Hey, inveterate bitcoin ideologists! Give me, a theoretical noob, one good practical, material reason to self-custody. How does it improve my life? Does it reduce time or effort? Does it pay me yield?
Look at what happens when an exchange fails. Celsius creditors have recovered about 64.9% of their claims so far, and FTX paying back roughly 119% of petition-date claims is the exception, not the rule. That gap is your material reason.
