Let’s not shy away, those balances are a speculation on the future price of crypto. If the prices don’t go up they’re affected, simple as that.

That's obviously not what was being talked about in this context. The discussion was about being affected by suspended withdrawals if exchanges never give people their deposits back.
That's because gergov and tartoran were not making woah's point about people who don't have accounts at exchanges. They were making their own related point in reply, also about people who don't have accounts at exchanges, being damaged by price drops in the wake of problems at exchanges.

Are they allowed to do that?
