Nope, Cardano, Monero, Polkadot, Tezos and ARRR all kept in my own wallet--backed up with seed phrases.
I don't keep BTC as I think it's basically crippled (TPS). I have individual wallets for each on both my PC and phone. I'm staking DOT, XTZ, and ADA from my PC wallets.

BTC has been around for 13 years--not 5.
The forks are success stories. Further, forks grant holders equal amounts on each chain--so no coin is lost in this way.
The Hive fork remains a great example of on chain (Proof of Stake) governance, and having beat back a centralized hostile takeover, came back valued higher in post.

But it's at least possible. Would you discount science and technology purely because you don't understand it?
