Have you lost anything by this incident?

https://edition.cnn.com/2019/02/05/tech/quadriga-gerald-cotten-cryptocurrency/index.html

Gerald Cotten, a 30-year old CEO and co-founder, died of complications
arising from Crohn's Disease while travelling in India and now nobody
knows his passwords and millions are expected to be lost unless somebody
can crack his computers to recover the passwords.

So the moral of the story is avoid crypto currencies unless it is
obtained through illicit means!!!

The name of the company is "Quadriga" and it is a Canadian corporation
so avoid that company completely as it is said:

Quadriga has filed for creditor protection and estimates that about
C$180m ($137m; £105m) in cryptocurrency coins is missing.


How can a Canadian corporation be so stupid to depend on one individual
to keep all passwords is beyond me!!!!!!!!
