SHOP PACKAGESBitcoin Self-custody
By using your own Bitcoin wallet instead of leaving the bitcoin on an exchange, you can have full and exclusive control over your money. This is called Bitcoin self-custody.
If you leave your bitcoins on an exchange or other custodial services (like Shakepay or Coinbase) you don’t actually own Bitcoin all you have is a legal claim to bitcoin. Not your keys? Not your coins.
Custodial services can restrict access to your money, freeze or seize your funds, they keep your transaction data, they are targets for hackers, and honey pots for hostile government agencies. Using custodial services defeats the entire purpose of Bitcoin.
Install Your Own Bitcoin Wallet
Your Bitcoin journey begins with downloading a mobile or desktop application called a Bitcoin wallet. It only takes a few minutes, it’s free, it’s fun, it’s secure and it’s easy.
Your Bitcoin wallet will be your gateway to the Bitcoin network...
Nobody else has access to your money, not even the programmers and corporations that created the Bitcoin wallets.
Secure your wallet
There are two major risks to Bitcoin self-custody
- Accidentally losing or breaking the mobile, laptop or hardware device on which you keep your Bitcoin Wallet.
- Getting robbed physically by a thief, or remotely by a hacker.
To recover your Bitcoin, if you lose access to your wallet, you must create a physical backup (on paper or metal) and keep it in a safe place.
To protect your Bitcoin Wallet and the Backup from thieves, you must add a secret passphrase. Nobody will be able to access your money without the passphrase, so don’t forget it!
For additional security you can purchase a specialized device (a “hardware wallet”) but this is not required.
Receive and Send Payments
Bitcoin is not just a way to protect the value of your savings over time, it’s also the best payment network the world has ever seen.
To receive payments, your Bitcoin Wallet will generate and display Bitcoin addresses that you can share publicly or privately with anybody that wants to send you money.
To send payments, all you need to do is enter the Bitcoin address (or scan QR code) of the recipient. No additional documentation or permission required. The transaction cannot be stopped or reversed. Unlike custodial services, your Bitcoin wallet protects your identity and you can make anonymous payments.
