Crypto Bros Arrested Again in Hostage Scandal

Two self-proclaimed “crypto bros,” William Duplessie and John Woeltz, are under U.S. federal kidnapping charges. They reportedly abducted an Italian millionaire in Kentucky to steal his crypto passwords; earlier, a Swiss tourist was held at gunpoint during a drug-fueled party. Hostage victims accuse the duo of bragging ties to intelligence agencies. Both have pleaded not guilty.

Opinion: Extreme criminality raises a red flag—stronger vetting needed in crypto communities.

❓Does this shatter trust in influencers or reinforce caution?
