    Andreas Antonopoulos answers a question about how to secure your Bitcoin. He covers holding your own keys, backing up the 12 to 24 word seed phrase, and the tradeoffs of custodial accounts, phone wallets and hardware wallets.

    HN recommends it as a clear explanation of self-custody and of why to move coins off exchanges.

      Please make sure you take your coins off of Coinbase (or any other exchange) as soon as you can. Here's a talk by the venerable Andreas Antonopoulos on this subject: this video

    3. @gstSep 2017· in “Announcing Ethereum and Litecoin vaults”

      Didn't have a multisig BTC wallet before (created one in the past, but deleted it months ago) and I don't seem to be able to add another multisig wallet - only those multi-email-confirmation-required wallets. Not holding the keys for my own coins is not an option (see this video for why), but at least there are alternatives such as Ledger hardware wallets.
