Whether you're new to Bitcoin or looking to optimize your existing holdings, we provide the expertise you need.

Secure Self-Custody

Take full control with cold storage solutions. Zero counter-party risk, complete financial sovereignty.

I'll walk you through hardware wallet setup, secure seed phrase storage, and best practices for maintaining complete control over your Bitcoin without relying on third parties.

Multi-Signature Security

Distribute keys across trusted parties for the ultimate protection. Institutional-grade security for individuals.

Multi-sig requires multiple keys to authorize transactions, protecting you from single points of failure. Perfect for high-value holdings or business treasuries.

UTXO Optimization

Reduce fees and organize your holdings efficiently. Smart transaction management saves money.

Learn to consolidate UTXOs during low-fee periods, manage coin selection, and structure your wallet for privacy and cost efficiency over time.

Run Your Own Node

Verify your own transactions and strengthen the network. True self-sovereignty starts here.

Running a node means you don't trust anyone else to validate your transactions. I'll help you set up and maintain your own Bitcoin node at home.

Lost access? Forgotten passphrase? Old hardware? I've helped recover Bitcoin from complex situations—let's work through your recovery together.

Dollar-cost averaging removes emotion from the equation. I'll help you set up automated buying strategies that fit your budget and goals.

From the basics of blockchain to the economics of sound money, I provide clear, no-hype education tailored to your current understanding level.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers about Bitcoin consulting in the Reno-Tahoe area.

Do you meet clients in person?

Yes — in-person consulting is the core of what I do. I am based in the Reno-Tahoe area and meet clients throughout Reno, Sparks, Carson City, and around Lake Tahoe, including Incline Village, Truckee, and South Lake Tahoe.

Why is Nevada a good place to hold Bitcoin?

Nevada has no state income tax and no state capital gains tax, so gains on a long-term Bitcoin position are only taxed at the federal level. Combined with blockchain-friendly legislation and a growing regional tech economy, Northern Nevada is one of the most Bitcoin-friendly places in the country.

What does a Bitcoin consultant actually do?

I help you own Bitcoin safely and deliberately: setting up hardware wallets and multi-sig custody, planning inheritance, optimizing for taxes with your CPA, structuring Bitcoin-backed loans, and providing honest education without hype. I never take custody of your Bitcoin and never sell investment products.

Is my Bitcoin safe on an exchange like Coinbase?

Exchanges are convenient for buying, but leaving Bitcoin there long-term means trusting a third party with your keys. Hacks, account freezes, and bankruptcies have cost holders billions. Self-custody with a properly configured hardware wallet removes that counterparty risk — and setting it up correctly is exactly what I help with.

How much does a consultation cost?

The first conversation is free. We discuss your situation and goals, and I outline where your setup stands and what I would fix. From there, engagements are scoped to what you actually need — one session for a custody setup, or ongoing advisory for larger strategies.
