Whether you're securing your own keys or protecting a multi-million-dollar treasury, Bitcoin security is not optional—it’s mission-critical.

This panel dives into real-world strategies for safeguarding Bitcoin across different threat models and scales:

Best practices for individuals and families

Cold storage, hardware wallets, multisig, and air-gapped setups

How companies are building operational security without compromising usability

Threats from phishing, social engineering, and supply chain attacks

The future of custody tech and privacy-preserving solutions

From personal sovereignty to institutional-grade defenses, you’ll walk away with actionable insights to level up your security—no matter where you are in your Bitcoin journey.

When you buy Bitcoin, do you really own it? Not if someone else holds your keys.

This panel is designed for newcomers who want to understand why self-custody—holding your own Bitcoin—is the safest and most empowering way to use it. We’ll break it down in plain language:

What self-custody means and how it works

The difference between wallets, exchanges, and hardware devices

How to get started without being a tech expert

Why “not your keys, not your coins” still matters—especially now

If you're new to Bitcoin and want to protect what you've worked hard to earn, this is the session that will show you how to take full control—safely and confidently.
