The Horror of Crypto in Manhattan: A Real-Life Nightmare Unfolds
A 28-year-old Italian crypto carrier arrived in New York City on May 6 - and disappeared.
What followed was straight out of a psychological thriller:
Kidnapped. Tortured. Electrocuted. Forced to smoke crack.
The victim was held for weeks by crypto investor John Woeltz, beaten, whipped, and thrown from the upstairs of a townhouse - all to access his Bitcoin wallet.
He refused to give up the password.
He finally escaped on Friday, marking the New York Police.
Woeltz is in custody. No bail.
This is not fiction. This is the new frontier of digital crime.
Private security firms report an increase in demand from crypto elites.
Stay low. Stay cool. Stay anonymous.
Because if they know you HODL, they might come for you.
