John is one if the most popular and respected crypto person and His lost is a big lost for all of us,.

Well, I wouldn't take it that far. McAfee was a self-centered freak. Many people lost substantial amounts of money as a result of his manipulations.

Yup you might be right but one thing is true in what i said that he is one of the most popular person here .

and besides Manipulation losses is investors choice because they are not forced to invest , it is their own decision and risk.

But lets give the man Peace on his grave , i may have mentioning good things as i once trusted this person for years.

I'll count and credit his contribution as a bitcoin guy before he became a shiller.

But let it all be where it is and let him be at rest and I won't go that far too with a guy that's already gone.

Agreed , Maybe people are just giving their sympathy for the man because of His sudden death but the reality will always tell us what really happens .

Yet RIP to McAfee and His family and friends.

Extremely sad and unpleasant news. All the same, McAfee personified the image of the father of cryptocurrencies, a defender and fighter against Fiat and against the system.
It’s very unpleasant that this happened to him. I personally hope this is a very expensive re-enactment of death.

this is an expensive death , because this will give a big effect for the market and from the government , it may not reflect now but sooner surely it will.

Although McAfee's behavior is fairly bad in the crypto world with all the scams projects he promotes. But like any other human being,
McAfee also has a positive side that we must appreciate. One of them McAfee has proven to be one of the brave people in many media
trying to defend crypto and compare the bad banking system. So I'm quite sad to hear the news of his death, hopefully the crypto community
who was harmed by McAfee can forgive all his mistakes.

Sad and shocking this legend is gone. Part of me still hopes he will emerge saying "ha ha gotcha ya again fools" from his Moscow mansion.

But looks like party is over for John. Too bad he ended up in the position he couldn't do much besides taking his own life. Because he likely didn't had more options. Official assets gone, tons of evidence in the criminal case, little money for legal battles. Could've paid those lawyers with crypto though, why didn't he? He likely had a lot of it.

It is difficult to understand what needs to happen in the head of a completely successful person in order to leave this life on his own ... In any case, THIS person has earned great respect! He made much more than 99.999% of the world's population! It is a fact ! Rest in peace, man who gave so much to the world and people !!! RIP John McAfee
At least, he died with many people respecting him, although he is one person who has so many controversies. John gave color to crypto and he can be one of the influencer people for crypto.

I am curious if someone will access his wallet and use the coins to continue what John did before.

sorry my interest is indeed .
There's no official update or information about what's his situation. Most of the news that are coming up are all about conspiracies and theories if he really did suicide or got killed.

I cannot find any that information about his burial or cremation.
yeah same here i can't find anything about the progress that's why I tried to ask here .

this will be a forgotten case in the next following months and we must accept the reality that John's death is another proof that no one is above CIA .

The controversies started with this shocking death as he always stated that if he is found hanging then it would be murder and no one who knows him will believe that he is suicidal and now Edward Snowden came out and warned Julian Assange and said we might hear him dead inside the prison cell as well. The rumor mill has started on what really happened and we will not know what really happened as the government will bury the truth if they have a hand in his death.
There's always a shadow and hidden truth with those deaths.

But we'll never know if the government has something to do with it but it's interesting that he's tweeted those before his deaths. Maybe there's half truth on it.

Although, the truth will be hidden if not forever, for so long.

We never know if what's the real truth since he's gone and each individuals that will provide information still questionable if they'll going to the real truth behind it.

Let's move forward and let him rest, after this news regarding to his death there's many speculations that will take place, we don't have business on it so it's better to keep ypurself away.

Minding your own business and use your time to find good project to invest, that's more better..
It's hard to believe whether the souce will show such proof or opinion that's believable.

That's one thing for sure that will kept forever and it's going to be unknown whether he did a suicide or he's killed. We'll never know the truth unless there's a proof that will show what actually happened.

Like a surveillance camera but it can also be altered right?

I dont know its really a suicide or a conspiracy behinds. But i think he really suffered on the last of his life when i see his last tweet.
Tbh its sad to hear if he really do suicide.

If you think about how his life turns out, it's really disturbing. You have to put it in mind that no one wants to have a mess up life. two sides of stories but I strongly believe he didn't kill himself.


Agree, but the good point is he said that never regret it. I also believe its not a suicide, because he said he will never do it, but if it is, its must becaus cant be avoided anymore for him.

If he got extradition to the US and he will also die in the jail. I guess he knows about the risk and he thought that if his only choice.
I can imagine how many years he will stay in the jail when he got extradited to the US.
Im not getting surprise if he may feel frustrated caused by that. that's why he was doing a wrong thing by end his life in the jail.

That's his consequence after he was scamming a lot of people since a few years ago. I hope that so many influencer can learn a lot from this case.

I was shocked when I heard about this news yet I still pity him for what happened. Although he focused on shitcoins, I still find it too early for him to die. I pity him because he didn't achieve the things that he wants for his coins as well as the fame that he wants for his name. However, his name would still be remarkable because he still has contributed something to our latest technology.

I was quite shocked to hear this news. however, the figure of John McAfee is one of the things that is always covered in the world of cryptocurrencies. Well, I once tried his anti-virus, and it was quite satisfactory, even though I don't use it anymore. Yeah, but I think this is pretty big news for some parts of the region. Even I was quite surprised to see this news.

Although he once manipulated the market, but everyone in cryptocurrency knows John McAfee we all grieve, even so, he is a great creator and hacker, a hard supporter of blockchain technology. RIP John McAfee
he is the one from public figure that start shilling cryptocurrency to people around the world.  i am sure he is manipulating market , he just help any developers team to promote project based on his standarization. John Mc Afee have huge contribution to crypto market , so we can stand in current position.
i am still remember when john mc afee said about bitcoin price will reach $100k in 2020. since of this alot of people start give attention to crypto market and we growth alot then. alot coins get benefits from john mc afee , he was doing weekly report about project that supported by him. recognized or not he give huge contribution for this market.

Although John McAfee proved to be doing bad things, but I have to admit McAfee is one of the figures who made Bitcoin get a lot of attention.
So this news of his death makes me sad, because McAfee is indeed a popular figure in the crypto world. I know a lot of people who hate McAfee,
because he has promoted many project scams and harmed many people. But every human must have mistakes, so hopefully his death can be
a way for him to get forgiveness from many people.

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.   

Watching a lot of Hollywood movies sometimes gives a lot of hints maybe on how the justice system works not just in the US but worldwide. But I don't think he will be tortured or forced to suffer whatever that means. He will be extradited for tax charges and crypto fraud in the US and will spend the rest his life in prison. Spend his life in prison away from a normal life which I think is too much for him that he took his life so it can end abruptly. Depression creeps in and it will fuel your desire to end your life in an instant.

As you already said he was quite a controversial person in the crypto space because of his actions. He was a pioneer for crypto currencies way before elon musk and for that everyone in the crypto-space should be thankful. On the other hand, he did not shy away from openly and aggressively shilling crypto projects that he either owned or was associated with. He did that so oft that it did not have much effect anymore on the lasts projects he shilled. The charges of financial crimes against him were also partly crypto related so he really was one of us i guess and he was already 75 years old and lived a life that was probably very exciting. RIP

Whatever he was he was a clever fame hungry man. He tweeted that he would not kill himself, then killed himself. Knowing that the conspiracy theories will go on and on and hence his name will go on too. He was scared of going to the us and spending his remaining days in prison. He did kill himself imo but left it open so people speak of him.

Fame hungry maybe not really,,, I think he was already famous and in his older age he found a time and admiration for his golden era. I know he was a good man deep down just deeply troubled,,, not to forget all his unethical behavior for crypto (but at least he was honestly saying he was a shiller for money, so cannot really say he did not warn people).

May we look back on him kindly for what he did after all do for Bitcoin's awareness.

What you can do is to specualte but there's no sure assurance that evidence coming from the jail personnel is completely authentic.

Rest in Peace John, he'll be remembered not just for his virus protection software but also within the crypto space where he's active back then when the market still young.

Suicide or whatever happened to him, there's no way that he'll be able to tell something to confirmed.

No one really knows what happen, The only thing we know is he is dead and that's it. If his been poisoned or commit a suicide then it will remain an speculation. Im sure mainstream media will try to create a story out of this since its currently trending in the world of crypto.

He must have been affected by the social media discussions like the scams he did in the past. But you got to see how eccentric he is, he is strange and I can think how much privacy had he give up to the government when he still has the software company where NSA had to get in. I bet he was forced to sell it.

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.

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.

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!



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.

A sad news would still be a sad news. even if you are celebrating a person's death which for me I would find totally sick. Most of us know his contributions to the computing world, but also despise his actions in cryptospace. Nevertheless, he died a lonely man, in a Spanish cell, maybe contemplating about the actions he did most of his life. If none of us can mourn his death, let us at least show a bit of respect to the person. You will be more human if you show a little respect.

Very shocked to see this news that John McAfee has ended his life by suicide maybe this is because of the long agony that is not strong enough to cause frustration and choose a dead-end forever.
I know he is well known in cryptocurrency because of his shillings and even manipulating such a large market according to local news so this is a decision for me but for me this did not expect the founder of antivirus software to end tragically.

Maybe a lot of cheating before that so he's in jail and will be extradited to the US, so sad and more to end it.

RIP.

Whatever he was he was a clever fame hungry man. He tweeted that he would not kill himself, then killed himself. Knowing that the conspiracy theories will go on and on and hence his name will go on too. He was scared of going to the us and spending his remaining days in prison. He did kill himself imo but left it open so people speak of him.

McAfee had an amazing life of visionary, libertarian and crypto evangelist. He earned $6 billion, became an enemy of more or less all states in the world simply for saying uncomfortable things and lived his life to the fullest. I wonder if it was one of his pranks when he said not to believe the suicide version and then committed it. Or was he right?..

Because these few words are forcing me to think that America wanted to kill McAfee just because he was speaking against the government agencies.

Maybe or maybe not only God knows the truth, I'm sad that this happens to McAfee honestly he is a icon on his own and also a man who fought against government conspiracies, about the crypto part he doesn't know anything about blockchain he just believe that it's futuristic, R.I.P JOHN

Good riddance, and RIP John McAfee, we can't deny his contribution to the anti-virus community.

But we all know his role on the 2017 ICO craze, but I'm not going to bad mouth the guy because obviously he is gone, so out of respect to him.

He was eccentric and borderline genius, we really don't know if it is really a suicide because he is scheduled to be extradited to the US and maybe he was afraid of it.

He did a lot of damage to cryptocurrency by promoting various scams. The fact that he committed suicide doesn't erase the fact that he ruined the lives of hundreds of people and might have probably forced at least some of them to take their own lives. Also, his death doesn't mean that the case is closed. The money should be recovered from his bank accounts and distributed among the victims of his scam. On the antivirus sector, I agree. He made a lot of contributions to that sector, by keeping our computers safe from malware and trojans.

Oh wow this is sad,,, the newsweek report does say that the extradition was approved earlier in the same day though. I do not understand why he was not put under suicide watch knowing this decision was something he would not have liked at all.

Say what you will about him getting paid for shilling altcoins (maybe for survival) but he started out good when he talked about BTC. His outrageous remark of $1 Million per BTC by Dec. 2020 or he'll eat his d*ck definitely turned heads. Obviously, that didn't happen but it gained more attention for bitcoin during that time. RIP

have no idea if there are big people involved in the scams he did in the past like politicians or so. if he will reveal those names because he will be extradited, i think those big names have reason to have him killed.
This is just a mere speculations right? I think the news itself can be a factor of him doing such suicide. Being extradite is something shame and I know somehow Mcafee have some pride and dont want this. If ever your assumption is true, then probably he is being blackmailed but is there are reason for mcafee to be scared? Like somehow they will threat his family will be killed or something like that.

RIP to John, it's a sudden news we cannot deny that even he became a hype to so many shitcoin, he open the door of cryptocurrency to many well known personality even celebrity and part of that is John's legacy. I think he is in a deep situation and I don't believe it was suicide.

he once actually said he will not do what his father did in the past. His father commits suicide too. so given that he already said he won't be committing the same mistake, there's this theory again that it's almost like Epstein case too. i have no idea if there are big people involved in the scams he did in the past like politicians or so. if he will reveal those names because he will be extradited, i think those big names have reason to have him killed.

What a pity, and thank you for your input and strong comment - John mcAfee's.  He has been incredibly vocal in support of bitcoin and crypto throughout his life.  Still alone in jail for 75 years old, I remember mcAfee once had a bitcoin prediction of $500k, if that happens this year.  At least that was the only time his bitcoin prediction was correct.
If he really is dead.  I will bow my head to pray for him!  Not greatness but he is still worthy of respect.

I can't remember John McAfee doing anything good for the cryptocurrency sector. He tarnished the image through his countless scams and was partially responsible for the 2018 altcoin rout. And I don't understand this argument that McAfee is responsible for celebrities getting involved in cryptocurrency. IMO, there is no evidence available to say so. I regard him as someone who did immense and unrepairable harm to mainstream adoption of cryptocurrency. I don't know why some people still hold him with such high regard.

It is a pity that it happened. McAfee occasionally amused us with his sometimes silly jokes. He reminded me of a clown in cryptocurrency. Committing suicide has always been regarded as one of the worst possible solutions to a problem. This is just an escape from the problem, and especially negative attitude has always been on the part of the church.
McAfee hid from the US authorities for a long time, I think that by a series of his stupid actions he himself exacerbated the situation to such an extreme degree. Well, each of us has the right to choose and we are all responsible for our actions.

I think living all time on US jail is worse than dying I guess. Mcafee finish his agony already and make it quick by doing it by his own hands. Apparently this news is kinda buzz off to the crypto community as he was famous for lots of partnership and advisory he made during the time he still into crypto. Im still sadden by this news and defintiely will served as new fud in crypto market.
