Millions in Bitcoin Vanish After ASOS Co-Founder's Death

0:00On April 29th, Quentin Griffiths, the 58-year-old co-founder of ASOS, fell to his death from a 17th floor balcony in Pattaya, Thailand, on February 9th. Taya authorities ruled it an accident with no foul play, but now nearly $4 million in Bitcoin has vanished from his wallet right after he died. He'd been tangled in a fraud case, convicted last October of scamming around 500,000 pounds through a company he shared with his. X-Wife, Poi Krings, and Thanakun. Sentenced to 18 months in prison, he appealed to stay free and had a key meeting lined up with her lawyers just two days before the fall. His family flew to Thailand to handle his affairs and spotted the crypto-missing, transferred out in three chunks soon after his passing. His oldest son, Joel, 29, reported the theft six weeks later, sparking a police probe into who had wallet access. Joel's facing questions himself in a heated custody fight over the kids he shared with Poi. He wants them raised in the UK while she insists on keeping them in Thailand.
