Quadriga mystery deepens with little evidence of cold wallets containing $250M
- tyingq 8y agoI like the side story where Jesse Powell of Kraken mentions he's willing to share known Quadriga wallets with police. But...that reporters can only talk to him if they pay $100. That's funny.
- richsherwood 8y agoI’m not sure if the two are linked. There is a service that exists to ensure anyone sending you a message on LinkedIn requires a payment of some sort to prevent spam. It was popular in the ICO days.
- tyingq 8y agoAh, okay. Found it: https://earn.com/jespow/ https://earn.com/jespow/ The money goes to a charity, which is reasonable.

- myth_drannon 8y agoI wonder how the collapse of Quadriga will impact the housing bubble in Canada? I suspect some part of the assets was used for Chinese money laundering and investment in Canadian real estate(cue the Chinese guy in the article) .
- DKnoll 8y agoIt's just 250m so... not much.
- rchaud 8y agoAt a time when detached homes in Toronto and Vancouver are selling for a million or close to it, this will have no impact. Foreign buyers have numerous options to move money out of their countries through the regular banking system or via in-person cash transfers. Both of which have far less risk than a virtual exchange run by a twentysomething now presumably dead.
