We Need THIS Number to Go Up! | Miss Bitcoin

Show Notes

Become a Client: https://www.thebitcoinway.com/podcast Nearly half of all Bitcoin—about 49%—is currently held in self-custody. That’s a milestone worth celebrating. With all the attention on ETFs, treasury companies, and custodial platforms, it’s easy to forget the bigger story: most Bitcoin is still held by individuals—sovereign people stacking sats and taking responsibility for their money. But the headline number doesn’t tell the whole story. Many solutions labeled “self-custody” today rely on collaborative custody, KYC, proprietary apps, and third-party key holders. These setups introduce serious tradeoffs: loss of privacy, reliance on customer support, exposure to data breaches, app downtime, and vulnerability to government or corporate interference. True self-custody means: No KYC No third-party keys No proprietary apps you depend on No one knowing how much Bitcoin you have or when you move it It means verifying your own transactions, holding your own keys, and building redundancy on your terms—using open-source tools designed for sovereignty, not convenience. In this video, Miss Bitcoin breaks down why many Bitcoiners could dramatically improve their self-custody setup—and why learning a few new skills today can eliminate counterparty risk forever. If you already have the technical skills, now is the time to use them. If you don’t—that’s exactly what The Bitcoin Way exists for. We don’t KYC you. We don’t hold your keys. And we don’t need to know how much Bitcoin you have. Our goal at The Bitcoin Way is simple: help more people move from partial custody to true sovereignty. Let’s turn 49% into 60%. Then 70%. And help as many people as possible live up to Bitcoin’s promise—to be your own bank. 🎙ABOUT OUR SHOW: Our Miss Bitcoin segment includes brief monologues by Alejandra Guajaro, former Miss El Salvador and member of The Bitcoin Way team as she shares the ways that she uses Bitcoin and freedom tech around the world. 📞 SCHEDULE A CALL WITH THE BITCOIN WAY:https://cal.com/team/thebitcoinway/podcast 🔗CONNECT WITH US: X: https://twitter.com/thebitcoinway_ N: npub1lrj3lsskez59qu68v5fpnur7ythe7s5e4qcelclha6t6r9q5pqgsl2mzx2 LI: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thebitcoinway/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/thebitcoinway_ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thebitcoinway 🗞️: https://www.thebitcoinway.com/resources/newsletter ❗DISCLAIMER: This show is for entertainment purposes only.
