First line of the article: "IT SEEMS controversial virtual currency bitcoin has claimed its first life."
It then goes on to list numerous other things she has done but doesn't link her death to those.
- Lerc 13y agoThere are a number of things wrong with that assertion. It doesn't prima facie seem to be bitcoin related. People bought high and sold low on the various bitcoin bubbles. There were people who invested money they couldn't afford to lose who went on to lose it. If we were being heartless enough to be awarding a prize for the first bitcoin related death. It probably happened to some poor soul in 2011 and the world barely noticed. Ross Ulbricht is alleged to have directly paid for someone to be killed.
