oh lord i didn't even think about this

they're not broker-dealers so SIPA doesn't apply. they're not futures commission merchants, so commodity regulations don't apply. they're not a bank. those are the only bankruptcy regimes that give priority to "customer" claims.

god i hope they go bust that case would be loving hilarious

I think they sold off everything, and it mainly went to paying off fees and the account holders got practically nothing

I find it difficult to believe that before SIPA brokerages had no (voluntary) way to protect customer shares from bankruptcy, but otoh easy to believe that coinbase didn’t bother trying

they didn't really need to, most brokerages don't hold your shares hostage and then offer them up as collateral if they go tits up simply because they don't own the shares, you do

extra funny because in the anime isn’t the city ultimately revealed to have been designed like that as part of a magic spell to extract power from human suffering

The whole country's pretty much rigged to crush everybody living in it to give one single guy eternal life - an even more apt analogy.
