QuadrigaCX was one of Canada's largest cryptocurrency exchanges, providing a platform for trading various digital assets including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin. Despite its prominence in the Canadian crypto marketplace, QuadrigaCX faced operational difficulties following the reported death of its founder Gerald Cotten in December 2018. This event led to significant complications related to the accessibility of customer funds, as Cotten was reportedly the only one with access to the company's cold wallets where most of the funds were stored. In early 2019, the company ceased operations and filed for creditor protection, which was followed by numerous legal proceedings and investigations concerning the management and protection of customer assets. The website, which previously offered trading services, likely exists in a very different form now, primarily for legal updates or creditor information.
