Just over five years ago, Bitcoin.com News reported on the Taihuttu family after they decided to sell their home, children’s toys, and vehicles so they can accumulate bitcoin (BTC). On Wednesday, the patriarch of the family, Didi Taihuttu, spoke with CNBC and explained that the family is moving $1 million in crypto assets to dex protocols following the FTX collapse.

Taihuttu detailed that before the decision to proactively move the funds from cex platforms to dex protocols, the family stored a fraction of funds on trading platforms like Bybit and Kraken. “If you never send your bitcoin to an exchange,” Taihuttu said, “your bitcoin stays in your own wallet, meaning you have complete custody of your coins. [But] you connect to a dex, and by making that connection, you trade out of your own wallet.”
