The Illusion of Ownership:
When people say, “My crypto is on Binance or on bybit,” I always cringe a little.
That’s like saying, “My money is in someone else’s pocket.”
Custodial wallets!.. the ones that hold your keys for you... it feel safe because they remove friction.
No phrases to memorize. No keys to lose.
But safety without sovereignty is just a digital leash.
You can wake up one day, and you find out your money are all frozen based on useless excuses.
...
The beauty of blockchain was supposed to be freedom, self-custody, transparency, independence.
But most people traded that for convenience.
They handed their keys to corporations and called it innovation.
...
And that's exactly why it's not just enough to know what a wallet is, its important to understand it.
