    "Your bitcoins or your life motherfucker!"
    The beauty of it is, if the kidnappers get him to give up his bitcoins, they won't be traced or caught. Love it!
    So there is still opportunity for people who missed the boat to cash in on bitcoin! Find a bitcoin millionaire, kidnap him, force him to give them up and you're home free!

    Bitcoin Exchange CEO Kidnapped Leaving Office
    by Tyler Durden
    Fri, 12/29/2017 - 10:09

    Being a "Bitcoin Billionaire" just got a bit more complicated after reports surfaced that the CEO of EXMO, a UK-based Bitcoin exchange, was kidnapped in Kiev. According to The Telegraph, Pavel Lerner (40) was pulled into a black Mercedes Benz by a group of armed men wearing ski masks as he left his office in the Obolon district of Kiev on December 26.

    Adding to the intrigue of the abduction, EXMO's website suffered a DDOS attack this morning, which knocked trading temporarily offline, just as news of the kidnapping begin to draw public attention.

    Following the news of Lerner's disappearance, EXMO issued a statement requesting "any information regarding his whereabouts" and assuring customers that he could not be 'convinced' to give up their Bitcoin or personal data stored on the exchange.

    A spokesman was unavailable for comment but a statement sent to RT, the broadcaster backed by the Russian government, said that Mr Lerner's kidnapping would not affect the business.

    "We are doing everything possible to speed up the search of Pavel Lerner," it said.

    "Any information regarding his whereabouts is very much appreciated. Despite the situation, the exchange is working as usual. We also want to stress that nature of Pavel’s job at EXMO doesn’t assume access either to storages or any personal data of users. All users funds are absolutely safe."

    Pavel Lerner

    According to RT, Lerner, a Russian citizen, has a number of startups in the Ukraine linked to cryptocurrency mining and blockchain technology in addition to being the CEO of EXMO.

    Earlier this month we reported that, Nice Hash, the largest crypto-mining marketplace, was hacked with over 4,700 bitcoins, worth over $62 million, stolen and ultimately ending up at the following address:

    Of course, it's completely unclear whether Lerner's disappearance has anything to do with his links to various cryptocurrency ventures and Kiev police have yet to release any details on potential motives for the kidnapping.

    Crypto Exchange CEO Released After Paying $1 Million Ransom In Bitcoin
    by Tyler Durden
    Fri, 12/29/2017 - 14:45

    Just yesterday we warned that the lives of the world's new "Bitcoin Billionaires" had just become a bit more complicated after reports surfaced that one such crypto investor, Pavel Lerner, was kidnapped by a group of armed men wearing ski masks as he left his office in the Obolon district of Kiev earlier this week.

    While it may have seemed that his fate was sealed at the moment of his kidnapping, the Financial Times has just confirmed the Lerner has been released after paying his kidnappers a $1 million ransom in Bitcoin.

    An executive of a UK-registered cryptocurrency exchange kidnapped in Ukraine this week has been released after paying a ransom of more than $1m in bitcoins, according to an adviser to the Ukrainian interior minister, in a crime he dubbed “bitcoin kidnapping and extortion”.

    “He was kidnapped by an armed gang for the purpose of extorting bitcoins,” Mr Gerashchenko told the Financial Times, adding: “We have operative information that he paid more than $1m worth of bitcoins.”

    He said Mr Lerner was held for one and a half days, “then released in a state of shock. ... He got very lucky that he remained alive.”

    Lerner

    As we noted yesterday, Pavel, a Russian citizen, has a number of startups in Ukraine linked to cryptocurrency mining and blockchain technology. In addition, he is also the CEO of EXMO, a UK-based Bitcoin exchange.

    According to prior reports from The Telegraph, Lerner (40) was pulled into a black Mercedes Benz by a group of armed men wearing ski masks as he left his office on December 26. Adding to the intrigue of the abduction, EXMO's website suffered a DDOS attack yesterday morning, which knocked trading temporarily offline, just as news of the kidnapping begin to draw public attention.

    Following the news of Lerner's disappearance, EXMO issued a statement requesting "any information regarding his whereabouts" and assuring customers that he could not be 'convinced' to give up their Bitcoin or personal data stored on the exchange.

    A spokesman was unavailable for comment but a statement sent to RT, the broadcaster backed by the Russian government, said that Mr Lerner's kidnapping would not affect the business.

    "We are doing everything possible to speed up the search of Pavel Lerner," it said.

    "Any information regarding his whereabouts is very much appreciated. Despite the situation, the exchange is working as usual. We also want to stress that nature of Pavel’s job at EXMO doesn’t assume access either to storages or any personal data of users. All users funds are absolutely safe."

    Of course, Lerner is not the first Bitcoin extortion target for the world's new breed of crypto terrorists. Earlier this month we reported that, Nice Hash, the largest crypto-mining marketplace, was hacked with over 4,700 bitcoins, worth over $62 million, stolen and ultimately ending up at the following address:

    Conclusion: If you've made a small fortune trading Bitcoin over the past couple of quarters it may be best to keep that information to yourself...

    Now for my opinion, Jews are behind Bitcoin and the crypto industry and they have much bigger plans then to give people like you and I a decentralized currency.
    Not true, jews have never, EVER in the history of money EVER opened their ledger for an audit willingly. The Bitcoin blockchain is public and can be viewed, searched, and analyzed at will. There is even a site called walletexplorer.com that is able to track (exchange wise) who owns a wallet. Jews scurry from the light like cockroaches, to say they are behind it is to be ignorant of its use. At this point in time I would of thought you would of looked into crytpo currencies further. If you want a Jew sponsored and 100% controlled coin look no further than Ripple. 100% premined, controlled, centralized garbage banker coin that is attempting to be used to facilitate intra bank lending using the Ripple protocol.

    *The above has nothing to do with people profiting during the transition into a global currency for the elite Jewish NWO.
    I'm sure no one that's making money on cryptos cares what happens to the world, or our future, as long as you're getting rich now. Now is all that matters.
    Also not true, there is a battle going on for the heart and soul of Bitcoin. Between those who want to try and control it and those who want to leave it decentralized open and free. If The jews were behind it, there would be no battle for it's existence.

    Ares, stated in another thread that "Bitcoin were price searching itself"

    Hell be it that Jews don't create a "battle for existence" when price searching.

    In fact, I think that's pretty much all they ever do. "We need enemies" is their sole motto and chaos creed.

    Once the battle won, the jew's enemy is homogenized for future counter use never exiled.

    We've seen how price discovery has been all but removed from gold and silver. Price discovery on a decentralized asset class that they did not create nor control is being a bit problematic for them.
