In the span of just one month, four crypto billionaires have died under suspicious circumstances.
Nikolai Mushegian, a co-founder of MakerDAO, was found dead on a Puerto Rican beach just hours after tweeting about intelligence agencies coming after him.
Broker Javier Biosca was discovered dead in Estepona, Spain while under investigation for the largest cryptocurrency fraud in the country.
Amber Group co-founder Tiantian Kullander died unexpectedly in his sleep, and Russian crypto billionaire Vyacheslav Taran died in a helicopter crash.
The string of deaths has sparked numerous conspiracy theories within the crypto community, including the possibility of a mafia hit job, involvement from central banking hierarchies, and even the possibility that some of the billionaires faked their own deaths.
What do you think? The crypto ecosystem is no stranger to such theories, as the mysterious death of QuadrigaCX CEO Gerald Cotten in India in 2020 also caused a stir.
