Protecting Digital Wealth in the Physical World

Security for Crypto Wealth Holders

Why Crypto Wealth Holders Need Physical Security

As cryptocurrency adoption grows, so too does the threat landscape for high-net-worth crypto investors. While digital assets are stored online or in cold wallets, their owners often become targets in the physical world. Criminals increasingly resort to “crypto wrench attacks” — coercion, extortion, or physical threats designed to force individuals to hand over private keys.

We specialise in protecting crypto wealth holders, entrepreneurs, and early-stage investors who have accumulated significant assets through digital currencies.

When Should Cryptocurrency Investors Consider Physical Security?

For cryptocurrency wealth holders, digital defences alone are not enough. Physical protection ensures your digital success does not make you a target in the real world. Criminals increasingly bypass firewalls and cold wallets by targeting people directly.

You should consider enhanced physical security if:

You have recently realised significant gains from Bitcoin, Ethereum, or other digital assets.

Your identity or crypto holdings have been publicised through media, court filings, or online forums.

You are involved in crypto fundraising, high-value transactions, or token launches.

You store or access digital assets from a primary residence or office that could be targeted.

You or your family have received threats, extortion attempts, or unwanted approaches.
