I am not going to share attribution of who made this statement, but it was an OG, and it was in response to certain things that were being said by people from Swan on social media who were engaged in crisis management.
Disclosure: I am not a customer of Swan. I have reasons to personally dislike Swan. Yes, I am biased, but I am sharing this post with that being made completely open so no one can accuse me of being disengenuous.
Best option is to withdraw ASAP -- if there is a fractional reserve, find out! I am not a shitcoiner, never have been ($20 bucks of Doge from 2013 that I didn't know about, and held ETH for a few months in 2017 when I got into bitcoin before realizing it was worthless trash -- people call me toxic, so I'm the furthest you can get from an anti-maxi). I think Swan wasted their opportunity to build useful tools in favor of marketing, got in my way, and you can say I'm arrogant (probably am), but when you get in my way, there's a good chance I'll consider your existence as a net negative unless you impress me, and Swan does not impress.
Guys, I will always say: START EARNING BITCOIN, not buying anymore. Push your employer (if you still work like a fiat slave) or your clients (if you freelance) to pay you in bitcoin.
This you should wear every fucking day until they get mad and start paying you in bitcoin

STOP accepting fiat! Soon will come the day that they will want to pay you in CBDC.

Are you going to accept that if you are not prepared and already paid in BTC?
BTW... even Swan is hiring and paying in BTC 😂😂😂 https://fxtwitter.com/coryklippsten/status/1667179962254622726

Idk how many times I have to tell people, IT'S NOT THE PAYMENT, IT'S THE DENOMINATION AND PAYMENT IF REGULATED IS OFTEN A LARP.
Denomination is something that requires a little bit of thinking, but not all that much. https://heaviside.substack.com/p/the-forgotten-fourth-function-of

"NO PUBLICITY. Account Holder will not make any public statement, including any press release, media release, or blog post which mentions or refers to Fortress or a partnership between Account Holder and Fortress, without the prior written consent of Fortress."
I thought the auto-withdraw feature of Swan was pretty nice, but yeah now there's no way I could use the platform ever again.

Lol, wow, sketchiest thing I have ever seen on a purportedly non-rugpull.
If I really wanted to be spicy I just what have shared this image, which isn't even spicy, it's just reality. 🤷‍♂️

Trying to withdraw for a week now. Nothing, although told Monday my account had migrated to Fortress. Luckily, I never keep much on any exchange. This was a small amount of btc that hadn't cleared for withdrawal yet.

I lost some respect for Cory when he started joking around about renaming crypto.com arena the swan arena when tons of customers were having issues accessing funds. Seemed like something SBF would do.
I am not going to crucify him over an ill timed joke or meme but if you are going to be the grim reaper of "crypto" ponzis (well deserved), make sure your house is in order.

Doesn't swan send the BTC to your custodial address after the fiat payment clears?

Only if setup that way, which most do not
