Crypto wrench attacks in France have become a larger concern after Bitcoin journalist Joe Nakamoto said the country accounts for about 70% of reported physical attacks against crypto holders and their families. 






Summary






France accounts for 70% of reported crypto wrench attacks, according to Bitcoin journalist Joe Nakamoto.



Nakamoto said France recorded 41 crypto kidnappings this year, roughly one case every 2.5 days.



French authorities charged 88 suspects as wrench attack investigations widened across 12 cases in April.








The latest figures put the country at the center of a security debate that now links privacy, custody, and personal safety.



Nakamoto said France has recorded 41 crypto-linked kidnappings so far in 2026. That equals roughly one case every two and a half days, based on his latest report.



A wrench attack means criminals use force, threats, kidnapping, or home invasion to pressure a victim into handing over crypto. The target is often not only the holder, but also relatives who may be easier to reach.

Nakamoto linked the rise in attacks to centralized know-your-customer records. He said criminals can use leaked names, emails, phone numbers, and home addresses to find possible crypto holders.



The 2020 Ledger customer data leak remains central to that debate. Nakamoto said the breach exposed details tied to more than 270,000 customers worldwide.

The Fed may open direct settlement rails to crypto firms as banks warn of liquidity risk $fedYou never see the most important part of any of your payments. When an app says your money moved, a number changes on your screen, and the transaction looks and feels finished.

But underneath those interfaces lies a separate, invisible chain of bank reserves, settlement accounts, and Fed infrastructure that determines when your funds actually clear, who controls that settlement, and which institutions are allowed to participate in it at all.

For crypto payments, that underlying system has been off-limits. Exchanges and crypto companies have had to route all of their dollar payments through partner banks, which handled the actual settlement with the Federal Reserve on their behalf. When those relationships collapsed during the failures of Silvergate and Signature Bank in 2023, they revealed just how fragile that relationship was, and the industry has been building the case for direct Fed access ever since.

Two converging developments this week have brought that case to a head. In December 2025, the Fed formally requested public comment on a new “payment account” that would let eligible non-bank institutions clear and settle payments through Fed infrastructure, without receiving the full package of privileges available to traditional bank master accounts.

Then, on May 19, President Trump signed an executive order titled “Integrating Financial Technology Innovation Into Regulatory Frameworks,” directing the Fed to submit a comprehensive review of its payment access framework within 120 days and establish transparent application procedures within 90. The executive order can't compel the Fed to act, but political backing at that level tends to clarify which way institutional attention is pointing.

Open Interest Signals Cautious Trader Confidence
Bitcoin derivatives data shows that leveraged participation remains elevated despite recent volatility. Open interest expanded rapidly during Bitcoin’s rally toward the $120,000 region earlier this cycle. At its peak, total open interest surpassed $90 billion as speculative activity intensified.However, the sharp correction that followed triggered large-scale position unwinding and likely forced long liquidations. Recently, open interest stabilized around $54 billion while Bitcoin traded near $76,900. Consequently, traders appear to rebuild positions more cautiously than before.

Additionally, recovery attempts in open interest throughout April and May reflect improving confidence among market participants. Still, lower highs in leverage metrics indicate traders remain more disciplined compared to previous euphoric periods.

Developers Are Turning Majorly Bullish on XRP, “They Know Something” — Analyst

HTXSquare: Global Markets After Trump China Visit

A widely followed $XRP community figure says sentiment among $XRP developers is turning “majorly bullish.”

Digital Asset Investor, who has covered $XRP for nearly a decade, claimed that developers across the $XRP ecosystem are becoming increasingly optimistic despite $XRP’s recent price weakness. $XRP is currently trading around $1.35, down roughly 2% over the past week and 5% over the past month.

Key Points
$XRP developers are reportedly turning increasingly bullish amid price weakness.
Digital Asset Investor says optimism across the $XRP ecosystem feels different from past market cycles.
Critics argue the bullish claims lack developer metrics, on-chain data, and proof of institutional demand.
Dom and Phill Kwok believe $XRP could eventually reach $1,000 within the next four to five years.
$XRP Developer Sentiment Turning Bullish
According to Digital Asset Investor, the current mood among $XRP developers feels different from previous market cycles. He said the growing optimism is not limited to a few prominent figures. Instead, it appears to be spreading across multiple developer accounts on X.

The analyst stated that after witnessing years of shifting $XRP sentiment, the latest wave of bullishness stands out as unusual. He added that other $XRP influencers have also privately noticed the same trend among builders within the ecosystem.

The comments have fueled speculation that developers may expect stronger adoption, regulatory clarity, and deeper institutional integration of the $XRP Ledger.

“Trust Me Bro”
Meanwhile, some community members reacting to the post do not share the same level of optimism. X user Dimon argued that Digital Asset Investor makes promising claims without any developer activity metrics on the XRPL to support them.
