⚖️ Understanding Bitcoin Risk

Risk isn't binary—it's a spectrum. Every Bitcoin custody solution involves trade-offs. Self-custody gives you control but creates single points of failure. Exchanges offer convenience but introduce counterparty risk. Multisig provides redundancy but adds complexity. The question isn't "What's perfect?" but "What's the best set of trade-offs for your situation?"

⚠️ The 3 Biggest Risks to Your Bitcoin

Based on real-world experience, the three most common ways people lose Bitcoin are:

🤦‍♂️
You making a mess of your custody

Technical mistakes, lost keys, forgotten passwords, failed backups

💔
The person who sleeps next to you (divorce)

Relationship breakdowns, asset disputes, custody battles

🔨
Your neighbour (wrench attack)

Physical coercion, extortion, "give me your Bitcoin or else"

🔐 Understanding Anti-Collusion Security

Collaborative security approaches use 2FA-protected accounts where only you can initiate Bitcoin transactions. This means that even in a collaborative custody setup, other parties cannot collude to steal your funds—they can only assist in recovery scenarios when needed. You maintain complete control of transaction initiation.

How We Prevent Collusion:

  • Trustless Setup: You create your own account, username, password, and 2FA
  • Client-Only Access: Only you can access your account and initiate transactions
  • Notification System: You receive alerts for every step of the process
  • Multiple Providers: Diversified technology providers prevent uniform attack vectors
  • Regular Audits: Strict conditions and regular audits on all key usage
