🚨 2025 could become the most dangerous year in history for crypto owners!

According to a new report from #GalaxyDigital and analyst #AlexThorn , in just the first half of 2025, there have been more than 25 physical attacks targeting cryptocurrency users – nearly reaching the highest level recorded in 2018.

📈 The chart from glxyresearch (source from lopp) shows that extortion, kidnapping, and violence related to crypto are escalating globally, with the UAE, India, and France standing out as hotspots.

🧨 Some notable incidents:

January 2025: Co-founder of wallet #Ledger – #DavidBalland – was kidnapped along with his wife right at home, fortunately rescued.

France: A kidnapping of the daughter of a crypto entrepreneur was thwarted at the last minute – shocking public opinion.

⚖️ A response is gradually forming:

The French government has increased protection for prominent individuals in the crypto industry.

Some businesses are beginning to implement specialized insurance packages for digital asset owners.

There is a proposal to establish a "Bitcoin Mossad" – a task force to hunt criminals aimed at protecting the global community #hodler .

🔒 The era of crypto is no longer “anonymous and completely safe.” Physical security & personal key security are now more important than ever.
