In Paris, police rescued a man who had been kidnapped to extort a ransom from his crypto-millionaire son. Four suspects were arrested in a raid on a suburban area, where the victim was located. The kidnappers sought between €5 million and €7 million.

This event underscores a disturbing trend of violence associated with the cryptocurrency sector. Earlier this year, a similar incident had occurred, involving another crypto executive. Authorities are now probing multiple suspects linked to these crimes, reflecting a growing concern in the "far right" and "progressive" discussions surrounding the impact of cryptocurrency.
