I'm back to square one on my bitcoin self-custody solution search.

I watched Coldcard "how to" videos, but I'm still scared I'm going to screw that up somewhere. Like, really scared.

I promise, I can follow directions (I write them for a living), but often the directions I'm looking at do not match the current workflow exactly and my intuitive choices in those moments can mess up a process.

This is not something I want to chance.

I opted for a Bitkey because I could buy it and have it transferred there in one step, *not two*. When it arrived today, I couldn't set up the app. Turns out my up-to-date phone does not support NFC. 😔 (It's less than a year old, I never use the NFC function on the phone, and I thought it just came "standard" like an option in a car, so I didn't think about it.)

How do you buy bitcoin and have it go directly into a cold-storage wallet in one transaction?

Ideally, that's the setup I'm looking for.
