Assuming you cashed out, wouldn't it be something like "that 10% you earned 10 years ago" because if you never cashed out then you're not liable.

My reply would be along the lines of: "Sorry lost it all in MtGox/FTX/Crypto/Vegas/Horses"

I mean, if the courts say you owe the money, you owe the money. If you lost it, looks like you got some debt to repay somehow.

The court would argue you didn’t complete due diligence and are liable for your mistake due to a crime taking place.
