Lots of people who push the narrative that the average person won't be able to self-custody is probably malicious, to be honest.
Saylor directly tried to imply companies that make self-custody easier are scamming people. Classic case of projection!

I feel its the other way around: if they want you to NOT self-custody then it sounds scammy
Yeah, and people who have had adversarial relationships with authorities and corporations would probably feel that way.
I think carrying cash in your back pocket is riskier than self-custody with crypto. You may lose your wallet with your cash in it at any moment and even if you don't, that fiat is losing value every minute
Yeah, there's no seed phrase backup for cash.
