These Cajee brothers were just 20 and 17 year old kids. While they may have struck the proverbial goldmine with the exchange, it could wholly be possible that they themselves are a victim of the 5-dollar wrench attack.

The excuse for not investigating is also pretty weak. It has already been a few days and will be impossible to track if something untoward has happened to them. Watch for those proceeds ending up in some politician or powerful policeman's Swiss bank stash.

Never knew this before. risks that cannot be avoided and feared by all crypto traders. loss money because other people certainly unacceptable. and with a nominal of that size, I assume they are already big in their country? honestly i never heard that exchange name before. hope african friend there will get the best solution for their assets.

are they not even clarification or make press conference for that case ?


I never heard of the exchange too but there must be a lot of users from their country for them to profit $3.6B.

When victims are not found more than 24 hours, the chances of them getting found alive is pretty slim. It rarely happens that a victim will show up with just bruises and can go on with their lives after.  But this one has $3.6B, I don't think a criminal will let them go without a truckload of money.

Most of the users were early adopters of Bitcoin, and that's how they managed to own that many coins. BTW, the owners claim that their life is under threat. But I don't think that is the case. They have already fled to the United Kingdom, and may soon make an application for asylum claiming that their life is under threat. The claim that they were threatened is just an excuse to make their case strong before the asylum application. And given the circumstances, any chance of the UK government deporting back to South Africa looks slim.
