Bitcoin holders are frequently encountering violent crimes, with over 80 million user information leaked.

[Chain News] PANews August 11 news, SatoshiLabs founder Alena Vranova warned that wrench attacks, personal attacks, and kidnapping incidents targeting Bitcoin and Crypto Assets holders are increasing. "Every week, at least one Bitcoin holder in the world is kidnapped, tortured, extorted, and sometimes even faces more serious consequences." She warned that even small Crypto Assets investors could become targets of violent criminals. "It seems like a problem only Bitcoin OG investors would encounter, but that is not the case. We have seen people kidnapped for Crypto Assets worth $6,000, and we have seen people murdered for Crypto Assets worth $50,000." "Currently, the identification information of over 80 million Bitcoin holders and Crypto Assets users has been leaked online; among them, 2.2 million contain home addresses." She added that these attacks are related to Bitcoin prices and that the frequency of attacks rises during a bull run.

Physical layer security is more deadly than 0-day vulnerabilities; on-chain data is a double-edged sword.
