What Happens After You Buy Crypto? A Beginner's Guide to Self-Custody 🔹 BlockMap

Buying cryptocurrency is often the first step in a much larger journey. Many newcomers focus on choosing an exchange and making their first purchase, but what happens next is just as important. Once you own crypto, you need to decide where to store it, how to protect it, and how to maintain control over your assets.

@passocacornio yes and one can already see that, with Smartphones advertising as "Dual-SIM" when they have only a single Nano-SIM and an eSIM option, but nit real DUAL-SIM…

Kinda how every garbage platform claims to do "End-to-End Encryption" but doesn't allow Self-Custody of all the keys.

The main advantage is that one doesn't need a dr0p to get an eSIM, which simplifies things…

@passocacornio I hate eSIMs unless I can install them on a physical card to restore my freedomvto choose whatever device I want to use them. - Fortunately there are both tools ( [miniLPA](https://github.com/EsimMoe/MiniLPA) ) and matching eSIMs ( [9eSIM](https://www.9esim.com) ) to do that… So you get the asvantages of eSIMs (free, instant delivery) and the advantages of SIM cards (Plug & Play on any GSM device) together without either disadvantages (being locked to specific hardware / delivery costs)… #eSIM #SIM #SIMcard #card #miniLPA #LPA #9eSIM #eSIMcard #GSM #2G #3G #4G #LTE #5G #eSIMs #SimCards

Tech-Illiterate people seem to be absolute idiots when it comes to ComSec, and TechLiterates groom them into ignorance, making it even worse!

Regardless if AIM, ICQ, Sky ECC, EncroChat, ANØM, Skype, WhatsApp or Signal.

All you guys literally providing trivial means to track and trace users should be ashamed!

There was no "legitimate reason" to demand PII like a phone number in 2010, there certainly ain't one in 2026!

Use XMPP+OMEMO and/or PGP/MIME and stop being unofficial informants for the Americal Stasi, dipshits!

Or does anyone believe that Signal will cover your asses? They can't even pay their bills, decentralize and get off AWS!

@cryptomator
The "Cloud" is just someone else's computer—and as we see, even tech giants aren't invincible.
When big tech fails or laws compromise your privacy, having a transparent way to access and manage your own backups becomes a necessity, not a luxury.
This is why #Keepita focuses on giving users a clear window into their mobile data. Don't let your backups be a mystery hidden in someone else's vulnerable cloud.
