A moment of silence for Gerald Cotten. We lost a true Bitcoin hero today.
I've used Quadrigacx since Gerry launched in 2014. Despite some heavily publicized unavoidable delays over the years, it has been by far my favorite exchange and the only one I trust particularly because of Gerald.
He was a true Bitcoin believer from the beginning and was more intent on helping people learn about Bitcoin than to make a buck. A rare breed these days. He was also the first person to tell me about Bitcoin.
They recently won a 22m lawsuit against CIBC(big cad bank) who was holding our funds hostage for several months as Quadriga and Gerald largely took the blame. Quadriga has always paid out through thick and thin.
This man died fighting for Bitcoin and will be greatly missed in the Bitcoin community and especially in Canada.
Edit: People have given him alot of crap over the years including me with regards to delays etc. I'm so sorry for that, you were the rare honest type.
RIP Gerald
