The QuadrigaCX cryptocurrency exchange says it can't access some $190 million in bitcoin and other funds after its founder and CEO, Gerald Cotten, died at age 30 — without sharing the password for his encrypted laptop.

Cotten was "the sole officer and director" of the Canadian cryptocurrency exchange when he died, said his widow, Jennifer Robertson, in an affidavit that is part of the company's request for court assistance as it seeks protection from its creditors.

 

Heh. Oh, the widow knows all right. She knows that password and exactly how to access that 190 Million. But she is sitting pretty - avoiding the creditors until the statue of limitations expires and they cannot claim on the estate.
