For those who suppose to be self-sovereign individuals: there are four things which you should control and take care of by yourself - without delegation.
1. Your will, desire and actions (including speech, transactions, and information transfer). This is called freedom.
2. Your health: study medicine (it takes just ~10 years, with future longevity it won’t be a problem).
3. Your physical security: the price of getting you (kidnapping, hunting, arresting) must be higher than the potential benefits for the bounty hunters/gangsters/government.
4. Computing: you must be able to compute and control what is computed by your hardware. In fact, this is the same number (1) - just your mind extended to external computing mediums. Running Bitcoin Core is not “don’t trust verify”: you must be able to ensure how it operates, what consensus logic it has and how it is configured. The same applies to all other critical software which affects (1)-(3): how you think, how free you are, how you are healthy, and how secure you are.
Don’t trust: just do it yourself. #NewMotto
