TD₿: Hardware Tutorial Videos by BTC Sessions
TL;DR These are go-to videos if you're learning about how to take self-custody with popular hardware wallets.
Hey Bitcoiners,
As many Bitcoiners will tell you, there are many steps that a beginner must take when starting out on their Bitcoin journey.
The first step is finding the Bitcoin rabbit hole and having the curiosity to explore it. After learning about Bitcoin and the problems it solves, it’s then time for them to buy their first sats.
The next logical step after stacking sats is for them to learn how to take self-custody so that they can save in bitcoin while preserving their sovereignty. Only after taking self-custody can one honestly say that they own bitcoin, that no one can take it from them, and that no one can stop them from transacting with it.
The ability to take self-custody is what gives Bitcoin the power to be freedom money.
However, this can be an intimidating step for some beginners to take who may not be familiar with the technology, devices, or jargon of Bitcoin. Given that one can lose their bitcoin if they don’t take custody of their sats properly, some are scared away from performing this critical step.
In reality, taking self-custody is a new experience for many, but it is not challenging. Sometimes it just takes some good educational resources to get a newcomer to feel confident enough to take the self-custody plunge.
That’s why hardware tutorial videos like these from BTC Sessions are so important to share: 1.) Coldcard, 2.) Trezor 3.) Ledger.
Once a beginner has watched some tutorial videos like these, they will often find that taking self-custody with a hardware wallet is a pretty trivial exercise.
In 2022, we’ve witnessed centralized crypto exchanges and lenders blow up left and right, and user funds became lost or inaccessible in the process. Many individuals had to learn the hard way why taking self-custody is so important.
Don’t become another victim of a crypto casino. Watch these tutorials, get a hardware wallet, and take self-custody of your bitcoin today.
