John McAfee left his assets to none I guess. He never trust anyone, He never used the antivirus he made. He admitted it in some point. So I guess he never left that wealth also because of trust issue. His coin will be useless forever. Or if someone will discover all his secrets hidden in some vault, that includes all the keys that will lead an access to that. Just my opinion. Smiley

But I find him as an awesome guy. He is cool.

If that's the case then I feel pity for his family. Let's say that they have enough wealth to survive but Mcafee's coin isn't a small amount so it should've been helping his entire family in so many ways. That's actually one of the reasons why we're always advised to trust at least a single person about our personal funds and wallet keys so we'll know where our funds would go if unexpected things happen.

He is a rich man, he is also a smart person and he is a businessman.
I am not really sure about what he is doing to secure his asset. But, I am pretty sure that he has set or prepared all probabilities that will happen to him and set several ways to make his asset secured enough even he has died. He may have given it to his family or other people who are trusted to manage all his wealth.
It can be.Moreover, nowadays, there are also some features of the legacy to other people.

people like John McAfee will not waste his wealth if he dies someday (as is the current reality that he is dead). I am sure that the coins owned by Jhon McAfee will not just disappear, Jhon McAfee's wealth must have been passed on to someone or his family before he died.

None of his other family members were in talking terms with him at the time of his death. Even I have doubts on McAfee's relationship with his wife (Janice Dyson, married in 2013). Dyson is a former sex worker, and she came to contact with McAfee while she was still in the business. Dyson would claim that McAfee saved her from human traffickers, but I don't find much truth in her stories. McAfee never believed in any family responsibility. He has admitted that he fathered at least 50 children, to around two dozen different women. And he never paid a penny in maintenance to any of his offspring.

If we are to think about, the good people gone bad situation when it involves huge money/crypto. I don't think someone like McAfee will leave his asset to his lawyer or other people since Bitcoin is decentralized and every evidence to prove the BTC to be McAfee can be destroyed but if his children can send him a lovely message during fathers day celebration that McAfee have did the right thing which is not know to us before he dies

In other words a perfect father figure Tongue

His wife is probably set for life anyway because they had to have some cash in the house. That is of course if the IRS doesn't go after her because a person who inherits the estate also inherits debts.
It would be a funny story if a well known security expert would hold his wallet password written on a sticky note attached to his desk. It happens quite often in this profession.

always where there is very good intelligence it may do something unusual that can be done, so that it becomes something of an unconscious mindlessness. there will always be weaknesses in everyone regardless of circumstances and nature and we do not know what these weaknesses can happen and even do not realize it ourselves.

I agree that whenever there is an inheritance available it will usually also be followed by a debt owed. Moreover, his life is always with a job like that, so it's a natural thing that will happen, it's not unusual that rich people can usually have more debt than what they have

His wife can just claim that she doesn't have the private keys to access any of McAfee's cryptocurrency holdings. And as long as she doesn't convert the coins to fiat, no one will have any idea about whether she can access these coins or not. Even if she want to convert some of that to fiat, she can do it through various anonymous means. What complicates the matter further is that his wife is not a US citizen. So the US authorities may face a lot of issues in interrogating her. Recovering any remaining coins is a long shot, for now.

Man, how questionable everything is especially when reading in Twitter that apparently the guy left a note that he will never commit suicide. Heavy stuff, but may be it's all a conspiracy.
