You likely need this only because we are too early and there are not so many interesting things around to pay with bitcoins so the friction doesn't worth spending time, buying and getting bitcoins non-custodially for non-trivial amount.
There are stories from big European funds when people want to get out of custody their exchange-traded regulated bitcoins. So I think life is richer than experience of most of the people here.
Agree. There's a wide range of custodians (size of custodian, amount of funds, period of fund holding), so different treatment applies. Stacker News is not the same kind of custodian as a bank
