What If the U.S. Bans Self-Custody Crypto Wallets? 🚫

About this video

What if MetaMask, Ledger, and all self-custody wallets were banned in the U.S.?

That’s the fear behind growing regulation talk, a world where Americans can’t hold their Crypto unless it’s on a government-approved exchange. No cold wallets. No private keys. Total oversight.

We’ve seen signs of this before, just look at the Tornado Cash crackdown, where developers were arrested and wallets blacklisted.

A ban on self-custody would strike at the heart of Crypto freedom. But enforcing it? Nearly impossible. The blockchain is borderless. Code can’t be jailed.

If governments try to tighten the grip, expect a rise in VPNs, decentralized platforms, and offshore wallet use.

This video breaks down the consequences of a self-custody ban and why it could spark the next battle for digital freedom.
