Sasseman died on July 3, 2011, and exactly 190 days later, on January 3, 2012, it was three years since the zero block of their Bitcohen project was mined. His death under mysterious circumstances left many questions unanswered. Along with him, the keys to the partner wallet, on which a million bitcoins were frozen forever, were also lost.

Earlier it became known that the investment company Finam is going to issue a bond for six months, the yield of which will depend on the Bitcoin rate. For this, the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) fund, created by BlackRock in 2023, was chosen. In the future, Finam also plans to launch a similar product, but already tied to Ethereum.
