Tony Yazbeck is a Co-Founder at The Bitcoin Way, a Bitcoin self-custody and cybersecurity education consultancy. With over 25 years of experience in cybersecurity and IT infrastructure, Yazbeck joined The Bitcoin Way in March 2023, after co-founders Endi and Ahmed developed the initial company vision during the 2022 FTX collapse. The company's official profile recognises Yazbeck as a co-founder and Founder-Educator. His personal motivation for Bitcoin education is rooted in first-hand experience of the Lebanese financial system collapse, which shaped his focus on financial sovereignty and self-custody principles. The Bitcoin Way offers consulting, education sessions, Plan B residency guidance, and Bitcoin inheritance and security planning services. As of 2026, Yazbeck continues to contribute to The Bitcoin Way's educational curriculum, client engagements, and public speaking, focusing on practical cybersecurity applied to Bitcoin self-custody. All services are educational and operational guidance; they are not regulated financial advice.
