The “just make it easy” cope has to DIE.
If someone else can move your #bitcoin, you don’t own bitcoin.
You own an IOU and a prayer.
Seed phrase on a $69 metal plate sold by an influencer?
Multisig where one key is held by a company that will rug when SHTF?
“Institutional collaborative custody” (lmao)?
All coping mechanisms for people too scared to take 30 minutes to learn how to actually own their money.
Not your keys = not your coins.
True in 2009.
Still true in 2025.
Will still be true in 2050.
Be sovereign or stay poor.
There are no shortcuts.
Only future rug pulls.
Cold storage. Your node. Your rules.
It’s not hard. It’s just unfamiliar.
Fix it before the next exchange “loses” your coins and sends you a sorry-not-sorry email.
Not financial advice.
Just the truth maxis were screaming in 2017 that you laughed at.
Who’s laughing now?
