He's in for a treat if he were to be extradited, and I guess he no longer wants to be imprisoned for his tax crimes and just want to literally go out and evade the sentence. Perhaps it is also out of frustration that he was left in the dust after he was charged for tax evasion by some of his friends that he also helped along the way. John McAfee is nowhere near likeable after the pump and dumps that he helped orchestrate, though to be fair he helped shape the scene and helped us recognize some of its flaws, resulting to the maturity of the cryptocurrency market.
RIP.

That is sad. He had gone quite on the wrong trail for quite a while... even possibly implied in the killing of a man in Belize - never confirmed - and that ended up with him on legal trouble, not that he did not deserve to be in trouble with the law. It is of bad taste to speak just badly of a deceased, even if he scammed people, so let´s just say that he was an excellent entrepreneur and manager, even if his personal life was not precisely a role model.
His life is now ended, yet the annoying and persisting spam of his antivirus (your subscription has expired, would you like to renew?) poping up in millions of computers shall remain.

Yeah Epstein killed himself too........ I don't know enough about this case. High profile people committing suicide conveniently tends to be odd.
Some people can't just admit the fact that karma has caught up with them. Sometimes they get blinded with all the money and power, and they think that no one can touch them. Then the day of reckoning comes and these people will be caught unaware. I am glad that tens of thousands of cryptocurrency users who were conned by John McAfee and lost all of their savings got some justice finally. And further, I hope those Mt Gox users who lost their life savings in 2014 due to scams by Mark Karpelès will also be able to get justice soon.

Shocker how people who do horrible things after living a life of luxury might not want to live in a prison for the rest of their lives, right? I mean, we should build a bunch of tin foil hat crazy conspiracy theories about it instead of looking at it from the most likely and least insane point of view. Because the conspiracy theories are definitely more probable than Occam's razor.

Epstein I could understand--he was in for sex crimes and had already had a taste of how jail is, and he probably knew it was going to be hell on earth....or he could have been murdered. McAfee, though? I think his suicide is real. Even hardened criminals kill themselves behind bars; a guy who was used to living like a king having his freedom taken away and facing the rest of his life inside a prison cell--and being as old as he was--might easily kill himself rather than face that. I never followed McAfee's story and thus didn't know he was even in prison until now. It's sad that he was in there for tax evasion, that's my opinion. Maybe he did some other bad shit in his life, but I think they Al Capone'd him. Sad.

Source: https://u.today/breaking-antivirus-pioneer-john-mcafee-commits-suicideRest in peace ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) He has been an influential person at one time and was living his life according to him but then suddenly he turned the stones against him like shilling out the scam and promoting scam coins for which he and his bodyguard was charged for $13 million crypto scam.He targeted the twitter audience for shitcoins investment and then face charges for this and jail.Personally I am not happy not sorrow for his loss as he was one who don't matters now to the Crypto community.Who knows the conspiracies behind such suicide and interrogation will not last long.

It was a long time coming. I do believe that it may or may not be a suicide but this guy had his demons, it is really not something I would be shocked to learn if it was definitely suicide. He also had others thorn up his place and look for stuff, he even had assassination attempts on his life so I wouldn't be shocked if it wasn't suicide as well, either seem like a possibility. At the end of the day dude is gone and it is really a shame that it ended this way.
I didn't like the guy and first time hear about him was on ICO period and I disliked him because he was promoting shitcoins for money, all of his possessions were taken so he used his name as an influencer and I get it, I would do the same if I was offered money when I had none.
However just because I can understand, doesn't mean I agree and he hurt many people in crypto community, yet that still doesn't mean he deserved an end like this.

Those tweets of his were pointing that he knew that there are those that were trying to catch him. Suicide or not, he had made his life colorful. But the most unforgettable moments that he had was when he made a daily run for the shill of the day and whatever altcoin pays him his demand, he's going to tweet it and everyone in the herd follows him. That's not really new as what Elon Musk did these days. We may not like him with that attitude but he's known for his craft as one of the pioneers in anti-virus and he has made his company well known. Rest in peace John.

The conspiracy saga continues... one of my first thoughts when I saw the news about McAfee's death! His life was crazy, at least from all the things I read about him and saw in his tweets, I even watched some documentaries about his life! I guess it's hard to understand his behavior and his wars... in his head and around! For me, it's hard making a difference what was real and unreal in his stories...
Well, in my opinion, he went in his style! 75 years is not a little... and as I saw above "his life was colorful"... I can't add anything more on that! R.I.P. John...

maybe we should be saddened by the death of MCAfee because he was one of the ones who contributed to the development of this cryptocurrency, we can see from his tweets, even though sometimes the controversy and maybe the huge tax obligations make him commit violations of government laws

An image of a giant Q was posted on John McAfee's instagram account after his death. Which could mean John McAfee was Q of QAnon fame. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fpbs.twimg.com%2Fmedia%2FE4mPi3lXEAMnDYS%3Fformat%3Djpg%26name%3Dsmall&t=662&c=7vsE8TynmbOYcw) .... I don't know much about him aside from mcafee antivirus. There could be a massive amount of history and information relating to John McAfee and his battle against the deep state we'll never know about if he was indeed Q of QAnon. Julian Assange and Edward Snowden both have stories that are well known and publicized. I would be interested to know what John McAfee's story is. It seems McAfee is more hated than either Assange or Snowden. He must have done something to earn that.

He was a influencer in the cryptospace during the days of previous bull market. By the time he promoted various scam as well as potential projects. He was one of the personality who had his entry into cryptocurrency investment during the very beginning days. When money has been the primary thing people automatically get into unwanted things that affect their reputation and McAfee is an example of it.

McAfee entered the cryptocurrency market quite late (if I remember correctly, either in 2016 or 2017). And he was not ideologically motivated about cryptocurrency during those early days. For him, cryptocurrency was just another weapon where he could scam people and make money. He charged the new projects $105,000 for each tweet he posted to support them from his official Twitter account. From these tweets alone he made tends of millions of USD (and his followers lost hundreds of millions of USD of their savings).

For him, cryptocurrency was just another weapon where he could scam people and make money.
I basically knew nothing about Mcafee until watching some news stories after his death, both old and new, and I totally believe what you said--the guy was obviously crazy, and that's putting it kindly. If I were to put it unkindly, I'd probably say that he was evil (assuming the allegations of murder, rape, and everything else he was accused of were true). From the interviews from him I've seen, I could see himself committing suicide simply to make people talk about it. I don't think there was a conspiracy like there may have been with J. Epstein's death, but who knows. Luckily, neither one of these assholes was inextricably linked to bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency. Sure, Mcafee may have owned bitcoin before, but he wasn't exactly an ambassador for it. Thank the stars for that, because bitcoin really doesn't need another media-driven black eye right now to turn the public (and perhaps the government) against it. Edit: Well, I guess his name was more entwined with bitcoin than I'd realized after watching this Youtube video. As I said, I barely knew anything about the guy before now--and the more I learn about him and his life, the more criminally insane he appears to have been.

Actually, it is not clear whether he committed suicide. Because there is no proof about it yet. Maybe he wanted to commit suicide when he heard that he was going to be taken to the USA again. Or maybe, someone planned to kill him and did it.
And speaking of that, I found this source…. Link: https://www.businessinsider.com/john-mcafee-instagram-deleted-following-q-post-after-death-2021-6However, Instagram deleted his post and account immediately. Maybe someone had full access to John McAfee’s official Instagram and made that cryptic “Q” post.

He's in for a treat if he were to be extradited, and I guess he no longer wants to be imprisoned for his tax crimes and just want to literally go out and evade the sentence. Perhaps it is also out of frustration that he was left in the dust after he was charged for tax evasion by some of his friends that he also helped along the way. John McAfee is nowhere near likeable after the pump and dumps that he helped orchestrate, though to be fair he helped shape the scene and helped us recognize some of its flaws, resulting to the maturity of the cryptocurrency market.
RIP.
Even if you are thinking about tax crimes you always have a way p Actually, it is not clear whether he committed suicide. Because there is no proof about it yet. Maybe he wanted to commit suicide when he heard that he was going to be taken to the USA again. Or maybe, someone planned to kill him and did it.
That's a probability in my opinion, we know that this kind of thing is happening in the world, organizations neutralizing targets and making it look like a suicide. Remember the Epstein fiasco, many believe including me that it was orchestrated because he plans to squeal on powerful people. Maybe this is the same for McAfee. This is extremely sad , one should not do something like this since their life influences many people from their family and even if he had no way out, he could have for sure done something. This is never the case . I hope his family is better. What am worried about is "if the social media played a sad role in this" ( we know how his image was therefore people always criticized him , it should have definitely been a hard thing for him to read ) Actually, it is not clear whether he committed suicide. Because there is no proof about it yet. Maybe he wanted to commit suicide when he heard that he was going to be taken to the USA again. Or maybe, someone planned to kill him and did it.
There is no one answer but I hope whatsoever happened can be out in the public and may the people involved are taken care of. What he did was definately wrong but there is no need to hold him accountable now. I do think someone definitely killed him because he was just facing 5 years in prison. Which is not much.
