Stefan Smith portrait
Background

Background and Approach

After two decades in corporate fiat, he is now a "terminal bitcoiner", dedicating his life to Bitcoin and Bitcoiners through collaborative security and also with the Bitfluencers, THE Bitcoin Marketing Team, a group of bitcoin maxis capped at 21 members that provide Signal Over Noise and visibility on social media to Bitcoin only companies.

Stefan works with clients in the language they are most comfortable in, without assuming prior technical depth. The goal is practical resilience: keys you control, plans your family can follow, and structures that still make sense years from now.

He believes long-run Bitcoin security should be:

Inclusive

Spouses, heirs, and trusted contacts understand enough to support the plan—not left guessing after a crisis.

Collaborative

Multisig and shared responsibility reduce single points of failure without handing control to one counterparty.

Clear

Documentation and roles are explicit so recovery and inheritance do not depend on memory alone.

Book time

Schedule With Stefan

Book a discovery session to review your setup, discuss collaborative security, or plan how your loved ones would recover bitcoin if something happened to you.

Services

What Stefan Helps With

Stefan supports European clients across experience levels—from first serious self-custody moves to refining an existing vault and inheritance story.

Collaborative custody

Designing and stress-testing multisignature setups so day-to-day use and recovery paths are realistic for you and your family.

Continuity & inheritance

Aligning technical custody with who should inherit, when they should get access, and how they will prove it—without premature exposure.

Education at your pace

Explaining trade-offs in plain language in French, English, Italian, Spanish, or German so everyone who needs to understand the plan actually does.

Second opinions

Reviewing existing arrangements for hidden fragility—human, operational, or technical—before they become emergencies.

Stefan does not provide investment advice or price commentary. His focus is helping you keep and pass on what you already own.

Fit

Who He Typically Works With

European households

Families and individuals in Europe who want long-horizon security and clear communication across generations.

Multilingual needs

Clients who prefer to work in french, english, italian, spanish, or german—or a mix—without losing precision on custody details.

From fiat careers to bitcoin

People who spent years in traditional finance and now want the same rigour applied to bearer-asset custody and continuity.

Bitcoin-only operators

Founders and teams who care about signal over noise and want advisory aligned with Bitcoin-only values and collaborative security.

Philosophy

Advisory Philosophy

Long-run bitcoin security is collaborative, documented, and built for the people you love—not a solo hero story.

Effective plans should:

Respect expertise gaps

Meet you where you are and close gaps without jargon or rush.

Reduce single points of failure

Technology and people both fail; design assumes that from the start.

Stay Bitcoin-native

No detours into altcoins or yield products—security and continuity for bitcoin holdings.

Age well

What works this year should still be intelligible and recoverable a decade or more from now.
