This isn’t the first time that large amounts of cryptocurrency have been lost.
Canadian crypto exchange QuadrigaCX says it cannot repay most of $190 million in client holdings after its 30-year-old founder Gerald Cotten, the only person who knew the passwords to its “cold storage,” unexpectedly died in India in December 2018, Coindesk reported on Friday.
I wonder how much inflation bitcoin has had due to lost currency. 💸
