- ColinWright 5y agoFor anyone who, like me, have/had never heard of them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igor_and_Grichka_Bogdanoff https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igor_and_Grichka_Bogdanoff Apparently they also claimed to have influenced, or even invented, BitCoin: https://marketrealist.com/p/what-happened-to-bogdanoff-crypto/ https://marketrealist.com/p/what-happened-to-bogdanoff-crypt...
- G3rn0ti 5y agoIt’s a bit out of place, I know, but this crypto connection needs an explanation: Their involvement into Bitcoin is nothing more than a silly meme. According to this — quite popular — conspiracy meme, the late Bogdanoff twins lured noobs into crypto investments and then wrecked them by triggering a large selloff. Whatever. My prayers are with their families. RIP.
- ColinWright 5y agoIt's more than just the silly meme. Quoting from the lunk article: > In a July 2021 interview with French television program L’Heure des Pros, the twins claimed that they discussed blockchain and crypto asset ideas with a Japanese scientist named Soïtchiro Shimoda, who they think was associated with Bitcoin’s inventors, reports Bitcoin.com. > “Igor and I, as mathematicians, were able to participate in the elaboration of some of the [Bitcoin] source code, especially the ‘predictive code,’” Grichka told L’Heure des Pros. And yes, regardless, thoughts and sympathies with the families.
