The attempted abduction of the daughter of Paymium CEO Noizat in Paris highlights a disturbing trend of violence against crypto traders. Noizatâs family faced a violent encounter with masked assailants, but they fought back with community support. The Interior Minister responded with an emergency meeting and announced security enhancements to protect individuals in the cryptocurrency sector. This incident follows a previous high-profile kidnapping involving Ledger co-founder David Balland, intensifying concerns over the safety of cryptocurrency professionals in France.
I admire them, said Noizat. The couple's resistance and the heroic actions of bystanders prevented a potentially more serious crime.
I'm amazed by his resilience and his courage, Noizat told broadcaster BFMTV, praising the son-in-law for fighting off the attackers.
During their escape, the attackers dropped an airsoft gun, a police source said, highlighting the peculiar nature of their weapons.
The ministry announced plans to bolster their security measures in response to the alarming trend of attacks on crypto traders.
