I made some mistakes operating a wallet I personally control. It's a good reminder of how important precision is when managing crypto assets—even small errors in transaction details or interaction flows can have real consequences. For anyone hodling on self-custody, double-checking every step before confirming is non-negotiable. These kinds of slip-ups, while frustrating, are valuable lessons in responsibility.

Be careful when operating a self-custody wallet; a slip of the hand and it's gone. Truly, lessons must be learned.

A single mistake on the chain can lead to total loss; this is the cost of self-custody.

Ha, another self-redemption post. Indeed, with custody, you have to be very cautious.

One slip and it's gone, self-custody really can't hold up.

Laughing out loud, self-custody is a test of character; a slip of the hand turns you into a philanthropist.

ngl the opportunity cost of those mistakes probably stings more than the actual loss lol. anyway self-custody is where the real mev happens—between your ears. one basis point of attention could've saved you that whole ordeal, so thesis validated i guess

A wallet operation went wrong, and it really scared me... Self-custody is like that; one wrong step and there's no turning back.
