Self-custody means the authority to use your wallet remains with you rather than with an exchange or wallet provider. NordBalticum is designed to help you manage that authority through protected local access, approved devices and clear recovery responsibilities.
You authorize transfers
Recovery is your responsibility
NordBalticum does not custody assets
01
Control is practical
Your wallet is not a promise that a company will release an account balance later.
02
Responsibility is real
There may be no central operator able to reverse a transfer or restore lost recovery material.
03
Security uses layers
Account access, device trust, wallet authorization and optional MFA serve different purposes.
Self-custody changes who can act
In a custodial account, the provider ultimately controls the keys and processes withdrawals according to its systems. In self-custody, your wallet authorizes blockchain transactions directly.
That independence reduces reliance on a custodian, but it also removes familiar recovery guarantees. You need a deliberate approach to devices, PINs, recovery information and destination checks.
What NordBalticum adds around your control
NordBalticum separates sign-in from wallet authorization. Approved devices, wallet-specific protection and optional MFA add decision points around sensitive actions without changing the underlying fact that you control the wallet.
The interface can guide, warn and validate. It cannot make an incorrect address correct or undo a finalized blockchain transaction.

Clear answers
Frequently asked
Can NordBalticum move my assets?
NordBalticum is designed as self-custody wallet software; wallet actions require authorization through your protected wallet access.
Can support reverse a blockchain transaction?
No. A finalized blockchain transaction cannot be reversed by NordBalticum support.
Is self-custody automatically safer?
Not automatically. It changes the risk model and requires strong device, recovery and transaction habits from the user.
