“self custody” as a phrase doesn’t even register for normal people. Need to rework this whole education model to make it more accessible.

I actually would love to do the same. Maybe I can learn from you and duplicate.

It sounds absolutely batshit crazy if you are completely uninitiated.

Self-custodial is a nonsense word that needs to yeeted into the sun. It's Custodial, and non-custodial. If it's custodial, someone other than you maintains custody of the coins. If it's non-custodial, nobody else has custody of the coins. Self-custodial is a confusing misnomer. Let's keep it simple, and accurate.

Sovereign care

Self guardianship

Own possession

Individual safekeeping

I call it „actual ownership“ and explain private keys as a share in the network.

Still not optimal but works better for me

Shane- I'm watching a Saylor presentation (from 13 years ago) and he is talking about how the electro-mechanical physical terms used to apply, but no longer do. (Physical Books and magazines and physical keys, etc etc in 2011).

And so I thought this might help inspire your thinking of the new terminolgy we need to start using.
