According to a report by Jinse Finance, Satoshi Labs founder Alena Vranova has warned that wrench attacks, physical assaults, and kidnappings targeting Bitcoin holders are on the rise, with perpetrators attempting to steal the private keys of cryptocurrency owners. “Every week, at least one Bitcoin user somewhere in the world is kidnapped, tortured, extorted, or sometimes faces even worse situations,” Vranova told the audience at the Baltic Honeybadger 2025 conference in Riga, Latvia. She added, “Problems that seem to affect only Bitcoin OGs are actually more widespread. We have seen people kidnapped for as little as $6,000 worth of cryptocurrency, and others murdered for $50,000 worth.” Vranova stated, “Currently, the identities of more than 80 million Bitcoin and crypto users have been leaked online; among them, 2.2 million include home addresses.”
