I looked very closely at a Bitcoin leveraged, trading bot, Bitcoin futures play

After months of slowly examining options

I’ve decided not to proceed

- liquidation risk

- execution risk

- counter-party risk

To beat the self-custody of Bitcoin risk-reward is just so tough

My feeling is anyone that actually opts for a strategy like that, doesn’t truly get Bitcoin, and has no idea the risk they’re putting their assets under

Spot on. Your observation that 'to beat the self-custody of Bitcoin risk-reward is just so tough' is the perfect summary. Leveraging a custody-free asset in a counterparty-reliant system is a contradiction. You're giving up the philosophical high ground (and safety) for a yield that rarely justifies the triple risk exposure (liquidation, execution, counterparty). Smart move walking away. 👏
