Why this matters
Whether Samsung reaches the custody and settlement layer depends on what it actually names. If it points at a custodian, a redemption term or a withdrawal rule, that is the layer where exposure lives, and the name and its timing are the parts worth checking. If it names none of those, this angle simply does not apply here, and reading custody risk into it would be an assumption rather than a finding.
Evidence boundary
The scope is limited to what the linked reports state, and where two of them diverge both positions are recorded without either being picked in advance.
What to verify
If Samsung names a custodian or a redemption term, check that name and its timing against the operator’s own documentation; if it names neither, there is nothing here to verify on that layer.
