This video answers it directly and permanently. Mt. Gox lost 850,000 Bitcoin. FTX vaporized $8 billion overnight. Bybit lost $1.4 billion in a single hack last year ā€” the largest theft in crypto history. Different decades, different countries, different excuses. Same outcome every time. The people who held their own keys were safe. Everyone else learned a painful lesson. This video covers paper Bitcoin, rehypothecation, altcoin contagion, regulatory freezes, social engineering attacks, the withdrawal pause signal, and why Bitcoin Well's non-custodial model sidesteps every single one of them.
