Alina Vranova, the founder of Satoshilbs, warned of wrench attacks, physical attacks and kidnappings against Bitcoin (BTC) and Crypto holders in an attempt to steal her personal keys.
“Every week, there is a bitkinar, at least one in the world, who kidnaps, tortures, is taken out, and sometimes it is worse,” Vanova told Viewers at the Baltic Honeyibeder 2025 conference in Raga, Latvia.
He warned that small crypto investors may also be on the radar of violent criminals in search of a target. He said:
“Bitcoin seems to be only a problem for OGS, not really the case. We have seen kidnapping cases as a crypto of $ 6,000, and we have seen people murder for $ 50,000 in Crypto.”
Increase in wrench attacks against crypto holders is a disturbing tendency, in 2025 to double the record for doubling the worst year on records with physical attacks against bitcoiners, tracked on track to motivate personal security counselors from investors, developers and industry officials.
