STFU about your stack if you care about your family.
An attempted kidnapping victim was identified as the wife of a crypto influencer. Her husband had been keen to post on social media that he had become a millionaire by investing in crypto currencies.

Is this not a huge problem for all influencers? Even though they do not disclose any information?
Define influencer. We have a lot of people who are broke AF making their living off “educating” others. You ever listen to some of these so-called influencers talking about leverage etc. Sure, money isn’t real but the swill they sell is poisonous. ☠️
Yes, but the attackers could assume that you are stacking hard as fuck. And get hints when people talk about hos many years etc
They could but TBF anyone can be perceived as an enemy or a friend.
Example: recently met my first ever other known, local #Bitcoin user. Yay 🎉
Conversation went like this. Who introduced you to #Bitcoin
Me: yeah, that’s a tough question. Guess it was when I read the white page. 📄
Who introduced you to that?
Me: Satoshi
Him: YOU’RE not Satoshi
Me: obviously 🙄 I’m not Satoshi as the white page clearly says we and I am but one. We are all #Satoshi
He restated his question.

Do you see my point?
I’m broke. So good luck to any kidnappers.
Weird as I just spoke about this being an issue.
Always talk about Bitcoin.
Never talk about your Bitcoin.
Bitcoin fixes that. Once we move to the Bitcoin standard is going to happen way less since the society will be more kind and it won’t be that profitable/tempting to be a bad guy. Currently a lot of the people are pushed to the edge because of fiat.
🎯 how I feel these days because of my orange pilling actions over the years. The bitcoin guy of my community. No one for them to kidnap and I conceal carry everywhere I go, but still makes me second guess orange pilling folk all these years. Luckily I live in a crackhouse so that should throw them off.
STFU is good life advice in general.
Even if not now byt one day when bitcoin is 1M or more someone might recollect that there was that guy next door in bitcoin hat. He can say that to a friend in a pub and that friend with his friends might pay you a visit.
Lay low
Be only a nym
Protect the future of your family
I still think the hardest Bitcoin lesson to learn is "knowing when to STFU".
Be humble or be humbled.

The first part says “Stay Humble.”
No, they should keep going so we can live in peace.
the only silver lining of this story is that the kidnapping was unsuccessful and the perps will (hopefully) be punished, acting as a deterrent to others
