Crypto Trader Offers $2.4 Million Bounty After Violent $24M Robbery
A U.S.-based cryptocurrency trader has offered a significant reward in an attempt to recover $24 million stolen during a violent incident in May 2025.
The attack, which involved two individuals allegedly kidnapping and torturing a wealthy crypto trader in Manhattan, resulted in the theft of approximately $24 million. The victim, traumatized but determined, has offered a 10% bounty for the return of the stolen funds.
This move is unprecedented in the crypto world, where bounties are typically used to recover assets in non-violent theft scenarios. However, it highlights the complexities and risks involved in recovering stolen cryptocurrency, particularly when physical violence is involved.
