Whale reportedly loses $6.7M in crypto after being physically threatened

An anonymous crypto whale was robbed of approximately $6.7 million in assets after being physically threatened, FinanceSpeed reported, citing on-chain analyst Spectre. The attacker withdrew 1,554 ETH and 10.5 BTC from the victim's Kraken account, along with 34.1 cbBTC from a Coinbase account. According to the report, transaction records show the withdrawals were systematic and swift, suggesting the victim was likely coerced into making the transfers. Over $5.3 million of the stolen funds were subsequently moved through multiple wallets and deposited into Tornado Cash, making them difficult to trace.
