Is Your Crypto Safe?

t seems like every time you turn around, there's another headline about lost crypto fortunes. It's enough to make anyone feel that investing in digital assets is like navigating a minefield.

You've done the hard work of building your wealth. The idea of it vanishing overnight because of a hack or a lost password is a legitimate fear.

Here's what doesn't make sense: You wouldn't buy a property without insurance. You wouldn't leave a multi-million dollar real estate portfolio unprotected. Yet people are putting significant portions of their wealth into crypto without insured custody.

So what is insured custody, you might ask?

When it comes to storing your crypto, you have two main options:

✓ Personal Custody — You hold your own private keys, which means you're entirely responsible for security, backups, and recovery. One mistake, one lost password, and your wealth could be gone forever.

⚠️ Important: Leaving your crypto on an exchange is also personal custody, NOT insured custody.

✓ Insured Custody — Your digital assets are held by a regulated, licensed custodian who provides institutional-grade security and insurance protection. If something goes wrong, you're covered.

It's all about risk.

And more importantly, it's about being able to sleep at night.

When your digital assets are held with an insured custodian, it's the difference between leaving your life savings under a mattress and securing it in a bank vault.

Many people just accept the high-risk approach. They're told, "not your keys, not your crypto," and left to fend for themselves. But why are people risking their whole estate with outdated strategies when there are proven solutions available now?

It's not about giving up control. It's about adding a layer of professional-grade security so you can focus on building long-term, generational wealth with confidence—and actually get some rest.

If your crypto portfolio vanished tomorrow, would your family's financial future still be secure—or would you be starting over from scratch?
