🚨 Crypto Is Going Physical, And It’s Getting Scary
Early this morning, David Prinçay, CEO of Binance France, had his home targeted in a chilling attack.
Here’s what happened 👇
Around 7 a.m., three masked men forced their way into an apartment building.
They broke into the wrong apartment first, reportedly searching for Prinçay’s home.
When they finally reached his unit, he and his family weren’t there.
The attackers stole two mobile phones and fled.
👉 Prinçay and his family are safe and unharmed.
But this wasn’t random, and it’s not the first.
🇫🇷 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 Méreau.
The details were horrifying:
💰 A €10 million crypto ransom was demanded.
✂️ One of his fingers was severed to force payment.
🚓 He was eventually rescued by French police after a partial ransom was sent.
The message is clear ⚠️
Crypto wealth doesn’t 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.
🔐 Stay aware. Stay private.
Because in this new era, security isn’t just digital anymore.
