🚨 Crypto Crime Surge in 2025 – Stay Vigilant!
This year has seen a shocking rise in violent attacks targeting crypto investors, traders, and founders. We're not just talking digital theft — these are real-world threats: kidnappings, home invasions, physical assaults, and ransom demands, all linked to crypto holdings.
The co-founder of Ledger was kidnapped in Paris — attackers cut off his hand and demanded millions in crypto.
Amouranth, the streamer with a $20M BTC wallet, had to defend her home with gunfire after armed intruders stormed in yelling for crypto.
A Korean trader trying to sell his Lambo was abducted and abandoned in the Philippines.
A French CEO’s daughter fought off masked men trying to abduct her child.
One man’s father had his finger cut off on camera, with kidnappers demanding €5M in ransom.
These are just a few of 22+ physical "$5 wrench" attacks reported this year alone.
Criminals aren’t just hacking wallets anymore. They’re:
Tracking your social media
Targeting your family and home
Using fake buyers, uniforms, or meetings as traps
The bull market is back — but with it comes a new kind of danger. It’s no longer just about safeguarding your assets; it’s about protecting your identity, location, and loved ones.
🔒 Tips to stay safe:
Don’t flex your gains online
Keep a low profile
Strengthen your operational security (opsec)
Be cautious about who you meet and where
The new era of crypto rewards the discreet — and punishes the exposed.
Stay alert. Stay private. Stay safe.
