Episode notes
Bootstrapped Focus Yields Product Freedom
- Coin Corner intentionally avoided VC-driven share-printing treasury tactics and kept focus on Bitcoin-only products.
- That early bootstrapping gave them freedom to prioritise Lightning and Bitcoin-native innovations.
Take Self-Custody Of Your Bitcoin
- Move your Bitcoin off exchanges into self-custody and cold storage rather than trading for fiat panic.
- Use hardware solutions like BitBox to control your keys and avoid exchange custody risks.
Bolt Card And Send Globally Trials
- Coin Corner built the Bolt contactless Lightning card and used it worldwide as a Lightning payments proof-of-concept.
- They also ran a 'Send Globally' service routing GBP to local currency via Lightning for remittances.
