It’s that time of the week again!
I think it’s funny how sometimes we get lost in the daily grind of life...
-
-
I feel like we get lost in the daily challenges we face and fixated on where we want to be, that we forget to take a step back and look at how far we’ve come!
-
-
Day by day we feel like nothing changes but when you look back you don’t even recognize the person you were!

I actually had this moment happen to me this past week! I jumped off a client call and legit could not believe what had come out of my mouth haha I legit felt like a real CPA
-
-
So take some time today to reflect on how far you’ve come but know for a fact that you’re not even getting started...
-
-
Now go crush your Monday! #tgim

Unbelievable how fast the next episode of my life has finished! Six amazing years spent at four universities. Lots of new friends, plenty of experiences, really good memories. I do like who I'm becoming.
Now it's time for a big adventure! Adulthood, I'm coming!

#Crypto #Exchange QuadrigaCX Missing $145 Mln After Death of Founder
Following the sudden death of its founder Gerry Cotten, #cryptocurrency#exchange QuadrigaCX is reportedly missing CA$190 million dollars ($145 million) in digital assets, Canadian news daily The Globe and Mail reports on Feb. 1
Citing a creditor protection filing from the Nova Scotia Supreme court, the Globe and Mail states that the firm has been unable to locate or access the #funds since Cotten passed on Dec. 9, leading to a liquidity crisis at the exchange. QuadrigaCX filed for creditor protection in compliance with the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA) on Feb. 1.
The exchange only has CA$375,000 ($286,000) in #cash, while it owes CA$260 million ($198,435,000) to its users
.
The exchange kept most its assets in offline storage systems called cold #wallets, which are secured by digital security keys in order to protect them from #hacking and theft. Cotten was solely responsible for the wallets and corresponding keys, which the company has been trying to find after his passing.
A filing from Ernst & Young reportedly states, “Quadriga was unable to access the cold wallets and/or discovered that the cold wallets contained minimal cryptocurrency units.” ‘Big Four’ #auditing firm Ernst & Young has been appointed as an independent third party to monitor the proceedings.
Per The Globe and Mail, Cotten mostly worked form his computer at home, which is encrypted. Cotten’s wife, Jennifer Robertson, reportedly stated in an affidavit, “I do not know the password or recovery key. Despite repeated and diligent searches, I have not been able to find them written down anywhere.” Robertson purportedly went so far as to hire a #cybersecurity expert to “hack into Gerry’s computers” to no avail.
Other exchange operators told The Globe and Mail that it was unusual for a single executive to control access to an exchange’s funds, as it would have made Cotten a target for kidnapping and extortion. Michael Gokturk, CEO Einstein Exchange in Vancouver, said, “It’s the equivalent of walking around with millions of dollars in cash on you at all times.”
