Want to master self-custody in just 90 seconds? Here's your quick breakdown.

Self-custody means you hold your own private keys—essentially, you are your own bank. No intermediaries, no exchange holding your assets, no counterparty risk. It's the foundation of true ownership in crypto.

Why it matters: When you leave funds on a centralized exchange, you're trusting them with your keys. With self-custody, that responsibility—and that control—sits entirely with you. This is what decentralization actually means.
