France records surge in attacks on crypto holders

Original: France, the land of croissants, the Eiffel Tower and, apparently, the most attacks on crypto holders, according to Gart.

France is facing a wave of violence targeting cryptocurrency holders, with the Interior Ministry recording around 90 cases of kidnapping, extortion and violent theft in roughly seven months — one incident every 2.5 days.
