How serious crypto wealth is actually structured, from custody to governance. The seven layers, in the order they usually come together, and why each matters.
The ordering is doing more work than it looks. Every layer above custody can be restructured after the fact: entities redrawn, plans amended, lending refinanced. Custody is the only one where a mistake is terminal rather than expensive. So it isn't a priority list, it's a reversibility list, which is why people who start at layer four keep discovering that nothing they built there survives a problem at layer one.
Do you have any ideas of why Pantera did not include xrp in its new crypto index fund?

A shame if you get 6 out of 7 right. If you don’t do #7, your legacy family probably gets little or nothing. Thanks for sharing!
