Maybe if I had a hell of a lot more bitcoin than I do.

I'm pretty sure you have to use their "vault" product -- It's not like you can roll your own cold storage setup and expect to get it insured.

Yeah this is why I am on the fence with it. You have to use their hardware devices. Plus I’m not sure how much this costs for the small stacked stackers.

But I am all for insurance! Risk and loss happen and I am glad this company is around to help mitigate the risk of total loss especially if it happened via the $5 wrench attack

This would defeat the purpose imo, may as well just use an insured custodian if you're doing "self-custody" with their infrastructure.

I think the product makes more sense for company treasuries where the investors demand this to mitigate key-man risk

Taproot being a huge mistake and relatively new, storing large amounts of coin in a tapscript isn't aligned to a risk-averse strategy either.

This is hilarious and ridiculous FUD given the bitcoin you deposit with anchorwatch is literally insured.

The insurance is meant for operational fuck-ups, if their entire portfolio of insurees get pwned that's Force majeure.

Cope harder shitcoiner.
