Bitcoin pioneer Hal Finney, widely accredited as the number-two developer behind Satoshi Nakamoto on the world's most valuable cryptocurrency, has passed away following a five year battle with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Finney died on Thursday at the age of 58 after complications resulting from his condition and is to reportedly have his body cryogenically frozen and stored in the hope of one day being revived in the future.
