Intro to Bitcoin & Self Custody with @Gabe_P18

Gabe is a bitcoin educator and entrepreneur. He currently resides in El Zonte, El Salvador and is on a mission to spread bitcoin adoption. One of the first sayings you will hear while learning about bitcoin is, "not your keys, not your coins." Bitcoin is a bearer asset, which means you can, and should actually take ownership of it if you want to take advantage of this key property. However, starting the self custody process is one of the more intimidating elements of adopting bitcoin. This episode intends to break down how to think about bitcoin security and custody, as well as touch on some other bitcoin fundamentals.
