Although I don't like him and his passion of shilling shitcoins a lot but he somehow paved the way for celebrity involving cryptocurrency. RIP McAfee!

I am not really considering this from crypto point of view, all I can see here is a tragedy of a persons life, dude was not this insane person back in the day, he was a great guy and then he turned into this person. He was a troubled person, this guy worked for NASA (which is as hard as you can go as a profession in employee life if you do not own your company), worked for xerox as well and worked for lockheed too!

These are all huge companies and dude wasn't even 40 by that time and worked in 3 MAJOR companies thanks to his talents. He created his company, sold it and made bunch of money and then created a ton of startups with that money as well. This was when he was fine, then between belize things, underage girlfriend discussions and more and more and more stuff happened and we all know what type of person he became, it is a shame that such a wonderful life start had to end with something like this.

Maybe, he realized that he already lived his life to the fullest.
And to end what's about to come, is to just end his life.
He already left a legacy, when he developed this McAfee Anti-virus.
I guess, a lot of us grew up hearing this Anti-virus.
But the last phase of his life is somewhat troubled.
He had his reasons, so let him rest in peace.
Maybe, we can learn a thing or two from his colorful life.

My feelings for late John McAfee was neutral, I didn't love or hate him, though he was well known in the crypto space for shilling mostly shitcoins and in that process, some innocent individuals end up loosing money, but I never hated him for that, but I also didn't love him either.
To some extent, he of course has contributed to the growth of crypto currencies today, some people discovered and joined crypto through him and his tweets, even though almost if not 100 percent of all he did was for his own gain, but then we will still miss him, I will miss him, and I pray that by the mercy of God almighty, that his soul find rest in the bossom of our lord Jesus.. Amen.

RIP John McAfee
However, even though he often makes a controversial statement and sometimes it sounds ridiculous, he has been a person who influenced the world of Crypto. And also ideas and their involvement in various business worlds, of course, have given a lot of chance and also success. Everyone must not only have good but also weakness. But now, let's pray for him to get the best place.

And related to statements and issues that have done there, hopefully, there is a bright spot and continuation fair.

this news could be bad news for bitcoin, because Mcaffe is a well-known figure in the crypto currency world,
and one of the pioneers of crypto currency in the United States, and unfortunately he has a controversy, and finally he was imprisoned,
I don't know even though a few days ago he was still in prison. has a tweet and is always updated, reportedly there was a conspiracy in the death of Mcaffe.

Many people do not like John McAfe, but many people also follow his advice and were hoping bitcoin will rise to a million dollar as he promised to eat his d*ck if his projection and speculation about bitcoin did not happen. He has done his bit for himself and cryptocurrency, may his soul rest in peace!

He said before he was politically attacked, who knows. It may be true but no one will tell about that story now or even prove it.
Where could his Bitcoin stash be? He may have passed it to anyone years ago or it may be at his last will. I am a little curious how much could that be.
I said a lot of bad things about him in this forum but dying is different.
I wish he could rest in peace although taking your own life is not a good way.

Not sure what caused his death but I followed some discussions on Twitter and it is believed John McAfee predicted his death at the hands of the government and got a tattoo for it...someone confirm this .

Not to be insensitive about the topic but whatever happened RIP John McAfee,you have run your race.

John McAfee, the creator of the eponymous antivirus protection software, was found dead in his Spanish prison cell after an announcement earlier Wednesday that he would be extradited to the U.S. to face charges of financial crimes, the Associated Press reported.

Looks like the Clintons pulled another Epstein. I wasn't aware they had such far reach to prisons in Spain. Let me guess, it was ruled a suicide and no real investigation is being conducted. I am going to miss his Tweet, after Trump probably the second most funniest celebrity on Twitter. He did a lot for the crypto community and his antivirus software will likely be around.

Whatever the reason or the truth, behind his death, will be a mystery did someone killed him, or he kills himself because the Americans will bring him to America for trial, did someone do it, to stop him from speaking? we don't know, but what we have now might be because of him, we have a great run during his time in crypto, rest in peace John Mcafee.

The death of John McAfee gave a reason to reread his tweets https://twitter.com/officialmcafee for the past year. And I think that many of his tweets deserve to be quoted in everyday life. But regarding his death, I found his tweet from October 15, 2020, in which he writes: "I am content in here. I have friends. The food is good. All is well. Know that if I hang myself, a la Epstein, it will be no fault of mine." - https://twitter.com/officialmcafee/status/1316801215083225096 There is something to think about...

It's still a mystery why he hanged himself after the court statement, so indeed he wanted to prove that all will be seen with what he said, but on the other hand we were annoyed before him for being a propagandist in 2018 about bitcoin forecasting that will soaring, but history proves that John McAfee will be a part of crypto and can influence it.

The tweet is still a mystery what is meant by it is he not wrong? so this is unfair.

Once a man, twice a child!

What a sad end for John McAfee, a man who made few rich and many wrecked through his shilling of tokens. My take home from all that happened to him goes down to the vanity of man's life on earth. Once we close our eyes in death, we don't remember whatever that happens around us including our cryptos. Invariably, it simply means that at the end, we all shall bow to death and leave behind whatever wealth we acquire on earth. Without losing my thought pattern, I sincerely hope that McAfee left hits and access for his family to his crypto wallets, any way. Otherwise, his struggles will have been in vain

i was really sad when i read the news of the death of John Mcafee. As far as i know john is a very active crypto influencer in the year 2017 to 2019 when bitcoin hits its first all time high. From that year john was involved in many ICO project and shilling different coins in the market.

back then I was excited each time I read something about him inspiring projects, he always vocal with every

coin that he's going to hype, till the point that people realized that he's no longer helping the investors but

instead, he's helping those scammers to runaway with investors money. Sad to say that he ended up like this,

taking his own life instead of having a quite life away, he can't handle his situation and he find this solution to

escape from this problem.

bloomberg made it sound like it's very timely but the announcement of his extradition was actually more than a week ago before he took his life. he knew its coming.
how bad is American prison can be that he wanted to be in a Spanish cell that he'd rather kill himself you ask? i think its about his $23M tax which i guess he blamed himself. hope he gave his coins to his son.

I am really sorry to hear about the death of a colorful man whom I also considered very successful in many ways. As a meritorious entrepreneur, he paved many roads for others to easily enter. And I think his involvement with cryptocurrency has him many troubles than success. Poor John. I could not imagine a man like him who has had many comforts in life being jailed in that prison. I am sure then that he realized he made many mistakes and that redemption is beyond him, leading him to commit such an act.

perhaps being extradited to the US was a bad thing for him, so he sought death to end his life, saying goodbye to the father of the legendary anti-virus software and a saint Fomo of garbage projects for the period 2017~2020.

John McAfee was one of the most popular cryptocurrency influencers in the industry, he made his mark and gained huge popularity and followership, but it feels really bad to know that he ended up in a jail and had to take his own life. Its always better to keep ones hands clean. I pray he finds eternal peace and rest.

Anyway, McAfee left a mark in this life, and it will be remembered for a long time that he was at the origins of antivirus programs. And of course, no one will forget his promise to eat his dick if the price of bitcoin does not reach the level of $1 million by the end of 2020. And when the price of BTC reaches this milestone, the crypto community will remember John McAfee and his prophecy years after his death.

Can't forget what he did to the market in 2017.But he is undeniably an inspiration to many of today's crypto celebrities.

Inspiration to whom? Scammers? For me, John McAfee is at the same level as Ruja Ignatova (of the OneCoin scam) or the PlusToken scammers. Each and every action he undertook in 2017 had only one aim - to accumulate as much money as possible, by any means. He caused around $200 million in losses to cryptocurrency users. Apart from the scams in cryptocurrency sector, he is also accused in dozens of other crimes. While he was residing in Belize, he murdered one of his neighbors (Gregory Faull). Since Belize is such a corrupt country, he was never charged for his crimes. Live by crime.. die by crime.
