Former BCB Group CEO and current Greater Things CEO, Oliver von Landsberg-Sadie, and his family were victims of a knife-point robbery at their home in Maidenhead, Berkshire, on April 2. According to Foresight News, four assailants tied up the family and demanded cryptocurrency wallet keys.

Oliver von Landsberg-Sadie reported that the robbers were specifically targeting cryptocurrency assets, showing no interest in the Aston Martin parked in the driveway. As he did not possess any cryptocurrency, the thieves ultimately stole cash, silverware, and jewelry. Thames Valley Police are currently investigating the incident.

Following the robbery, Oliver issued a warning to founders, CEOs, and public figures in the cryptocurrency industry, urging them to be vigilant against organized and targeted crimes and to enhance personal security measures.
