Bitcoiners,

It’s at the point now that we all need to consider the following:

#1 self-custodial spending wallet with both sats & BTC like nostr:npub1ajlrwgfj4yerhqf7ady03h7wmtk2qr3gs7h3sxcx83k05yld36sswpzx3q nostr:nprofile1qqstu8vf099ljt09m4jvres0dgk8ps2q4wkfjvjp3lhrp3wxxllfg7gpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3uamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dxqejuer0wfskvctrw3hhy7fwdaexw6keyzs or nostr:nprofile1qqsr70lh4keezkwy9s92zm2ncpyrh7l6647ly257n6fkfgcxws0t9ncpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet5qyd8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytn0wfskuem9wp5kcmpwv3jhve6fres (even better with in-app atomic swaps to LiquidBTC & USDT).

#2 small travel wallet like @Tangem - a common form factor (card) that isn’t noticeable or trigger questions from

Immigration officials (unlike common dedicated mainstream hardware wallets). Low key OPsec but still protected.

#3 known KYC hardware wallet that all exchange purchases, sales & activities which are subject to capital gains tax & reporting. (address declared & known to authorities)

#4 completely segregated non-KYC wallet that never has sats or on-chain BTC mixed from your other wallets. This is a mining hardware wallet, a peer-to-peer bitcoin receiving wallet. You should enforce plausible deniability on it. Have a decoy number of transactions & balance without a passphrase - just seed. Under duress people can access the limited (sub 0.1 worth of bitcoin). On the same hardware wallet & seed phrase a hidden passphrase wallet with your bag

Just stuff I’m thinking about. As the value of Bitcoin climes & tax authorities coming knocking, you don’t want to mix KYC & non-KYC sats IMO.

What do you think?
