I totally agree and personally I'm more of a key guy than a phrase guy so I made this video not long ago for plebs who don't pleb right.

Yes π and if losing even a small amount will financially destroy someone then they have other things to worry about first anyway π

I think most people will have more value held in a single piece of dirty paper that some stranger foisted upon them, then their zapping wallet.

No other financial medium can get close to matching it in that area.
Big financial transactions sometimes want underwriting. We are some way from that yet in Bitcoin.
Probably the most secure way to make large Bitcoin transactions is to atomise and use something TCP-esq to confirm receipt of packets and to continue streaming.
