  • 024 Max Kei: Why The Debifi CEO Refuses To Custody Your Bitcoin
    Jan 14 2026

    NO CUSTODY. EVER. Max Kei explains Debifi’s multisig setup, why private keys matter for both borrower and lender, and why trust is harder to rebuild than privacy. He breaks down what’s coming: KYC vs non-KYC, institutions “reaching out,” the one principle he won’t compromise on: custody and much more.
