I’m grateful to share that last night I finally secured fully sovereign ownership of my Bitcoin!! - I created a wallet on the Coldcard I bought (with sats) from @average_bitcoiner at a recent Bitcoin meetup at @npub1zzsf...4lj8 - I made a Sparrow wallet and connected it to the @757BTC node (shoutout to @theGig for the help!) - and finally I sent my KYC Bitcoin from my LedgerLive and my Swan to that wallet! Feels so good to finally have self custody of my Bitcoin! Thank you to everyone who helped me get here 🥳 I feel so accomplished and grateful right now 🥰
