I Almost Lost ALL My Bitcoin (Here's What Saved Me)
I almost lost all of my Bitcoin. Earlier this year a bug was discovered in the Coldcard hardware wallet that caused the private keys it generated to be far less random than they should have been, and people who did everything right woke up to a Bitcoin balance of zero. In this video I break down the one decision that saved my Bitcoin, and I sit down with Tony from The Bitcoin Way, who has audited thousands of Bitcoin self custody setups, to answer the questions every Bitcoin holder needs answered right now: what is the number one way people lose their Bitcoin, is it safer to leave your Bitcoin on an exchange like Coinbase or in a Bitcoin ETF, is self custody still worth it after the Coldcard bug, and how to hold Bitcoin in cold storage for decades without one mistake wiping out your life savings.Want to stack Bitcoin at below-market cost while slashing your tax bill?
