Avoid one Tyrant chain five thousand miles away

 Better to rub shoulders with 500 tyrant chains, one mile away

Patrick W. Henry


Following the recent Coldcard incident, Nick Neuman, CEO of nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvqyw8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnzd96xxmmfdejhytnnda3kjctvqqsvwcwuwcwmucx3s7dfs54m49h7uclw4vxh8ygu25m9chk0ypy5ngswlqxkm explains how Bitcoiners can build a more resilient self-custody setup by eliminating single points of failure:

"I think that there's still a lot of potential for self-custody for the future of humanity."

"People really need to shift their mindset when they are self-custodying their assets. You need to figure out a setup where multiple different providers, companies, security experts, are acting as a check on each other. And if one of them fails, your whole setup doesn't fail."
