It's sarcasm.

Everyone who had coin in Mt.Gox lost it during a hack. A portion of that was returned to the users who had a loss about a year ago.

Yeah my 100 stolen bitcoins got me a cool $4k check from the settlement. Definitely made whole by that :|

I think you would have been much better off choosing the bitcoin option. You'd have gotten around 40 BTC back, I think.

I don't believe I had the option. I just filed my claim, and several years later a check showed up.

Hm no, at some point you were asked whether you want USD or BTC, plus (later) whether you want it guaranteed now or whether you want to wait for more.

That's what I remember, anyway.

Perhaps you should log in and verify. Maybe you missed the step about setting up an account on an exchange to get it transferred.

There was quite a few steps...maybe you still have something coming.
