But we saved everything 🙂.

Lopp has previously commented on the risks associated with third-party custodians, saying platforms such as ETFs do not eliminate the potential for bitcoin losses in a recent article. He also criticized the tendency of users to migrate between centralized providers after security incidents, as detailed in a previous report. Both remarks point to ongoing concerns around asset protection in the cryptocurrency sector.
