In the bitcoin bubble that we're all in, it's easy to think that bitcoin self custody is easy. But for the vast majority of people, it's a real stretch. There's the new concepts and new tech, AND the fact that making a mistake can have serious consequences in terms of losing money.
Yet it's not at all inherently too difficult. It just needs to be learned step-by-step, like you learned how to use a bank account, credit card, how to invest in the stock market, etc.
That's why I wrote the book Bitcoin, Hands-On: 28 “learn-by-doing” exercises to master the basics of managing your own Bitcoin, including wallets, transactions, and self custody.
And making wallet software easier and more intuitive is great. However one of the main concepts that needs to be understood in bitcoin is that you are NOT chained to your wallet software. You have your private key, you can use it wherever you want.
