Firstly, you need to get set up with a solid wallet with all the great features a Bitcoiner might need. I'm a big fan of Sparrow Wallet on desktop because of its versatility. To simplify, you can start off with the initial section on hot wallets.

Verify transactions yourself by connecting to your own node. Start9 is an awesome option that will give you a lot of other sovereignty tools as well. Follow the build, or skip ahead if you bought pre-assembled. Wallet connections at 50:26

It's great to EARN BTC through a good or service you offer. Doing so puts you ahead of the pack! If you're still fiat mining, then stacking non-KYC is 👌👌👌
Here's a walkthrough of using HodlHodl - just send to the Sparrow Wallet you set up!

Some of you will want to store your stack in a single-sig hardware option. This Coldcard tutorial goes DEEP, but you can stick with the opening 45 mins for basics. BONUS: Mix directly from Sparrow to CC (instructions in previous vid at 31:17)

Those looking for more robust security with multisig & inheritance can dive into Nunchuk. Full tutorial here. Fun fact: you can save your BSMS backup file and import it to Sparrow Wallet so you can still mix directly to it!

Well, there you have it. Even if you only do the first step of getting a wallet & stacking some corn, you're STILL bank-run proof! That said, I'd encourage you to chip away at as much of the above as your curiosity will allow.
Stay safe, stay curious, stay sovereign.
