On January 3, we celebrate Proof Of Keys Day.

A day to remind people of the importance of self-custody and that “not your keys, not your coins.”

Every January 3, people are invited to withdraw their XNO from custodians to a self-custody wallet with the keys securely backed up by their owners. Who are also invited to delegate the corresponding voting weight to a Principal Representative of their choice.

Read ‘How to take self custody of your nano’ to learn more.

The simple action of withdrawing and taking custody of your #nano on this year’s Proof of Keys Day has many benefits.

Here are 4 of them for you to feel encouraged to join us in 2024:

  1. Achieving monetary sovereignty without relying on intermediaries;
  2. Increasing personal security against attacks, hacks, outages, bankruptcies, rug pulls, etc;
  3. Keeping custodians honest on their reserves;
  4. Improving the network’s decentralization with proper voting delegation.

Benefits can go even further than this small list.

Educating others on the importance of self-custody is fundamental.

Do your part and join us in celebrating the Proof of Keys Day 2024!
