MakerDAO co-founder dies after tweets about CIA’s criminal activities

1:16 pm, November 1, 2022

MakerDAO co-founder Nikolay Musheghyan was found dead in Puerto Rico. The 29-year-old developer reportedly died last Friday after being pulled down by a sea current.

Mushenian’s mysterious death came a day after the publication of his incriminating tweets about the CIA and Mossad. «They [ЦРУ] are going to frame me with a laptop planted by my ex-spy girlfriend. They are going to torture me to death,» Mushenian said in a tweet.

Musheghian has repeatedly tweeted that he has received death threats. Although it is unclear what connection the developer had with the US CIA or the Israeli Mossad, the MakerDAO co-founder emphasized that he was considered a «threat to banking cartels.»

Rune Christensen, another co-founder of MakerDAO, reacted to Musheghian’s death. According to him, it was Nikolai who «was able to foresee the possibility of hacking smart contracts and invented a security-oriented approach to their development.»

It should be added that little is known about Musheghian in the cryptocurrency community. Publicly available information suggests that he made a significant contribution to the MakerDAO and BitShares blockchain projects. And six years ago, Musheghian also helped prevent a hacker attack that could have destroyed the MakerDAO protocol.

The UN recently stated that terrorist groups are increasingly using cryptocurrencies to finance their criminal activities. However, despite the ability of terrorists to quickly adapt to the «new rules of the game,» fiat currency and hawala, an informal method of transferring funds used mainly in the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, are still the predominant methods of terrorist financing.
