Fully self-sovereign is a Platonic ideal that can be approached asymptotically, but likely never actually
reached in practice.
Self-custodial base-layer bitcoin audited by one's own node is the closest. However, if someone runs their own bitcoin node and self-custodies their own coins, but hasn't reviewed every line of code, are they self-sovereign, or are they trusting others to some degree and thus giving up some aspect of their sovereignty? And even if you did review every line of code, are you sure you haven't missed a bug, in a world where even the best computer scientists can (and have) missed bugs?
And then the next question is one of purpose. Self-sovereignty for its own sake, or to fulfill a practical function (making oneself rug-resistant in terms of savings and censorship-resistant in terms of payments).
A large corporation that distributes cash reserves among several banks can still have all of its cash frozen by one centralized court order. Or can get rugged by the central bank that all of those banks tie into.
But if you have money spread out among chaumian mints (not just put in one federated chaumian mint but actually spread out among several different mints), then not only do you spread out risk, but there's not necessarily any one entity that can identity where your funds are or how much you have. And then if you can economically afford a UTXO, it makes sense to pull savings to the base layer.
And that can work on Bitcoin as it is now. If people want other solutions, they need to develop them or Bitcoin needs to be changed w/ a fork of some type. And those solutions will likely still have sovereignty limits at some point on the asymptotic approach towards the Platonic ideal.
A concerned citizen called the Miami Seaquarium to ask about the fate of Li’i, their elderly dolphin living in solitary confinement and in ever deteriorating conditions. Their answer was telling.
Geologist, Professor Ian Plimer, utterly demolishes the human-induced "climate emergency" fairy tale in three and a half minutes:
"[Six of the six] great ice ages started when we had more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere than now. We have 0.04% of that gas in the atmosphere... Well that means nothing to me, because the atmosphere has changed in its carbon dioxide content from over 20% to now, which is really low in geological time. If we halved it, all plant life would die, and animals would die."

The canal and surrounds are looking amazing in Greenford at the moment. We cleared just one bag of rubbish, mostly it was bags from the water. We think people are finally respecting this space and nature is certainly enjoying it
