French crypto worker's family tied up in €40K home invasion

  • —Four masked attackers entered the home around 4 a.m. on Sept. 20 and bound the family
  • —The father, a crypto industry IT worker, was forced to transfer €40,000
  • —Over 40% of French incidents targeted a relative rather than the holder
  • —Chainalysis: violent attacks on holders worldwide netted over $30 million in H1
Why it matters: Customer data leaks are turning crypto holders into physical targets, not just victims of key theft.
