Mircea Popescu Wikipedia and Biography

Mircea Popescu (1980-2021) is a Romanian national and noted Bitcoin maximalist who promised to dump over one million bitcoins if block sizes were adjusted. He died in 2021 while swimming in Costa Rica.

Mircea Popescu Cause of Death

Mircea Popescu, 41, drowned after going for a swim at 8.30 a.m. in the Playa Hermosa resort, which is noted for its enormous waves on its beaches and is a surfing mecca.
Popescu was “blown away by the current” and drowned, according to the police.
Popescu was most known for his multiplatform and forum blogging about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

His statements, however, were frequently denounced as fascist, racist, and misogynistic.
Many people thought he was one of the wealthiest bitcoin investors, with the Independent putting his fortune at more than £1.4 billion.
However, unconfirmed online speculations indicate that his family is unable to access his Bitcoin addresses, where he is said to have kept a million Bitcoins.

Those tokens would have been lost if the billionaire had not established arrangements for others to have access to his wallets.

It comes after the death of software mogul John McAfee, who was found hanged in a Barcelona jail last week and was thought to have huge bitcoin holdings.

Alexander Mardar said: “It looks like that with the deaths of Mircea Popescu and John McAfee a significant amount of $BTC might be lost forever.”

Former CoinDesk editor-in-chief Pete Rizzo said Popescu was also an antagonist of other prominent figures in the early years of bitcoin.

Following reports of his death, Mr Rizzo tweeted: “Mircea will endure as one of bitcoin’s most vilified figures and inarguably one of its greatest philosophers.”
