Secure your Bitcoin with expert, hands-on guidance.

Get one-on-one help with the best hardware, software, and security practices - so you can protect your bitcoin with confidence for the long term.

No more Guesswork.

Get your Bitcoin secure the right way.

Perfecting your Bitcoin security setup takes time - most people don’t research all the ways to structure it, test it, and verify everything works. Very few follow best practices on their first attempt.

I help you get it right the first time, guiding you step-by-step to build a secure, private setup that meets the highest standards - and avoiding the mistakes I’ve personally seen many Bitcoiners make.

Cole doing a self custody workshop at Adopting Bitcoin

With 7 years in Bitcoin and over 5 years focused on security, I’ve guided clients across the globe in securing millions of US dollars worth of Bitcoin.

I have presented workshops at major Bitcoin conferences, appeared on bitcoin podcasts and radio shows, and run the Southern Bitcoiner YouTube channel where I teach practical Bitcoin security.

My goal is simple: make sure your Bitcoin is as secure as it can be — and with my support, you’ll skip the trial-and-error and walk away with a secure, private setup you can trust for the long term.
