The finance world has been rocked by the sudden and unexpected death of a young crypto founder at the age of just 30.

Tiantian Kullander, the co-founder of Hong Kong-based digital asset company Amber Group, died in his sleep on November 23, with the news confirmed on the company’s website “with the deepest sadness and a heavy heart”.

Kullander, known affectionately as “TT,” launched Amber in 2017 with a group of finance insiders, including former Goldman Sachs Group and Morgan Stanley workers.

Before that, he worked as a trader at both finance giants, and in 2019 earned a coveted spot on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list, which recognizes the most talented ​​emerging entrepreneurs and leaders.

Earlier this year, the start-up reached a staggering $3 billion valuation after scoring a $200 million funding round.

Earlier this month, it was revealed the company was in the process of raising around $100 million, with the firm describing him as “instrumental to the founding of Amber and a pillar of our success.”

I think more of these other crypto currency outfits will either go bankrupt or these owners will meet untimely deaths, throw in a crash and bam CBDC will rule all.

I did a search on how many cryptocurrency CEOs have died in 2022 and looks like doing a quick search 22 to date more than from 2010-2021 in terms of deaths per year.

SUDS (Sudden Unexpected Death Syndrome)

That's what I call it, too.

I am certainly not unexpectedly surprised by Mr. Kullander’s inexplicable unexpected death. Quite the contrary.

“Unexpectedly dead” is kind of weird phasing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yes it is... but what it tells you is that there are so many young people keeling over these days, it’s not ‘shocking’ anymore... it’s just well, ‘unexpected’.

For quite a while now. Just Google it and also you can search for it on youtube. Try dollar crypto us crypto etc. I’ve read a few articles and seen a couple of YouTube videos on it. This is actually been going on for a few years but it’s really, really ramped up the last few months. In fact, the FTX debacle may be a lot of backroom high jinks to damage other cryptos in preparation for the introduction of the US crypto.
