I swear, I never expected the matter to reach this level... A senior executive at BCB Group was targeted—along with his family—in an armed robbery at their home in the UK, and the thieves weren’t interested in expensive cars or gold; all they cared about was the keys to digital wallets!

It’s a somewhat strange story—four thieves entered the house with knives, tied up the family, and directly demanded crypto assets. The problem is that the person didn’t have any digital assets at home, so the incident ended with cash and silver being stolen. The British police are currently investigating the case.

More importantly, the man later warned every prominent figure in the cryptocurrency industry about crimes targeting them by organized criminal groups. The matter wasn’t limited to him—many others in the industry are being subjected to the same attempts. Personal protection and caution have become a necessity, not an option.
