It depends on what you need it to survive. Hodl Hodl runs multisig escrow custody, with no single point of failure recorded: no one institution's failure reaches your bitcoin on its own. Proof of Custody scores it 61/100 as of 2026-02-18. Self-managed multi-vendor multisig is a good fit for the technically serious holder who treats custody as a discipline: multiple vendors, separate entropy, documented recovery, periodic drills, and the wrong choice for anyone who has not written down what their family does on day one without them — the registry's self-custody losses are mostly operational, not cryptographic. The score is an editorial judgement; the facts to check are the custody model, the single point of failure and the incident history below.
