On this day in 1933, Executive Order 6102 was signed, forcing all US citizens to turn in the vast majority of their gold or face long prison sentences❗️ Bitcoin provides protection against a potential future order, but only when you avoid KYC exchanges and hold your own keys. image We'd love to help you do both through our education and the products we build to make self-custody simple. To finally take the plunge and get off of KYC exchanges, take a look at our most recent blog post here: If you're worried about the concept of being entirely responsible for your Bitcoin, we've got you covered with Passport, the Bitcoin hardware wallet you practically already know how to use: https://foundationdevices.com/passport/ And if using Passport + Envoy is still too daunting, we'd love to sit down with you 1:1 for an hour and guide you through every step of the process and answer all of your questions with our Concierge service: Nothing should stand in the way of you achieving financial sovereignty, and we're excited to see more and more people reclaiming their sovereignty through P2P exchanges, tools like Passport and Envoy, and the growing self-sovereign Bitcoin ecosystem. Bitcoin actually fixes this.
