Real privacy on mobile doesn't always require a complete digital hermit life. It requires smart isolation. I recently integrated the Shelter app into my workflow to cage the Google Play Store directly within my main profile.
This setup allows me to keep those few essential "Big Brother" apps—where I rely on real-time notifications—isolated in a separate data space without the friction of switching user profiles. A pragmatic balance between sovereignty and usability.
I deleted X (Twitter). I use GrapheneOS and Linux, White Noise instead of WhatsApp, and books instead of mainstream media. My life is getting better and better. Freedom tech instead of slave tech. Freedom money instead of fiat. 👽🌌
Open source means open scrutiny. Thanks to sharp feedback from the community, the Liana Wallet Read has been updated with critical distinctions on:
Handling stateless signing devices (SeedSigner) in inheritance setups.
Operational rules for UTXO-based timelock management.
The protocol is now tighter. Verification works.
I flashed my third GrapheneOS device yesterday.
There is no substitute for doing the work yourself. Practical execution exposes details that theory misses. I noticed a few friction points in my own documentation that needed smoothing, so I updated the guide immediately.
The revised protocol now reflects the exact reality of the process including manual bootloader entry and specific browser troubleshooting.
Refine your tools.
Network density increased.
To the first 100 followers: Thank you. This place is rare. Honest arguments, technical depth, and a culture of building instead of complaining.
Let’s keep the signal high.👽 🛸
If you do not hold the private keys, you do not own the asset; you own a liability. Moving to cold storage is the only way to exit the fiat trust model. Do not let technical hurdles on Linux, Android, or iOS stop you.

Note 1: Hashrate dropping in 2026 is not a signal of death. It is a signal of maturity. Miners are arbitrageurs of energy. When they switch to AI compute, they follow the market, not a religion. Bitcoin survives because it is tied to physics, not sentiment.👇
f your security setup is impenetrable to thieves, it is likely impenetrable to your family too. The paradox of self-custody is that "Not your keys, not your coins" often turns into "Lost keys, lost coins" when mortality strikes.
We can fix this without lawyers. We build a programmable Dead Man's Switch directly on the blockchain using Liana and Miniscript.
