🗝️ IN CRYPTO, ACCESS AND OWNERSHIP ARE DEEPLY CONNECTED.
Digital asset custody is about how crypto assets and the credentials needed to control them are safeguarded.
Two common approaches are:
🔐 Self-custody: You control the private keys or recovery mechanisms, which also means you carry greater responsibility for protecting access.
🏦 Third-party custody: A service provider safeguards assets or keys on your behalf, introducing trust in that provider and its security arrangements.
Neither approach removes every risk.
Self-custody requires careful key management, while third-party custody involves provider, operational, and access risks.
Understanding who controls the keys—and what happens if access is lost—is essential.
💬 Which would you prefer to learn more about: self-custody or third-party custody? Why?
