đš Crypto Is Going Physical, And Itâs Getting Scary
Early this morning, David Prinçay, CEO of Binance France, had his home targeted in a chilling attack.
Hereâs what happened đ
Around 7 a.m., three masked men forced their way into an apartment building.
They broke into the wrong apartment first, reportedly searching for Prinçayâs home.
When they finally reached his unit, he and his family werenât there.
The attackers stole two mobile phones and fled.
đ Prinçay and his family are safe and unharmed.
But this wasnât random, and itâs not the first.
đ«đ· France is seeing a disturbing rise in crypto-related physical crimes.
Back in January 2025, David Balland, co-founder of Ledger, was kidnapped from his home in MĂ©reau.
The details were horrifying:
đ° A âŹ10 million crypto ransom was demanded.
âïž One of his fingers was severed to force payment.
đ He was eventually rescued by French police after a partial ransom was sent.
The message is clear â ïž
Crypto wealth doesnât just attract hackers anymore.
It attracts real-world criminals.
In crypto, this has a name: the wrench attack when attackers skip code and go straight for the person.
đ Stay aware. Stay private.
Because in this new era, security isnât just digital anymore. #MarketRebound #STAYSAFU
