I doxed myself.
I shared a screenshot of four on-chain purchases from the Midwest Bitcoin Summit as proof that retail isn't gone. No addresses, no balance. But exact amounts and timestamps are enough to find a transaction, and my spending wallet was also my staging wallet. The screenshot showed the front door to my savings.
The vault was fine. The hallway needed a second door.
Self-custody is not a setup. It's a habit.
