Bitcoin Well Answers: 3 - What is Self-Custody?

Understanding the importance of custody is the difference between having a number on a screen and owning the greatest asset on the planet. If you don’t understand custody, you don't really understand Bitcoin.

In this video, we break down why custody (the simple question of who controls the asset) is the single most revolutionary change Bitcoin brought to the world of finance.

In traditional finance, we are disincentivized from taking delivery of assets like gold or oil because the security is too difficult to manage. Bitcoin completely flips this script by building institutional-grade security directly into the protocol, allowing you to take delivery for free.

Stop settling for "captured" Bitcoin in Coinbase or ETFs. Learn how to identify if you have true custody (hint: it's all about those 12-24 words) and why Bitcoin Well is designed to ensure you never have to ask permission to access your wealth again.
