We all recall last year's disaster and its grim consequences for users
The upside of all this is that many have turned their attention to the fundamentals :
> โNot your Keys, โnot your coins
But haven't we left a lot behind?โฌ๏ธ

If you're studying bitcoin, you already know how essential it is to hold the keys to your own wallet
Some learn this the hard way, but in the end, the only way to be certain of the integrity of your funds is :
> โDon't trust, โ
verify
If you hold your funds all by yourself, you won't be exposed the counterparty risk, inherent to the trust that you have to place in custodial platforms
Fine, but what happens to those who don't want to use Bitcoin only as a means of saving, as a vault ?

And there's nothing you can do about it. Unless...
Should we ignore this practice and this user base ? Trading and arbitrage are useful and necessary in a free market.
#Bitcoin is for enemies.
Are we just going to tell them "have fun staying poor" and do nothing to address their needs, and leave them with no other options but custodial platforms?
โNO

Once again, one could always choose to ignore the problem. But we prefer different approach :
Many people around the world are already facing extreme monetary instabilities, and are legitimately concerned by Bitcoin's ups and downs.
For many Westerners, this may seem insignificant, as the banking and financial system is (still) more or less functional.
Nevertheless, could you imagine having to rely on Bitcoin for your family's everyday spending budget?
Or having to manage your treasury when you're a small business with customers and suppliers operating in (or indexed to) fiat currency?
> Bad money drives out good
And that's why from LATAM to Lebanon, from Asia to Africa, many opt for custodial solutions and platforms, or even worse, #StableCoin ON centralized platforms, multiplying the layers of risk.
Are we just going to tell them "have fun staying poor" and do nothing to address their needs, and leave them with no other options but USDT over TRON?
โNO
๐ก This is exactly why we propose an alternative to trust-based "fiat stability" offerings
