No. I mean the startup in question went on to be worth about a billion dollars (last I checked), but the stock I bought from them was turned into wastepaper through some mechanism that I don't understand. Might have been a rescue job of some kind. Maybe they're lying and owe me a bunch of money. I don't know.

Sounds complicated. Most likely they hired an expert to make it happen.
Sounds like something a good independent lawyer should have a look at.
