Qu’est-ce que Not your keys, not your coins ?
The maxim that coins held by a third party are that party's coins and your claim against them.
The phrase is a slogan, but the underlying point is precise: on-chain, control follows the key. A custodial balance is an entry in somebody's database backed by a promise.
Repeated exchange failures have made the point empirically rather than rhetorically. It does not mean custody is always wrong; it means the risk should be a decision, not a surprise.
