BREAKING: Crypto Millionaire Kidnapped & Tortured in Manhattan
A chilling real-world crypto horror has unfolded in New York City. A 28-year-old Italian cryptocurrency millionaire was kidnapped and held captive for 17 days by two men who demanded access to his Bitcoin wallet.
The Setup:
Lured into a townhouse in SoHo under threats to his family’s safety, the victim was quickly overpowered. What followed was a nightmare—he was subjected to electric shocks, force-fed drugs, and threatened with death, including being thrown from a five-story building.
Despite the brutal ordeal, the victim managed to escape and alert authorities. The suspects—John Woeltz and William Duplessie—have since been arrested and are facing serious charges.
Why This Matters:
This case is a grim reminder that the dangers of crypto ownership aren’t confined to the internet. As digital assets gain value, real-world crimes targeting holders are becoming disturbingly common.
Your Takeaway:
Keep quiet about your crypto holdings.
Use cold wallets—don’t store everything online.
Never meet strangers alone to discuss crypto.
The line between the digital and physical world is disappearing. And with it, the risks are becoming all too real.
Stay vigilant. Stay private. Your crypto might be invisible—but you’re not.
