₿TC Self Custody

Cannot stress enough that you should use a computer exclusively dedicated to #Bitcoin and install #Libreboot open source BIOS on it: I have written a step-by-step guide on my website (below the link). My top laptop recommendation is the Lenovo ThinkPad T480s, but older models like the T430 or X230 also work great! https://btcselfcustody.io/docs/libreboot

Self Custody is a journey, it can take years to fully understand, but it’s absolutely worth it. It gives you peace of mind, a sense of control over your #Bitcoin, and the confidence that comes from knowing how things work. Most importantly, it opens your eyes to what you actually hold! If you’ve already gone down the #Bitcoin rabbit hole, you must embrace self custody!

That's why you cannot stop this #Bitcoin train!

I started a new Follow Pack about #Bitcoin Self Custody. I added you nostr:nprofile1qy08wumn8ghj7mn0wd68yttsw43zuam9d3kx7unyv4ezumn9wshszfnhwden5te0dehhxarj94ex2mrp0yh8q6rfd35hqcmjd9ehg6tpdehjucm0d5hsqg866e2qere062sk5fwsmqkajhfm44ufp4p4695ssj9q5a7j3qaygunq2hud, I hope you don't mind as you are my legend in the self custody landscape! https://following.space/d/99pkinbsmtpv

Rant: #ETH, the king of shitcoins.. No wait, FIAT money is the real shitcoin!

Oops, soon the exchanges will be emptied.. and #Bitcoin Self Custody and #Price are going to explode!

I never bought #Bitcoin, Bitcoin bought me!

Do you use an #Airgapped computer for managing your #seed phrases and #PSBT? I hope you do! Here the steps: - Get a old Lenovo Thinkpad X230 - Remove both the WiFi card and Bluetooth module - Make the Ethernet port unusable (by damaging it) - Encrypt the Hard Drive with a strong password - Install Sparrow, Electrum or any similar Wallet - Enjoy! If your Airgapped computer gets stolen, it cannot be accessed as the hard drive is encrypted. Your #bitcoin are safe! Airgapped Computer > Hardware wallet #selfcustody

Remember why you are on #Nostr

Now many things feel so obvious, but guys, never forget how long we have been into this journey for, how many hours of study we have put into this, how many months or even years took to digest some concepts, both at the intellectual and energetic level. Remember to be kind and to use analogies when explaining #Bitcoin to newbies. We have a big responsibility. Let's put our best skills for the revolution! And don't forget to self custody!!! #btcselfcustody

The first time #bitcoin showed up in my life was long time ago. The day I realised the opportunity I missed out in that early stage still hurts. But as we all know, it is never too late!

Happy Easter to all the #Nostr community!
