#19: Responsibility & Self Custody

The second episode of Season 3 focuses on responsibility and self-custody, a timely and important topic for the following groups:

• Those considering buying bitcoin but intimidated by the process
• Those who have bought bitcoin but are storing it on an exchange
• Those who have bought bitcoin and moved it into a single signature wallet, but considering greater levels of security
• Those who own and self-custody bitcoin and are working to help others along this process

With great freedom comes great responsibility. The benefit of holding an asset that is a bearer instrument is that you do not have to depend on anyone else to access it or use it. The downside is that you bear the responsibility of protecting it. As always, the key is education, and we hope to provide some perspective today through a fun and engaging discussion.
