Is it though? People with a fidelity account can just move whatever percentage of their portfolio to bitcoin ETFs. No new exchange accounts, no learning about self custody. I'm not arguing for ETFs, they're stupid, but honestly they are much easier for a lot of people.

If you buy with KYC and never spend your Bitcoin, are you really any different from someone buying the ETF? You certainly don't have freedom money. #DontRiskItBisqIt

It is better if you self custody. At least you avoid counterparty

Grandpa, that isn't "freedom money". You get arrested because everyone can see where you use it. 99% normal people don't care about a bisq, and they would still go after the donation recipients anyway. Monero fixes that.

Only for techies or btc nerds. The rest of the people have no idea what they’re doing.. and most too lazy to learn

Why do you have to spend it?

I guess they will have to learn the hard way?

Tens of Millions of people buy stocks on their own on Robinhood. You can buy Bitcoin on Robinhood in the same way. Or coinbase, or Gemini. This isn't 2013.
