US Charges Trio In Brutal Crypto Wrench Attack Campaign

A federal grand jury in San Francisco has indicted three men from Tennessee—Elijah Armstrong, Nino Chindavanh, and Jayden Rucker—on charges including conspiracy to commit robbery and kidnapping. The group is accused of carrying out a series of violent "wrench attacks" across California between November and December last year. Posing as delivery drivers to gain entry into victims' homes, they used threats and physical violence to force the victims to surrender their cryptocurrency seed phrases, stealing at least $6.5 million. Authorities highlight that such violent crimes targeting crypto owners are becoming more common, exploiting the public visibility of on-chain wealth. The case underscores a critical vulnerability in digital asset security, as seed phrases obtained under duress grant irreversible control over wallets.

An 18-Year-Old Hacker Brags on Discord, Accidentally Reveals a $19 Million Theft Case

An 18-year-old American hacker, Dritan Kapllani Jr., has been exposed by on-chain investigator ZachXBT for allegedly masterminding a series of social engineering attacks that stole approximately $19 million from crypto users. The investigation began after a Discord voice call on April 23, 2026, where Dritan shared his screen to boast, revealing an Exodus wallet holding around $3.68 million. Tracing this address, ZachXBT linked it to a major March 14, 2026 theft of 185 BTC (worth ~$13 million at the time), with about $5.3 million of that sum funneled into Dritan's wallet. Further analysis revealed the wallet also contained over $5.85 million from multiple social engineering thefts dating back to 2025. In a May 11, 2026 unsealed criminal complaint against another individual, Trenton Johnson, a key co-conspirator marked "CC-1" is identified, with the on-chain community pointing to Dritan. While not formally charged yet, he is now named in the judicial narrative. Another individual, Meme coin KOL yelotree, faces charges for allegedly assisting in money laundering. Dritan, known for a lavish lifestyle on social media, was previously seen as having a "protagonist aura" within hacking circles, evading consequences as associates were apprehended. However, now that he has turned 18, he is facing legal accountability for his past actions.

Forbes 30 Under 30 in Trouble Again: Fintech CEO Accused of Fraud

Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree Gökçe Güven, the 26-year-old founder and CEO of fintech startup Kalder, has been charged by the U.S. Department of Justice with securities fraud, wire fraud, visa fraud, and aggravated identity theft. The Turkish entrepreneur, who was featured on last year’s list, is accused of misleading investors during a $7 million seed funding round in April 2024. Prosecutors allege that Güven presented a business plan containing false claims, including that 26 brands were using Kalder’s services—though many had no agreement with the company—and that the startup had reached $1.2 million in annual recurring revenue. The government also claims she maintained two sets of financial records and used fraudulent documents to obtain a U.S. visa. This case adds to the growing number of Forbes 30 Under 30 alumni facing legal troubles, including figures like Sam Bankman-Fried and Charlie Javice.
