🎙️ Tradition Meets Tech | Anna Redmond and the Future of Challenge Coins

This episode of Sirens, Slammers and Service brings something completely different—in the best way. Meet Anna Redmond, a civilian mom turned powerhouse in the security world, who went from venture capital and Harvard to building something first responders didn’t even know they needed… until now. 🚀

Anna shares her bold transition into security, driven by a sharp understanding of real-world risk—and how that led to the creation of Braav. But here’s where it gets exciting: Braav has developed the first platform to digitize challenge coins on the blockchain—giving those meaningful coins carried by law enforcement, corrections, and fire a permanent, secure digital twin that preserves both the coin and the story behind it.

We dive into how users can upload their coins, share their experiences, and become part of a growing community—with future plans for trading, fundraising, and building the go-to hub for first responders and veterans alike.

If challenge coins mean something to you (and we know they do), you’ll want to check this out. Head to Braav and see it for yourself.
