Who am I?
My name is Cole.
I stacked my first sats at the age of 15, and like most bitcoiners, fell deep down the rabbit hole. Software wallets, hardware wallets, nodes, lightning, I dug deep into it all.
After hundreds of hours of research, I started making YouTube videos. With feedback, I discovered many people appreciated my concise teaching style and approached me for hands on guidance in securing their bitcoin.
After helping secure multiple coins, I decided to build this site to reach more bitcoiners and help secure more coins.

Back in 2022, I noticed that far too many bitcoiners understand why they hold it, but lack the knowledge to secure it properly and had their life savings in extremely fragile setups.
This pushed me to create the Southern Bitcoiner YouTube channel, where I teach my viewers how to secure their coins and sovereignty.
