The Three Most Critical Layers of Security for Bitcoin
The security of your Bitcoin comes from how you hold your private keys. Your node allows you to verify that when you withdraw your Bitcoin from an exchange, that they're actually sending you real Bitcoin. The third layer is the miners. And what they are really securing is the finality of the transaction so that it cannot be reversed.
