Britain's first Bitcoin heist sees cryptocurrency trader held at gunpoint
DIGITAL CURRENCY just got physical as Britain has experienced its first Bitcoin robbery, with a trader being forced at gunpoint to transfer cryptocurrency.
The robbers reportedly kicked in the .. door .. tied up [his] 31-year-old girlfriend and held their baby outside .. to force the 30-year-old trader to handover his digital money.
Given [he] traded using a pseudonym and cryptocurrency can be difficult to track, it's yet unknown how the four burglars were able to find [his] home..
Interesting because its a relatively new phase of cryptocurrency crime. Also because guns were involved -- in Britain.
In addition, more articles about GPUs and cryptocurrency. But, they're all sounding alike -- GPUs will be very expensive for a very long time. Too bad for me, I wanted to buy one soon.
