From murders to kidnappings, it seems criminals are targetting Bitcoin hodlers these days. Now why is it that individuals are more careful with fiat than they are with crypto. This is money and more people (even crooks) are realizing that. I read this analysis of Bitcoin related crimes and think we should think of ways of keeping our crypto safe and our lives also. https://cryptoinfowatch.com/cryptocurrency-crimes-surge-as-industry-strives-for-greater-adoption/
Something like this was going to happen eventually, criminals are realizing that cryptocurrencies can be used to get away with their crimes and now they are realizing they can steal cryptocurrencies from their owners and very few if any police departments are going to take the victims of the crime seriously and even if they did they do not have the resources to prosecute them.
