That's interesting, will it be the final verdict for people like me who still suspects that there's a foul play with his death.
But well then, if the autopsy says that it's a suicide and there's a suicide note indicating his hand writing and can be verified by his wife and his children. That will close the case.
Topic: John McAfee: Anti-virus creator found dead in prison cell (Read 182 times)
Maybe someone was after him, dying in other country's cell seems fishy, inner prisoners could be involved.
UPDATE: Autopsy confirms he suicided and left a suicide note. We'll see how it goes from there.

A preliminary autopsy has confirmed that John McAfee, the famous antivirus creator, committed suicide in a Spanish prison, according to several sources close to the case who spoke to EL PAÍS. McAfee was found hanging from his cell last Wednesday by prison workers of Brians 2 penitentiary, located in Sant Esteve Sesrovires in the province of Barcelona. The 75-year-old had asked to spend time in his cell before he was found dead.
McAfee was in pre-trial detention after being charged with tax evasion by the United States. He had been in prison for more than eight months while Spain’s High Court, the Audiencia Nacional, considered the US’ extradition request for failing to file tax returns between 2014 and 2018. On Wednesday morning, McAfee’s lawyers told him that the court had decided to approve his extradition to the US and in the afternoon he killed himself, according to the investigation. The court’s decision, however, could have been appealed, and McAfee’s defense was already working on this process. According to the same sources consulted by EL PAÍS, McAfee left a suicide note in the pocket of his pants.

Is this real? That’s a fuck load of Bitcoin gone forever.
Wikipedia has been updated already. So it’s like 99% probable. I always thought this guy would die like a legend in a brothel drug fuelled sex orgy.

For real, we'll never know how much was seized and how much he had kept for his family. He's not dumb to let the CIA or any agency to keep all of his bitcoin and altcoins confiscated. He probably has kept a lot hidden for the sake of his children. Wikipedia has been updated already. So it’s like 99% probable. I always thought this guy would die like a legend in a brothel drug fuelled sex orgy.

It's official. Just Google his name and you'll see articles about his death.
I hope this is not hatred. Whatever he did to crypto, he brought attention to mass people, so his contributions are not negligible. There are doubts about his dead. I hope the truth reveals.
R.I.P McAfee.
R.I.P McAfee.
It was more of a joke. He actually committed quite a number of publicity stunts only to backtrack later:

I bet that's probably on his bucket list
He had his fun, but I guess his persona got the better of him.

It's shocking! John Mcafee was one of the strongest supporters of cryptocurrencies and a self made billionaire. The way he used to live his life, I doubt he had committed suicide. It can be a planned murder as well. In number of occasions, he had challenged US government in various matters. It could very well be a revenge for such deeds.
I am sure he was an outspoken guy and used to speak non sense many times, but his support towards cryptocurrency was really strong. This incident actually shows why we need freedom and privacy. Sad!

It's the CIA. They are 🐍. Rest in peace. See you in Valhalla.
Probably the CIA but we don't have to necessarilly believe, I don't think that McAfee is worth anything to CIA and if it is, he could've probably have some sort of way to announce the world the secret that makes him a target of CIA, anyways condolence to his family and his relatives.
Actually there was already a Running thread about this created yesterday by @mindtrust here
>>>>>>>>>>>>>> https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.57304820
and Even @theymos had already posted his sympathy on that thread so i guess locking this will be more essential to have no double thread about John's death.
but again RIP to the family and friends and to His supporters as well. Even what he stands for crypto still he will be Missed.. farewell man..

I still remember in 2017 when he predicted Bitcoin will reach 1 million. This man did have a good point of view and a very strong belief in Bitcoin.
No he wasn't. It was just an attempt to manipulate the price. Elon Musk has been trying to do the same and sooner or later, his sins will catch up with himMcFee predicted the 1 Million target by 2020. We all know what happened to Bitcoin in March 2020 when the price plunges back to around $4K
He then came out in May 2020 and started bashing Bitcoin and that the prediction was just a Joke

I'm the person who predicted Bitcoin, the most crippled crypto-tech, would reach $1 mil.
Are you one of the persons who did not see the absurd humor in it?
I posted it on the same day I predicted Whale Fucking would replace Surfing as the number one water sport.
Wake up!

Put a different way:
If Bitcoin ever hit $1 mil, it's market cap would be greater than the GDP of the entire North American Continent.
What idiot could believe such nonsense?
Whale Fucking is a thousand times more likely to make its way onto the Olympics Stage.

Among other things he did was promoting shitcoins and scam ICOs. If i recall well he also tried to introduce his own coin which was a complete fail.
May his soul rest in peace, but certain not as a bitcoin visionary.
Gonna be honest, I didn't think this guy was ever gonna die. He was a junkie and an unhinged psychotic mess, but I figured if the universe were gonna kill him it would have done long ago.
Surprised that it wasn't more spectacular.

Anti-virus software entrepreneur John McAfee has been found dead in a Barcelona prison cell hours after a Spanish court agreed to extradite him to the US to face tax evasion charges.
The Catalan Justice Department said prison medics tried to resuscitate him, but were not successful.
It said in a statement that "everything indicates" McAfee took his own life.
A controversial figure in the tech world, his company released the first commercial anti-virus software.
McAfee VirusScan helped to spark a multi-billion dollar industry in the computer world, and was eventually sold to technology giant Intel for more than $7.6bn (£4.7bn).
In October 2020, John McAfee was arrested in Spain when he was about to board a plane to Turkey, and accused of failing to file tax returns for four years, despite earning millions from consulting work, speaking engagements, crypto-currencies and selling the rights to his life story.
The US Justice Department alleged that McAfee evaded tax liability by having his income paid into bank accounts and cryptocurrency exchange accounts in the names of nominees.
He was also accused of concealing assets, including a yacht and real estate property, also in other people's names.
Spain's National Court authorised his extradition to the US to face the charges on Wednesday morning.
In recent years, McAfee repeatedly claimed that there was a plot to get him - however the court said there was "no revealing evidence" that he was being prosecuted for political or ideological reasons, Spanish newspaper El Pais reported.
A prominent libertarian, engaging speaker and crypto enthusiast, McAfee still had the ability to make money. His latest brush with law enforcement was due to alleged tax evasion on his recent earnings.

I still doubt he committed suicide, he was such a self-centric man and loved himself so much that it is not possible for someone like him to commit such a sin. I think there is more to this story!
I still remember in 2017 when he predicted Bitcoin will reach 1 million. This man did have a good point of view and a very strong belief in Bitcoin.
Anyways adios McAfee! RIP!
