41 crypto kidnappings in France this year — are your crypto assets safe?
A tax official sold Mira database records for €800 each. Wallet addresses, holdings, identities — all exposed. This isn't random crime. These kidnappings showcase an organized approach to crypto crime, not random incidents.
Criminals cross-reference tax leaks with blockchain explorers. They identify specific high-value targets holding $BTC or $ETH , then strike. 41 cases in 3.5 months. 11 of 14 global physical attacks this year.
Waltio breach added 50k more users to the list. Over 5,000 doxxed already. $BTC privacy concerns are spiking for good reason — on-chain data meets real-world targeting.
BTC is in uptrend. Higher high at 78178 USDT resistance. Support sits at 73801. Bulls control via RSI and MACD, but this macro risk changes everything.
This underscores the importance of implementing robust privacy measures in crypto. Use CoinJoin, mixers, or self-custody without KYC links. What specific measures are you taking to ensure your crypto safety amidst these threats?

France has become the kidnapping capital of the crypto world.
And the numbers are so disturbing they don't feel real.
41 crypto holders kidnapped in France in just the first 3.5 months of 2026.
That's already past all of last year's total. In under 4 months.
Pavel Durov claims French tax officials sold the data that made it possible.
Authorities haven't confirmed it. But 41 families don't need a confirmation.
Here's the full picture most coverage is missing.
These aren't hacks. There's no malware. No phishing links. No seed phrase exploits.
These are wrench attacks.
Criminals who skip the keyboard and go straight to your door.
Beat the password out of you. Threaten your family. Take everything.
CertiK tracked 72 verified cases globally in 2025. $40.9M in losses. A 75% surge year over year.
And France alone accounted for 19 of those 72.
More than 2x the United States. In a country one-fifth its size.
In 2026, two-thirds of all global wrench attacks have happened in France.
Two-thirds. Of the entire world. One country.
Now here's the detail that should alarm every crypto holder regardless of where you live:
The targets have changed.
It's no longer just founders. No longer just whales.
Mid-level holders. Spouses. Children.
If you hold enough crypto to matter to a criminal you are a target.
And if a government database somewhere lists what you hold
They may already know your name.
The Clarity Act is building a compliance framework.
The GENIUS Act wants reserve transparency.
KYC and AML mandates require self-declaration globally.
Every regulation designed to legitimize crypto
creates a list.
And lists get leaked. Sold. Stolen.
Durov's accusation may or may not be proven.
But the 41 kidnappings in France are not an allegation.
They are a warning.
Crypto security is no longer a digital problem.
It's a front door problem.

New Trend in Crypto Crime: Physical Coercion Becomes the Main Threat
A disturbing incident in Tel Aviv has sent shockwaves through the crypto world — an investor with $600,000 in crypto was kidnapped and tortured until he gave up his wallet password. This terrifying tactic, known as a “wrench attack,” is now spreading globally.
Instead of hacking complex systems, criminals are realizing it’s easier to attack the person behind the wallet. No amount of cold storage, multi-sig protection, or encryption matters when physical force is used.
Experts warn that violent crypto thefts could surpass $4 billion this year, as criminals track wealthy users via social media before carrying out kidnappings and home invasions.
The message is clear — your safety and privacy are part of your crypto security:
Don’t flaunt your wealth online.
Keep your holdings private.
Consider professional custody or personal security if you manage large assets.
In crypto, the biggest vulnerability isn’t your wallet — it’s exposure. Stay discreet. Stay safe.

In 2025, about 60 "wrench attacks" incidents were reported in history, and the real data may be much higher.
The physical attack of the asset holder. This number is much higher than in 2024 (about 41) and 2021 (36), when the number of known wrench attacks was high. Although the actual number of wrench attacks is difficult to accurately count, the risk of victims is indeed increasing, or at least the public's awareness of such threats is increasing.
"The real number may be much higher than this. Many cases are only registered as ordinary robbery or burglary, and the elements of crypto assets are ignored; others have never been reported because of the victim's hesitation or doubts about the ability of law enforcement to handle encryption-related crimes."
