If I trust that Schneier actually wrote that post, and I'm wrong, no big deal. If I trust that my choice of cryptocurrency software (or hardware wallet) is legit, and I'm wrong, I lose all the savings I put into crypto, with zero chance of recovery.

if you put your savings into something you don't know how to operate safely, maybe you deserve to lose it? ultimately all the services you rely on to keep your savings safe can be built by other companies on top of bitcoin for a fee (already happening btw). it's just an option in addition to the rest of financial world. eggs, basket, yadda, yadda.

  Sounds like you are planning to trust those companies to build services that operate safely on your behalf. Hope that works out for you.

    we're all doing it already. with bitcoin you can at least choose how much in control you want to be.
