AnchorWatch states that a stolen password alone cannot move Bitcoin held in its Multi-Institution Custody Vault because an authorized person must confirm each transfer on a video call with each institution using a YubiKey. Held as a dated organizational description of its custody security model during the post-COLDCARD safe-harbor period. The claim is the publisher's own and is not independently verified here.

This post is registered as evidence and has a locally held capture. The original remains the canonical publication.
