It took four years, but today I was officially made whole from the Celsius Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
I never imagined it would play out this way. When Celsius froze everyone’s funds in June 2022, I mentally wrote it off as a total loss. Instead of dwelling on it, I doubled down on stacking sats & rebuilt my family’s Bitcoin position.
My biggest takeaway from all of this wasn’t the recovery… it was the conviction. The experience strengthened my belief in Bitcoin & reinforced one lesson above all else: NOT your KEYS
NOT your COINS
self-custody isn’t optional
it’s essential
