SEC suddenly shifts to investor education! 👀 Latest guidelines warn: Losing your private key = permanent loss!

The SEC is no longer just shouting for enforcement; it is starting to publish custody guidelines to educate investors. The core warning: self-custody (self-managed wallets) means you will bear full responsibility, and once the private key is lost or stolen, the assets will be permanently zeroed out. This indicates that regulators recognize the core risks of crypto custody and are trying to guide the market towards more regulated custody solutions.

What does this mean for traders? In the short term, the regulatory focus has shifted from 'is it legal' to 'how to be safe', which may reduce the direct pressure on exchanges. But in the long term, the importance of compliant custody services (such as institutional-level custodians) will sharply increase, and self-custody thresholds will be higher for newcomers.

💡 Key insight: In a bull market, safety is more important than getting rich quickly. If you are not a technical expert, please carefully assess your asset custody methods. For large funds, please prioritize regulated custody solutions.
