here's one with a lot of rabbit holes

In a tweet posted on Tuesday, April 18th, Dr Alberto Solas from Clear Sky Recovery wrote: 'Matthew Mellon was scheduled to check-in on April 16th. We learned that he had died at his hotel on the 16th, prior to his check-in.

Prior to his death he was said to be three months sober and dating Kick Kennedy, 30, a model and daughter of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Her agent Christine Schott, who spoke to Kick after the news of Mellon’s death, said: 'He was sober and they were enjoying life. Then all of a sudden he apparently fell off the wagon'.

A source close to Mellon told DailyMail.com that the billionaire relapsed last Wednesday and made the decision to head to rehab in Mexico, stopping off in palm beach on the way to see his mother.

He then continued on the Dominican Republic before finally making his way to Cancun.

Initial reports claimed that the ex-husband of Jimmy Choo guru Tamara Mellon had died from a heart attack inside his rehab facility after taking a hallucinogenic treatment drug – but this was later dismissed by a representative for the Mellons who adjusted the family statement to make clear he died before and not in rehab.

A representative for Mellon issued a statement to the New York Post immediately after news of his death broke on the 16th and said: 'Billionaire Matthew Mellon, 53, died suddenly in Cancun, Mexico, where he was attending a drug rehabilitation facility'.

This statement was amended with no explanation on April 18th to say that Mellon died in Cancun 'where he was planning to check into a rehab facility for follow-up treatment'.

The circumstances of Mellon's hotel death are not yet clear.

According to a family friend, Mellon's family have since been unable to trace the fortune he made in crypto-currency and worry that it has 'disappeared'.

'Something weird has happened to all his crypto money and his family can't find it'.

His body is expected to be cremated.

A confidante of Mellon's New York art expert Stacy Engman, who was with the banking heir in Palm Beach before he took his private jet to the Mexico rehab facility, said: 'Matthew was so committed to sobriety, he was three months clean and doing so well.

'He had extensive travel plans and was expecting to go to Hong Kong after Mexico. My understanding was that it was just a check-up.

'He was literally drinking cups of tea and doing the whole holistic, herbal thing.

'I was very proud of his commitment. He was family to me and he was trying to be his best for all of us, with the brightest future ahead. Saying this is a tragic loss, is an understatement. He was a brilliant visionary.'

What's the value of the crypto currency missing?

Had to be a lot for someone to whack him for it?

He probably had a wallet, that only him had access to the keys, then it may be lost forever...
