John McAfee is believed to have died in Catalan prison in an hour after the Spanish Supreme Court approved his extradition to the United States for tax evasion. He is considered a crypto expert after entering the room.
McAfee, known for his high-class lifestyle, once said in 2017 that he would feed himself member if Bitcoin doesn’t hit the $ 1 million mark by the end of 2020. Although McAfee was previously a major proponent of the world’s largest cryptocurrency, it has started changing its minds closer to the deadline. , it is “worthless coin. “
With his wealth and status, McAfee claims to keep the hidden information secret. His social media posts, in turn, became the subject of intense discussion and controversy. He even claimed to know Satoshi Nakamoto’s identity and threatened to divulge it.
On a more sinister level, he even claimed to have information about corruption in the government. This, he said, was the real reason authorities tried to arrest him, contrary to the widely publicized tax evasion charges.
I have collected records of corruption in governments. For the first time I mention the name and the specifics. I start with a corrupt CIA agent and two Bahamian officials. Til today. If I were arrested or disappeared, more than 31 copies of the indictment would be given to the press.

His life is a jumble of mysteries, rumors and accusations, and his suicidal death raises the question of whether official reports can be trusted. .
McAfee has been detained at the Penitenciari Brians 2 Center in Barcelona since October 2020 after the US charged him with tax evasion after allegedly failing to report millions of dollars in income. He was arrested by Spanish police while trying to board a flight from Barcelona to Istanbul.
In 2018, McAfee announced that it was charging $ 105,000 for every tweet it posted promoting a crypto project. Given its impact on the industry, this is a price many are willing to pay.
However, investigators said McAfee and his team had been held responsible for running the pumping and dumping programs and were trying to charge him with securities fraud and money laundering.
“The cryptocurrencies and tokens it supports include Verge, Electroneum, Burstcoin, Dogecoin and Tron.”
The SEC claims that he paid over $ 23 million in cryptocurrency to promote an Initial Coin Offering (ICO).
Regarding separate criminal charges, the Justice Department pointed out that McAfee evaded taxes and failed to file tax returns between 2014 and 2018. It also claims McAfee tried to evade the IRS by concealing assets such as property and a yacht on someone else’s behalf.
“John McAfee has made millions in crypto advertising, consulting, making pledges, and selling the rights to his life story for a documentary.”
As a man at the center of much controversy, it is difficult to filter fact from fiction.
However, comments on his imprisonment in Barcelona, McAfee said he had no intention of committing suicide.
I am satisfied here. I have friends.
Enjoy your meal. All is well.
You know it’s not my fault if I hang myself like Epstein.

Things could change in the eight months since that tweet. However, theories about his death have increased since news of his suicide broke yesterday.
In the past, McAfee even talked about the Deep State and how it is negatively affecting people’s lives without fear of retaliation.
“Is there a deep state? That’s right. Can we fire these people? Can the President fire you? Are not. It is designed in such a way that political parties and political interests cannot influence the Deep State. Do you understand the nightmare of the people in our situation? “
