who have the abilities to make use of and you capture that person in a bad day. And he's, he's going to do it. He's bad, he's lost his task. You understand, he got battered by the system, whatever, you understand, he's warranted he feels and making the exploits. That's what it's gon na do. Security in the area is likewise enhancing, right, we're in this never ever ending arms race with human greed and malevolence. Therefore we're likewise improving at securing the area. Every day, a growing number of white hats are registering to us Immunefi finest hackers on the planet are registering to join us in securing tasks. Every day tasks are getting more advanced in their security practices, developing a much better layers of defense, establishing much better bug bounty programs that lead to more eyes on code, and more vulnerabilities avoided from exploitation. Therefore what you're gon na discover is, the hacks are going to continue to take off, fine, and the magnitude of Hacks is likewise going to increase even if that's an analytical phenomenon. on a portion basis, the efficiency of hacks is going to reduce slowly, as security captures up a growing number of. And it's this type of, you understand, we're reducing the damage, we're reducing the dangers, it does not totally get rid of the occasions, they're still going to occur, they're going to get larger, they're going to get even worse, however less of them are occurring typically relative to the quantity of cash at threat.

And you see this with a lot of the hacks now? The larger hacks are a lot rarer. It's normally much smaller sized hacks that are occurring, the basis, that was not how it remained in the early days, where the majority of the occurrences were extremely, large quantities of cash. The trajectory is great.? The trajectory of security in our area is actually enhancing drastically. Day by day. We're definitely doing our part to do that. Yes, the hacks are not going to slow down. And yes, they are going to increase some liberty. Intriguing. We likewise have to be all set for that truth. Matt Zahab Are we visiting what was the most significant hack up until now? What was it wormhole? 350 mil? Mitchell Amador No, no, no, the wormhole case was not it's not even from another location near to the biggest. Matt Zahab What's been the biggest? Mitchell Amador Well appear like you might take a look at the Binance case, which was, you understand, simply today, recently, that was 5 more than 500 mil and BNB. taken from the bridges. Now the aggressor just got away with about6070 That's still you understand, generally totally free mint dilution of the whole base. By about 500 mil. You're the ronin hack, which was nearly $600 million. Yes, yes.. That was a substantial case. Matt Zahab Are we gon na see a 10 figure hack? Mitchell Amador Of course we are. I indicate, it's currently taken place, like the Bitfinex hack years back is equivalently 10 figures, or may be 11 figures today. Matt Zahab I indicate, I suggest, a present day, I imply, on the day, for sure. It's gon na occur. It's gon na take place. Mitchell Amador No doubt. I'm 100%. Specific. I indicate, we for context? We can look at the optimism case, we can look at the polygon case, we can look at some other cases, we understand that aren't public? We have actually currently existed avoiding the 10 figure hack numerous times over, how do you believe we got to the 25 billion number, which is conservative, the genuine number is more around 35 to $40 billion dollars, by the method, at this moment. Like, that's, you understand, that's the are we going to get to a 10 figure hack 40 times over. Alright, consider that. It's not simply a single separated case. There have actually been, I believe, I do not understand if we're up to a lots. You understand, we're not far off. Matt Zahab And you most likely you and the group have actually seen some insane shit that the general public most likely has no hint up. And never ever will. Mitchell Amador Of course, obviously, you understand, the majority of these things. You hear about these amazing cases, like the armor I simply pointed out, or, like the Polygon cases, you hear about them, since the Polygon group is so excellent faith. Therefore vulnerable to public disclosure, and supporting the neighborhood that they're going to share.? What's going on, they have such terrific security practice, generally, that they're going to do that and props to me. Matt Zahab They're not going to provide not gon na provide the real reason. Mitchell Amador Well, they're doing what they're gon na do. And I believe what they that technique of making things transparent is the ideal one, however a great deal of jobs do not, right, or a great deal of scenarios they think about extremely delicate, and those ones never ever make it public. And you can see the quantities of cash walking around, like there's like, it's an excellent reward to be like, Well, alright, well, I can talk or I can keep this personal and their dollars. That's okay. Yeah.. We have heaps and loads of cases, impacting billions and billions of dollars that do not see the light of day due to the fact that everyone concurs for whatever factor is appropriate to them that it's finest to keep it peaceful and we support that, you understand, if the both celebrations desire to keep it personal, that's their company. It's not ours. We enjoy to do our task and securing the neighborhood and we draw ball. Matt Zahab

So, when that scenario occurs, is it like, you understand, Everyone does a virtual handshake, Doc's get signed, and after that NDAs get fired throughout everybody's desk, everybody indications them up, boom, back to sort of that approximate 3rd party, you understand, arbitrator, which's it Case Closed. Mitchell Amador Typically we do not require NDAs or docs. I suggest, I desire you to comprehend a multitude of these white hats divulging are confidential. They're not going to expose their identity. Matt Zahab Like completely, totally non, you understand, no about them. Mitchell Amador Yeah, they wish to do their excellent faith action. They do not desire to get iced. They do not wish to be penalized. Matt Zahab Gotcha. Mitchell Amador Because they did something that they believed was right, which takes place, right, that's occurred a lot in the history of hacking. Which's occurred a lot in the history of bug bounties where you get penalized for doing a kindness. Therefore there's this personal privacy aspect. Therefore some jobs will they might send out over an NDA, and it's like, all right, well, if that remained in the regards to their bug bounty program? Sure, let's do that. That's the best thing to do. That's what you concurred to do. Matt Zahab But if it's not and it does not occur. How did how did these white hatters remain completely non like offer me their methods of interaction? Are they signal plus proton mail? Are they like provider pigeon? Like what's, what do they do? Mitchell Amador It's truly difficult to remain totally unidentified? Since you require such fantastic OpSec that you never ever mistake even when. Okay, which is nigh difficult. That's very challenging to do. That's like composing software application without any bugs. Yeah, incredibly, incredibly difficult to do. There are methods that you can do that. Generally, they're going to have gadgets that are committed to particular performances, and just utilize them for that. They may have something they just utilize for crypto deals that the only usage for bug searching, or they just utilize for interactions, they may be on custom-made operating systems like tails, or heads. Or they may be utilizing cubes to restrict gain access to. Things like VPNs are certainly an offered. They'll utilize other types of masking software application to make it even more hard to pull out details. For example, your web browser is informing, you understand, Apple, or, you understand, we're utilizing Google Chrome, it's sending out Google details back on what kind of hardware you're running? What's the finger print of your maker and an entire lot of qualities. And there's great deals of methods to obstruct that. And to obfuscate that, they're going to generally utilize those, they may likewise restrict access to any socials or facilities that they utilize with this device? Since the minute you log into proton, sure, proton states they aren't tracking anything. Like, they can examine where your IP came from, they can inspect, you understand, attempt and gather more info in your web browser, more details on your hardware if they're smart enough. Therefore you likewise wish to manage how you access all that facilities. A range of procedures like this, in aggregate, integrated with a really, extremely disciplined usage of an extremely little number of tools is how you remain confidential. And like, think about if you actually desire to stand on anyone, like you can't utilize Google Docs. And you can't utilize a lots of applications, your phone, if you utilize an iPhone, it's constantly in lockdown mode, which is you understand, iPhones are not personal at all. You most likely will not even be an iPhone user. You're doing all this things, right to restrict gain access to, making your prospective attack surface area extremely little by utilizing a little number of applications, devoted gadgets, and being very disciplined about how you engage with anything on there. Matt Zahab

So, a minimum of simply from white hat and non user to you and business gets hacked. What's the ways of call? Is it e-mails telegram? Is it signify? What do you people utilize? Mitchell Amador The methods of comms? Well, we utilize our application. The truth is that bug reports are truly complex things to deal with.? It might take us days or weeks to deal with the event. There's a lots of subtlety, you require a great deal of eyes on it. It's not going to be like oh, it comes to us and then we deal with it for them. No, no, it goes to Mike go through our layer of triaging where examining the report, they'll go through an automatic system, and it'll go to the job. The job could be 10 individuals? It might be a single engineer, or it might be an entire engineering and security group. And they require to go back and forth and talk and they might require to speak to us independently. The whole we have an application where all this interaction takes location. Touch and it takes place after the submission of the report that develops essentially the report. And after that from there, we have a huge thread. We're managing all sorts of various kinds of interaction in between the white hat in between the task and after that under different conditions with Immunefi itself. Matt Zahab So all of it occurs. That makes overall sense. Everything occurs within Immunefi walls. Mitchell Amador And we naturally, like this is the most delicate information we comprehend that we are the castle to generate crypto. And so we are continuously browsing our facilities. Manning our walls end to end, locking this down to make it as secured in a safe environment as possible. Matt Zahab No double parenthesis in any Immunefi code. Mitchell Amador Let's simply state that we compose spick-and-span and effective. Matt Zahab Clean, attractive, and effective code. I like it. Mitchell, this has actually been an outright reward male, I've had a lot enjoyable talking with you. And ideally we can do this personally one day, we are getting a little tight for time here. The race, congrats on the race from structure, among the very best VCs in the area. Stroll me through that entire procedure. You understand why you men chose to deal with them? The cash, the entire 9 backyards? What are you gon na make with it? Inform me about the structure endeavor race. Mitchell Amador So that was a hard one? We came to the end of in 2015. And our thesis was simply, you understand, actually starting to remove. Okay? And we're like, Okay, well, what do we do? You understand, next? Well, we require to raise we require we've developed something that's truly remarkable and truly engaging. And it produces a lot worth for the neighborhood. We require more aid. We require more individuals, we require more resources, we require more engineers, like we require a lot more to actually provide on our objective. Let's go out and raise, the very first thing that we did was store that around to all our partners be like, Well, what do you believe? And it's at that point structure, you understand, offered itself, which was amazed they were our seed financiers. And they were extremely encouraging, exceptionally valuable, really hands on item partners, an uncommon thing in our area. And we liked that, however we didn't anticipate them to wish to back us to the next action. They stated, No, no, let's, you understand, let us do it. Let us do it. We began talking back and forth about how it would work. And I indicate, I believe I was truly delighted with essentially whatever and how they performed themselves incredibly high stability, they essentially offered us the pitch for where they were going. And I resembled, alright, yeah, these are the best partners. For us. These are individuals who can assist take Immunefi, to make us the, you understand, the disclosure layer, the 911, layer for vulnerabilities in all of crypto. And they've been that method since. I can count on them to hop on a

call with me and barbecue me about item and get something actually important insights any day of the week. Which is that's, you understand, the very first thing I do not understand, you wish to speak about, you understand, how we're going to utilize the cash or what you wish to do? Matt Zahab Yeah, well, you can enter into it and have some enjoyable here. Mitchell Amador Okay, so we raised $24 million. Which wasn't simply from structure. Structure was the lead, and we're forever glad to them for that, however was likewise a few of our other partners. Essentially, everyone who's invested in us in the past, double, triple, or quadruple down in our last round. That when we people like the plan forest team, that would be electrical capital and other group of remarkable individuals, who would be the quote scale, people, like an entire lot of them. And, you understand, we wished to raise this cash to truly provide on this vision of developing the 911 layer, and the 911 layer of the area needs, you understand, impulse interactions, it needs incredibly reliable levels of purification so that you can recognize what the high concern cases are, right from the start. It needs a very high worth funnel, best and incredibly high worth circulation of attention entering that can develop into high worth bug reports, which you understand, that results in type of our marketing and our neighborhood functions and all the work that we're continuously doing there, to support the security neighborhood and grow it a growing number of and more, we simply do not have sufficient individuals, we've actually do not have adequate individuals in the area right to secure the area. And lastly, and most likely the most essential thing is we're going towards this world where we require more and more trust. The issue with bug bounties is trust. Therefore we're producing all this honestly special innovation these special possessions things that truly have actually never ever been seen prior to in order to facilitate what we feel will end up being a multi billion dollar market for vulnerabilities in the not so long run. Matt Zahab Well stated. Hey, congrats on the race not a doubt in my mind you men are gon na put those down arrows to great to excellent usage. Mitchell outright reward last concern for you hot takes we enjoy hot takes in the Cryptonews pod let's get a check and boots on Step inside the hot take factory What is something that just maybe Mitchell thinks in that most other individuals do not does not need to be crypto associated can be food sports, politics, location, area, celebrities style you call it can be something great? A metric of hot take. Mitchell Amador There's a lot of.
