Today we launched the Bitcoin Security Stress Test.
Pick a custody setup, throw incidents at it, and see what survives.
Here's what happens when your custodian gets hacked, and how it compares with other custody approaches.

"I think what happens is: if the distribution mechanisms that we use to broadcast intellectual property become decentralized and peer-to-peer and pay-to-play, intellectual property itself dies. And that sounds terrifying, and anti-artist, but I don't think it is." - @dhruvbansal

Self-custody done entirely yourself has gaps.
And exchanges also have gaps.
And ETFs have gaps.

Custody Can't be a Coin Flip.
Last time, we focused on heads—the problems of going it alone with self-custody.
This month, we'll be back to regularly scheduled programming with tails: the dangers of custodians.

Exchanges.
ETFs.
Singlesig.
DIY multisig.
They all have weak spots.
Collaborative custody is built to have none.

Now is the time to start year-end giving.
A DAF lets you make the donation this year, without choosing the charities yet.
With appreciated bitcoin:
1. Claim a deduction this year.
2. Avoid recognizing capital gains.
3. The bitcoin gift can sit in a multisig vault until you're ready to recommend grants, even years later.
