David Balland, a co-founder of French crypto firm Ledger, had his hand mutilated while he and his wife were kidnapped, the Paris prosecutor said, adding that 10 people were being questioned following the freeing of the pair. https://www.reuters.com/world/europ...irm-ledger-had-his-hand-mutilated-2025-01-24/
Net Worth and Lifestyle While specific figures regarding Balland’s net worth are not publicly available, his role in establishing Ledger, a company valued at over $1 billion, suggests significant financial success. His income is primarily derived from his ventures in the tech industry, particularly in digital security solutions. Other sources : $100M I wonder, how much of it, did he invested into his own security.
We discussed this a week ago in my thread about crypto owners being in constant danger. Be your own bank, have your own bank robber!
After spending a certain amount of money it is not how much money he invested in security that counts. Did he hire loyal and top notch people who put in the best security procedures? Did he follow his safety procedures when visiting the mistress?
probably someone like me who got locked out of his ledger device when they decided to not support a upgrade.
David Balland has learned his lesson. Never will he risk mis-gendering a pink/red/blue haired person again.
