These incidents have generated concern both in the crypto community and among authorities. On May 13, 2025, three hooded individuals attempted to kidnap the daughter of Pierre Noizat, a pioneer of the sector, in the XI district of Paris. The attempt was thwarted thanks to the intervention of a merchant who used a fire extinguisher to scare off the attackers, who fled in a van. This incident, captured on video by a neighbor and widely circulated on social media, has contributed to the growing perception of insecurity in France. This case adds to other recent attacks, such as the kidnapping of an investor's father, who was released showing signs of torture after a ransom demand of four million euros, and the abduction of Ledger co-founder David Balland in January. Authorities have identified a pattern in these crimes, inspired by criminal tactics from Latin America and Eastern Europe. In light of this growing threat, Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau will convene the sector to establish security measures and identify those responsible, even if they act from abroad.
These events underscore the need to strengthen security in the crypto ecosystem and to implement measures that protect sector actors against physical and digital threats.#Binance ,#BTC ,#ETH ,#bnb ,$ETH ,$BNB ,$BTC
