Custody fails in familiar ways. This note maps the incentives, dependencies, and governance gaps that turn access into something conditional.
LeggiA clear disclosure posture makes custody legible. This note defines what should be public, what should stay controlled, and why clarity matters.
LeggiSafeguarding bitcoin and keeping access predictable is one job. Yield is a different job. This note explains why we keep those categories separate.

LeggiThe simplest relationship in finance: if you hold bitcoin in custody, it is held 1:1 for you. This note defines what "full reserve" means and what it rules out.
LeggiThe real test happens on difficult days, not quiet ones. Continuity means designing custody to remain operable through stress, without improvisation.
