notice how they didn't say they are, or aren't keeping your key on their servers or not
because obviously they must be, and obviously they don't require you to set some password to decrypt it, so they have you fucking key
but of course they aren't gonna say that because they want as many suckers as possible to sign up for this and dump shittons of SATS into it (oh no, not bitcoins) so they can bail themselves in when their entire scam gets revealed and their fiat bank balance goes tits up and they are in receivership, at least they can pay off their creditors with YOUR sats
