“Is self-custody dead?”
No.
It’s about to become 10x stronger.
Self-custody was created for anyone.
But it was never going to be practiced by everyone.
Anyone can take responsibility for their own money.
Most will choose convenience instead.
Because sovereignty demands something convenience doesn’t:
Knowledge.
Discipline.
Responsibility.
The tools are available to everyone.
Most won’t master them.
The few who do will build the next generation of self-custody.
Stronger. Smarter. Harder to break.
That’s not the death of self-custody.
That’s its evolution.
