With great power comes great responsibility. Because you have total control over your money, you also have total bitcoin responsibility.
There is no “Forgot Password” button in Bitcoin.
There is no customer service hotline to call if you get hacked.
There is no fraud department to reverse a transaction if you send it to the wrong person.
If you lose your private keys, your money is gone forever. Millions of Bitcoin have been lost this way.
This scares new users, but it forces you to grow up financially.
You have to take security seriously. You have to learn how to store a seed phrase safely (offline, on paper or metal).
The banking system treats you like a child who needs permission to spend. Bitcoin treats you like an adult who is capable of handling bitcoin responsibility.
It is harder, yes. But the reward is true independence.
