Ah, you beat me to it while I was searching for the link to that thread.

Anyway, that's what happened, OP.  Personally, I couldn't stand TECSHARE but wouldn't have wished him an early death.  Frankly, having an opposing viewpoint on issues (like he provided) is important lest we have an echo chamber.  I don't think it was ever disclosed how he died, but I don't think he was old by any means--in his 30s or 40s perhaps. 

He was an asshole to me, but he was also an honest trader and had an extensive trading history and no scam accusations against him in the 10 years or so that he'd been a member of the forum.  You have to respect that.  Hate to say it, but I'd rather have him back on the forum than dead.

That sucks :( I wanted to know because my dad bought me a set of lockpicks off of him when I was little from his post where he sold them for BTC, years later I looked for his account to see the original post and he hadnt been active for a while. I didnt want to assume the worst.

According (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5319417.msg56422329#msg56422329) to someone who claimed to know him personally, he died from a stroke last year.

He also has a custom title, In memoriam that hopefully tells people like the OP that he is deceased.

Damn I missed this thread. Thanks OP for making the title specific as this.


I know many have hated the guy but somehow we feel that his death is really a sad event here in forum.

He was an asshole to me, but he was also an honest trader and had an extensive trading history and no scam accusations against him in the 10 years or so that he'd been a member of the forum.  You have to respect that.  Hate to say it, but I'd rather have him back on the forum than dead.
I witness couple of arguement with him but honestly, someone has to be lile that for a forum to have a debate in every topic and aspec of belief. We dont have same opinion about some stuff and having a clean discussion is always good here in forum. Me too, I somehow want to see his response to some post.

RIP - techshare hope you are at peace now.
