    An issue so important definitely deserves its own thread.

    Do you have any good links to stories about that 20% number?

    It's in Wikipedia from a Wall Street Journal article, but WSJ is behind a paywall so a link wouldn't really help unless you are a subscriber.

    A Washington Post story says that the amount that clients can't retrieve is 190 million which if true makes the 20% number suspect.

    Are you talking about Quadriga? Because I'm talking about all Bitcoins lost for any reason, and this number was around before the Quadriga thing became news.

    He plays Captain and

    Adama. He does not have a penchant for antiquing in this series. Which is great.

    It seems highly likely the money was simply stolen and the CEOs encrypted laptop is simply a bricked laptop where all this fraud could be hidden when he died

    Nerds have been doing block chain analysis which show Quadrgia was insolvent, essentially using deposits to cover withdrawals - leading to increasing delays in being able to get withdrawals honoured. Also they were harvesting BTC and $ETH out to other exchanges

    In otherwords this is a giant scam and the Court is having the wool pulled over its eyes

    I'm curious to know if this guy has been confirmed dead. I can see some story about him being immediately cremated when he's actually living the high life somewhere.

    There had been contact with the luxury hospital he died at and they have given a detailed statement on his death

    I think he really did die and that presented the opportunity for him to take all the Bitcoin to his grave
