Bitcoin is able to level off around the $32k level where it remains at the time of writing, according to fresh news reports antivirus and crypto guru John McAfee was found dead in a Spanish prison and Dogecoin millionaire Contessoto has lost a lot of his shine.

John McAfee dies

The antivirus pioneer John McAfee who had just seen his extradition request to the US approved, was found dead in a Spanish prison a few hours ago. McAfee was a strong advocate for Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, even launching some coins of his own.

The US authorities wanted to arrest him after he failed to file taxes for four years despite earning millions in income between 2014 and 2018 from promoting cryptocurrencies. First press indications claim that he took his own life.

Diamond hands

Just like the New York Times, Yahoo Finance and Business Insider, we featured Dogecoin millionaire Glauber Contessoto about a month ago on these pages. The young man from Los Angeles had invested his livelihood in Dogecoin and saw his initial investment of $180k rise up to $2 million (even reaching a high of $3 million) when Dogecoin climbed from a cent in the beginning of the year to an all time high of 75 cents.

By now, Glauber is back in the world news, only this time it is mainly to ask whether he considers selling as Doge dropped to 17 cents earlier this week.

The famous Dogecoin fan refuses though and claims he has diamond hands above anything else. Funnily, he responded:

My intelligence level perfectly aligns with the current price of Dogecoin. 75 cents = ā€œGeniusā€, 17 cents = ā€œFucking idiotā€

Luckily for Glauber, Dogecoin has been steadily climbing back out of the rut and is once again trading for more than 20 cents today. Not too much wow anymore, but still a very nice result for the year so far.
