A wave of shock has hit the crypto community after Konstantin “Kostya Kudo” Galish, a 32-year-old Ukrainian investor, was found dead inside his Lamborghini Urus in Kyiv. Authorities confirmed it was a self-inflicted gunshot wound, ruled as suicide.
The tragedy followed a $19 billion crypto market crash, with reports claiming Kostya lost around $60 million, part of which allegedly belonged to others.
Kostya Kudo was a well-known figure in Ukraine’s crypto space — co-founder of Cryptology Key, and an early backer of Solana and Avalanche. He was admired for his trading expertise and luxury lifestyle.
His sudden death has sparked widespread grief and renewed calls for mental health awareness in high-pressure trading environments. Many in the crypto world stress that while profits rise and fall, emotional well-being must never be overlooked.
