There is an ever-growing list here in Jameson Lopp's website:

It's a huge problem and we should never discuss our holding with anyone, just like nobody would ever go out shouting "I have 15 Million USD in the bank".
Totally agree. I always was very private about my crypto holdings. Many people doesnt even know I invest in crypto.
Saying "I have 15 million USD in the bank" is much safer than saying "I have 15 million USD in bitcoin".
Because nobody can rob your 15 milllion from the bank. But from your wallet, it is very easy to rob...
I completely agree with you both. It's essential to keep our cryptocurrency holdings private, as disclosing this information can put us at risk. Sharing our holdings with others could lead to serious consequences, including kidnapping or even violence. Therefore it's crucial to maintain confidentiality and keep our holdings secret from those around us. This will enable us to manage assets securely and live without unnecessary worries.
