Official French data shows that between January 1 and mid-August 2026, France recorded 90 cryptocurrency-related cases of kidnapping, extortion, threats and violent theft, averaging roughly one incident every 2.5 days. Over the same period, police made 223 arrests, with 126 people imprisoned between January and July. Blockchain analytics firm Chainalysis counted 30 publicly recorded cryptocurrency-related violent attacks in France as of mid-2026; security firm Gart.io, meanwhile, tracked 73 real-world attacks in France that year — more than the 66 recorded in the U.S. and 27 in the U.K. Eric Jardine, Chainalysis’ head of research, attributed the surge in attacks to large-scale data breaches. Breaches of French tax records and user data from crypto tax reporting platform Waltio in 2026 likely allowed attackers to obtain cryptocurrency holders’ identities, home addresses and asset information. The report also noted that over 40% of the relevant attacks in France involved victims’ relatives or acquaintances, with criminals likely targeting victims in advance via social media, on-chain data and leaked information. French authorities are coordinating investigations through specialized judicial bodies focused on organized crime.

Crypto hardware wallet maker Ledger is investigating a fund theft incident affecting Southeast Asian users who purchased devices through reseller CryptoBilis. Ledger has ordered CryptoBilis to suspend sales and shipments, and advised users who bought devices from the reseller in the past 90 days to hold off on initializing their devices. For those who have already set up their Ledger devices, they should create a new Ledger signing device using a new recovery phrase and transfer their assets to the new wallet. On-chain investigator Specter estimates the incident has led to the theft of hundreds of wallets on the Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Tron networks, with losses exceeding $86 million. Security researcher tanuki42 previously put losses at over $72 million, adding that the total is still rising. The specific cause of the incident and whether the affected devices have security vulnerabilities remain under investigation and unconfirmed.
