A small reminder to withdrawl your crypto off the exchange...

Quote from a noob: 'No need to worry, I'm sure the exchange has taken the appropriate mesures...'

Mt. Gox, 2014: we got hacked and lost all the money!

'NOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!. I'll have to buy some again!'

1 year later

BTC-e, 2015: 'This site has been seized by the FBI...

'DAMMIT! AGAIN!'

QuadrigaCX- 2019: 'The CEO died and he was the only one to know the private keys.' (Yeah, right...)

'AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!'

'That's it! I'm never touching BTC ever again!'

20 years later

The times, 2039: 'Fiat currency crashes, the chancellor can't bailout banks anymore...

Burns credit cards, cheques, fiat money, and goes on the street to start begging for satoshis and dogecoin.

Seriously though, please remember guys: not your keys, not your bitcoin. If it is truly lost/stolen and spent, no attorney can get it back for you. Cryptography will always be stronger than arbitrary laws and a convincing person's words.
