Binance halted rails over a compromised laptop while Google Cloud pitched MPC custody to institutions who prefer delegating their panic. Hardware vendors are hunting malicious implants in their supply chains. BTCPay users running outdated software woke up to empty hot wallets, surprised that unpatched servers leak capital. Meanwhile, someone ported a Game Boy emulator to a Coldcard, because distraction pairs well with systemic counterparty rot. The instinct to outsource custody never dies. It just rotates through cloud vendors, dodgy distributors, and enterprise dashboards until the balance hits zero. Humans will invent an entirely new technological bureaucracy just to avoid memorizing twelve words. Outsourcing your keys is simply pre-ordering your own liquidation.
