What is self-custody?

Bitcoin was designed for self-custody — holding your own private keys instead of entrusting them to a third-party custodian.

When you keep bitcoin on an exchange, they are your custodian. The exchange holds your keys, deciding how and when you can access your bitcoin.

Why let someone else control your bitcoin?
Self-custody is freedom. Think about it.

Why self-custody bitcoin matters

When you hold bitcoin on an exchange, you give up control and inherit these risks.

Account freezes: your bitcoin can be locked without warning

Exchange hacks: $3.8 billion lost in 2022 alone

Rehypothecation: exchanges lend out your bitcoin to make money

Bankruptcy: business fails, your bitcoin disappears into legal limbo

There's a better way — one where you actually own your bitcoin.
