Solving self-custody
The features that make Bitcoin valuable are all derived from the fact that users can hold and transfer Bitcoin with self-custody. But it comes with tradeoffs which often lead users to adopt custodial solutions. Bull Bitcoin aims to solve these user experience tradeoffs by developing smart app-layer solutions to reduce the frictions of self-custody.

Debate
Cypherpunks vs. Institutions: Who Owns Bitcoin’s Future?
The year 2025 marks a shift in the global Bitcoin sentiment. We may be crossing the chasm—from late adopters to early majority, and more critically, into the hands of institutions, sovereign wealth funds, and nation-states. ETFs, regulatory frameworks, and elite capital are reshaping the narrative.
But is this Bitcoin’s natural evolution—or a threat to its cypherpunk roots?
This debate gives voice to both sides of the aisle. The cypherpunk camp will defend the core values of privacy, censorship resistance, and grassroots scaling. Meanwhile, institutional advocates will argue that integration with the traditional financial system is inevitable—and even necessary for global adoption.
Who’s right? Will Bitcoin stay a tool for sovereign individuals, or become another layer of the legacy system? In 30 years, will we have real no-KYC self-custody—or will Bitcoin be ruled from within TradFi?
