At first I assumed the hard part of a Babylon Trustless Bitcoin Vault was the setup. Lock the Bitcoin, sign the transactions, confirm the deposit. After that the system handles itself. The actual ongoing responsibility is quieter and less advertised. When you create the vault you must download and store two things. The claimer artifacts. The WOTS keypair. These files are not a backup. They are the self-claim path. Lose them and that path closes. If the Vault Provider is also unavailable at that moment, the only remaining option is the transitional Security Council, a 3-of-5 human group that exists precisely for recoveries the protocol cannot handle alone. The design does not hide this. It states it clearly. What it cannot control is whether you still have those files three years from now when you actually need them. Most people who downloaded them will not remember where. Some will not remember that they did. The protocol is genuinely trustless for the person who treats those files the way they treat their seed phrase. For everyone else the trust never fully left. It just moved somewhere quieter. What does self-custody actually mean when the last line of defense is a folder most people forgot they ever saved?
