About this episode
Robert Rhodin, CEO of KeychainX AG, joins Dustin Plantholt on Bitcoin.com Interviews to discuss how biometric technology and Bitcoin’s security principles are converging to create the next generation of keyless crypto wallets — protecting users’ identities and digital assets in an era of AI threats and deep fakes.
Founded in Switzerland, KeychainX has been helping users recover lost Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies since 2017. Now, the company is pioneering a patent-pending keyless crypto wallet that replaces traditional private keys with biometric authentication methods, such as fingerprints and even DNA data, ensuring that access to digital assets remains secure, verifiable, and uniquely human.
Robert shares how this innovation addresses one of the biggest vulnerabilities in crypto — private key management — while preserving Bitcoin’s self-custody ethos and resisting the risks of identity theft and AI impersonation.
