In 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto had a world-changing idea. To develop a "peer-to-peer version of electronic cash" where one always maintained custody of his or her assets. A world where finance was completely decentralized, and everyone could participate. Self-custody was a core compoent to Satoshi's vision.
But Satoshi's decentralized vision was subverted with the rise centralized exchanges. People traded And from Mt. Gox to FTX to Voyager, relinquishing custody has led to countless meltdowns, causing harm to people and to crypto's original mission.
Ethos has a singular mission to advance self-custody and decentralization. By making self-custody both secure and easy, the Ethos Self-Custody Vault removes the anxiety and friction that has always plagued DeFi apps, paving the way to make the original self-custody vision of crypto's founders a reality.
