Singapore-based Bitcoin exchange platform First Meta’s 28 year old CEO Autumn Radtke committed suicide.

Probably [old] news. Do you think she lost money on GOX?

This is a bit strange but I see a suicide disclaimer

[UPDATE: Tech in Asia has updated the article to emphasize that suicide is only suggested and not certain] - See more at: http://newswatch.us/28-year-old-ceo-of-bitcoin-exchange-dead-after-possible-suicide/#sthash.QQzK4isg.dpuf

Assuming Yes then its possible that she did but considering that shes a CEO of a bitcoin company highly unlikely she stayed on the Gox Fiasco most of the users here knew about their shenanigans a while back and only left enough bitcoins to play the exchanges.

Doesn't seem like the type to me

For the argument of a planned murder and abduction for her assets well that does scare me a little
$5 dollar method to get the coins

Believing in Bitcoins and it's ability to change the world

RIP
Lost money on GOX?
I'm sorry for her family, and what about the customers funds?

I think it's rather tasteless to ask whether she lost money on Gox. The first comment below that article also makes me wanna puke, I never get used to how heartless people can be in their anonymity on the internet. This is a young woman who has lost her life, maybe it was suicide or maybe it wasn't, but I don't think it's something to make fun of or jokes about.

Her death may have nothing to do with bitcoins, it's just a reporter trick to get you to read the article.

You're so predictable, I can clearly see you get some sort of kick out of antagonizing people and trying to push people's buttons. Seems kinda childish to me though, but whatever makes you happy. I'm curious however what 'sncr' means here.

Didn't you read? They aren't sure if it was suicide.

Last month there was a series of suicides in financial companies. I wonder if there's a connection.
