Covers Bitcoin as a bearer and knower asset, what private keys, public keys, addresses and seed phrases actually are, the trade-offs between hot and cold wallets, and why holding your own keys removes counterparty risk entirely.
This is the philosophical and practical core of the whole track. Bitcoin is a bearer asset, and a knower asset specifically, ownership depends on control of the private key, not on identity or a custodian's permission. I cover the difference between KYC, bearer and knower assets, what keys, addresses and seed phrases actually are, the trade-offs between hot and cold storage, and why not your keys, not your coins is the rule that defines real ownership.
