Hacked Bitcoin whale may have lost $238m
What is your theory? That the ocean’s apparent vengeance on billionaires extends to bitcoin whales?
The co-defendant from the lawsuit also dying is more specifically suspicious, the btc “hack” happening at the same time is just a potential cherry on top.
I found it odd that the two co-defendants died within days of each other. But it’s hard to imagine that it was a conspiracy, given that the yacht sank because of a storm. I don’t see any connection to the bitcoin hack.
The storm must have been caused by judicious Cloud Seeding.
I think you may have your tin foil hat on too tight 😆
Dude! They only work if they’re on tight!
The yacht seemingly sank because of the storm, but we don’t have enough confirmed evidence to make that a factual consideration yet, just a guess. There are a lot of pieces that may connect. The missing people include very high wealth individuals, and the lawsuit angle creates a connection for potential malfeasance.
What better cover story would work to hide several crimes? Its not necessarily a conspiracy of crime, but it has some weird timing.
