  <p>“We understand users and creditors will be disappointed by the news that Dasset has gone into liquidation. The process of securing the assets is complex; there are third parties involved and nearly 100 different types of digital assets. We will work with management and third parties to resolve any issues as soon as possible.”</p> <cite>Dasset’s liquidator statement</cite> 
 </blockquote>
