Kidnapping Chaos: Crypto Entrepreneur's Dad Rescued in Paris!

In Paris, French police have freed the father of a crypto entrepreneur who was held captive for ransom. During a raid on May 3, five suspects were arrested. The kidnappers demanded up to €7 million ($7.9 million) for his release. The entrepreneur and his father co-owned a Malta-based crypto marketing firm. Similar crypto-related kidnappings have been occurring globally, targeting individuals perceived as wealthy in the crypto industry. This incident echoes past cases like the January 2025 kidnapping of Ledger co-founder David Balland in France.
