Excessive KYC + Data Leaks = Kidnapping & Extortion
Global Gart stats right now:
- 340 reported attacks
- across 59 countries
- 26 fatalities
- +84% YoY
- correlating with Bitcoin price rallies
Regulation and data collection are not protecting people. They're instead building target lists for violent criminals.
Privacy & opsec are going to become survival skills.
Thanks for the wake up call joenakamoto (nprofile…mtx5).
