customers of the bankrupt Bitcoin exchange, QuadrigaCX can draw new hope. As the crypto-Blog zerononcense wants to have found out, there is a hot lead to almost 650,000 for ETH-Token, in force since the death of the stock market founder Cotten as lost. Apparently, this was not mounted, unlike originally assumed, the deposits of its customers to one or more Cold Wallets, but in the case of the competition held in custody. In particular, it is that the Bitcoin exchanges Kraken, Bitfinex and Poloniex. The transparency of the Ethereum-a Blockchain allowed for the Tracking of larger Ether-transactions on Depot and Hot Wallets that should have made Gerry Cotten.

Unique tracks

Accordingly, the following addresses can be clearly assigned to QuadrigaCX:

0x0ee4e2d09aec35bdf08083b649033ac0a41aa75e0xd72709b353ded6c8068cc78988613587a4cae8de0xb6aac3b56ff818496b747ea57fcbe42a9aae6218 (current Hot Wallet)0x027beefcbad782faf69fad12dee97ed894c68549 (former Hot Wallet)0x45cab8d124fce8663581172c614f2ee08d01d48e0x696dd748a2edd9692ed93bd592dd2f293483eada0x0247bc4e03142079cfa2e3daf500722ed0f9a6b20xd543154fb94528c4fc54b9c27128c2d86c6322be0x67fc93fd01a15d9fb02a80d0ae6207fb45625be40xb90a82ec61627885eab72f4253939285ba40c91d0x79855af491352646e73bd12d7b92d6c814e71b4c0x57b727dc48b5d9261958e0fb9f94fa02dc328bf6

So hiked up about a thousand ETH of the QuadrigaCX Hot Wallet (3.) on Depot addresses, as well as Hot Wallets in the case of Bitfinex, Poloniex, and octopus. Overall, the Ethereum distributed Token according to the zero noncence as follows:

Btifinex: 239.240 Ether (about 85 million US dollars at that time)Kraken: 84.248 Ether (about 16 million US dollars)Poloniex: 326.220 Ether (about 27 million US-Dollar)

The watch is 115,000 affected investors now have reason to hope, at least a portion of your money back. Finally, the fact that Cotten the customer held funds, apparently, not to Cold Wallets, but on other Exchanges, that not he, but the exchanges can provide access to the Funds means. Say: The search for the Private Keys of a dead man has no need, apparently. The suspicion that it was the Causa QuadrigaCX an Inside Job, is not substantiated by the results of the investigation. Likewise, they suggest that Cottens widow lied in your last Affidavit.

the exchanges on the train now. It is your task, the affected funds to track. These are, of course, in the custodian Accounts. Instead, they have long since found their way to the Hot Wallets of the respective exchanges; and a common operation in cryptographic exchanges. Since the Exchanges Withdrawal requests of the customers handle their Hot Wallets, are distributed to the funds of the QuadrigaCX customers in all directions.

For information, contributing to the finding of the lost Funds, has suspended Kraken-founder, Jesse Powell, now a total of 100,000 US dollars reward.

the altruism that drives the exchange head is less likely than the fact that the investigators in the Case of the Quadriga, as well as the auditors from Ernst and Young, to judge claims on the stock exchanges. Compared with the 16 million dollars that will be in the Kraken gone, the Powell offered a reward, then not so generous.
