The mystery surrounding the events that led to the loss of $190 Million in cryptocurrencies at the QuadrigaCX has led to multiple theories as to what might have happened at the exchange. Just days ago the CEO of Coinbase, Brian Armstrong, shared what his team thought had happened at the exchange.
At the core of Coinbase’s explanation of events, was that a June 2017 bug at QuadrigaCX was the beginning of all their woes. The multi-million bug triggered a sequence of actions by the management at QuadrigaCX that resulted in them attempting to trade the exchange out of the financial ‘hole’ caused by the bug. What the team at QuadrigaCX did not anticipate, is the now famous crypto bear market that added more problems and had them operating at a fraction of what was initially in their cold storage. With the untimely death of their CEO, management then allowed the firm to cut losses and declare that the funds were lost.
