Lawyers for customers of an insolvent cryptocurrency exchange have asked the cops to exhume the body of company's founder Gerald Cotten, amidst efforts to recover about $190 million in Bitcoin that was locked in an online black hole after his death. The lawyers requested exhumation to be done no later than Spring 2020, citing decomposition concerns. Cotten died abruptly in Dec 2018 of complications related to Crohn's disease.
