Paris Man Robbed of €2M in Bitcoin Following Violent Kidnapping

France seems to have a pretty bad and growing crypto crime and it is affecting those that in what would be typically thought of as luxury and safe places. I mean the co-founder of Ledger has also been kidnapped with his wife and the French special forces had to rescue him.

Since they have arrested the 5 people who participated in this attack it will be interesting to see if they were able to move the BTC or not. If its still on the drive then there's a chance it can all be recovered! Which would be a huge win.

Why though would someone carry around this much BTC is my question…. Its kinda absurd.
