Its time now, ignore the Samourai situation at your own peril.

What peril if you run your own node and take proper precautions?
This Samoural scandal proved that 99% of Bitcoiners are doing things the wrong way.
Trusted third parties are security holes!
People are really surprised that a proprietary hot wallet compromised their xpubs?
I guess its Karma for the characters....
99% of Bitcoiners are doing things the wrong way?! Please explain?
using hot wallets and/or custodial for their main savings and not connecting to their own node over tor or at all.
how did you gather that 99% of us are operating in this manner from the Samourai scandal?
I did not gather it from samourai scandal, I already knew it.
The samourai scandal and resulting panic simply confirmed it.
okay, how did it confirm what you already knew?
i observed the panic from the news which added to/sustained the statistic.
