🇫🇷 THEY WEREN'T HACKED. THEY WERE HUNTED. Two French crypto investors in their 20s drove across London for what they believed was a routine cannabis deal. Instead... They were ambushed by three masked men armed with a gun and knife before being taken to a flat in east London. According to prosecutors, the next 52 hours were horrific. • They were cable-tied. • Beaten repeatedly. • Burned with cigarettes. • Scalded with boiling water. • Given just one chicken wing between them to eat. The kidnappers demanded $150,000 in cryptocurrency. One victim was eventually released after transferring around $30,000 in crypto. The second victim says he was then "sold" to another gang before the ordeal finally ended after police chased the suspects through London at speeds of up to 70 mph, with the getaway car crashing into a lamppost. Six men have now been convicted. But the alleged ringleader reportedly orchestrated the operation over WhatsApp from overseas and remains at large. The biggest takeaway? As crypto wealth grows, so does the risk of real-world attacks. For criminals, stealing a private key can be easier than robbing a bank.

🚨 A RECORD NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT The Coinbase Bitcoin Premium Index has been negative for 44 straight days. That's the longest negative streak ever recorded. What it means: A negative premium means $BTC is trading cheaper on Coinbase than on Binance. In simple terms: • U.S. investors are selling • Institutional demand remains weak • Retail is doing more of the buying Historically, sustained negative premiums have been associated with capital outflows & weaker market sentiment. Yet BTC is still holding up but for how long?
