Telegram's Founder Durov caused quite a stir with his tweet yesterday. He believes that the large-scale kidnappings targeting crypto holders in France since the beginning of this year are due to French tax officials selling data and leaks from tax databases. To be honest, 41 cases in less than 4 months is way too frequent—averaging over 10 per month, far exceeding other regions. The new wealthy crypto holders often don’t have the same security measures, massive social influence, or deterrent power as old money. Their assets are also easy to transfer and hard to recover, making Crypto Holders prime targets. In China, although there’s been heavy suppression of cryptocurrencies, personal safety is still relatively well-protected. Folks in other countries might want to keep a lower profile.
