By 2020 I was convinced that we’d arrived and putting some bitcoin on Voyager to earn interest was safe. I read a piece by nostr:npub17u5dneh8qjp43ecfxr6u5e9sjamsmxyuekrg2nlxrrk6nj9rsyrqywt4tp that convinced me I was wrong so I pulled my bitcoin back to cold storage and after seeing how easy it was I went and got it all off exchanges. Voyager collapsed a few weeks later. I ran into nostr:npub17u5dneh8qjp43ecfxr6u5e9sjamsmxyuekrg2nlxrrk6nj9rsyrqywt4tp In El Salvador and got to thank him in person. Saved me about a half million in today’s prices.

Bull markets make us dumb and the side effect is exchanges blow up and plebs get ruined. Self-custody is easier than ever. If you don’t self-custody, please start. If you do, find someone who doesn’t and teach them.
