Self-custody means that you take full control and responsibility for your digital assets. In contrast to custody by a third party, such as a bank or crypto service provider, you hold your assets in custody yourself and therefore have full power of disposal.

In an increasingly digital world, self-custody gives you the ability to manage and secure your own financial assets without the perceived uncertainty of 'oh god, so much responsibility'. It promotes independence and self-determination because you don't have to rely on external institutions and you don't get into trouble in the event of a problem with an asset held with an institution or the institution itself.

Web3 is a new era of the internet based on decentralized technologies such as distributed ledgers and blockchain. These technologies enable a new foundation of trust where everything is verifiable and no central authority is required. Web3 democratizes value creation and distribution and provides more control over your digital identities and assets. In a Web3 context, you can not only read things on the Internet and have the ability to contribute (write), but you can also own elements or call them your own. For example, think about your posts on Instagram, TikTok, etc., which belong to the platform provider and they make money from your data, owning your own posts can enable entirely new forms of interaction and exchange of ownership. At urble, we encourage this approach and believe it's a better way to go.

An urble savings plan is a digital piggy bank into which you deposit money from your bank account, your credit card, your urble wallet or another wallet. In order for the fiat money from your bank account or credit card to end up in your savings plan, a transfer from fiat to crypto must take place. For this, urble offers you excellent conditions together with selected partners.

A savings plan in digital assets such as Bitcoin and Ether still makes sense, especially if you save continuously and steadily with the same amount. The more consistently and longer you do this, the more you benefit from the so-called “dollar-cost-average effect”.

An urble savings plan is suitable for every saver. Regardless of whether you have a small or large investment capital. In both cases, you can benefit from the savings plan and the purchasing power of Bitcoin and Ether. For short savings periods such as 1-2 years, however, urble recommends saving in stablecoins, as despite the long-term purchasing power of Bitcoin and Ether, a temporary loss in value due to volatility can often lead to an emotional reaction: "What's going on, why am I losing money?".

We've made it as easy as possible to create a savings plan with the urble app in just a few minutes. All you have to do is install the app, create your urble wallet and define your savings plan. Then you can save with a one-off or recurring payment until you've reached your savings goal.

You can not only pay in monthly, but also weekly or even daily. This allows you to benefit from the dollar-cost-averaging effect and to regain your purchasing power in the coming years.

Bitcoin is a digital currency that can be used to pay on the internet and anywhere in the world. Unlike the euro or US dollar, there are no notes or coins, but Bitcoin is 100% digital and can be taken anywhere.

It is decentralized, as anyone can own the currency without having to go to a bank or ask anyone for permission. Bitcoin is easy to use and requires a wallet, the digital purse where you store your Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is created with computers, in which people all over the world participate in a dice game with computers. The person who can prove fastest that they roll the correct number wins Bitcoin and can then send it to others.

The price of one Bitcoin varies constantly. The price is calculated on the basis of supply and demand. If demand is high, the price rises. If it falls, the price also falls. In urble you always see the current price in your chosen fiat currency.

Yes, that is possible. One Bitcoin can be divided into 100,000,000 Satoshis and is therefore divisible. Depending on the Bitcoin provider, you can buy Bitcoin for as little as €10. Due to its divisibility, Bitcoin is also the ideal means of saving, as you can continuously buy small amounts and benefit from the dollar-cost-averaging effect with a Bitcoin savings plan.

Absolutely! Bitcoin and Ether are much more than pure speculative objects, but rather the ideal means of saving to gain purchasing power in the long term. Even if you can trade them in the short term, on average it is better to buy and hold permanently and compare it much more like an investment in gold or other commodities such as oil.
