Spanish and Danish authorities have successfully dismantled a cross-border criminal gang responsible for a fatal crypto wallet kidnapping in Málaga. The coordinated operation led to five arrests in Spain and charges against four individuals in Denmark. During raids in Madrid and Málaga, police seized weapons, blood-stained clothing, and electronic devices linked to the crime. The victim was reportedly shot and killed after being coerced into surrendering access to their cryptocurrency wallet. This incident is part of a troubling trend, with Chainalysis documenting 35 similar "wrench attacks" globally in 2025. The rise in physical threats against crypto holders is causing increased concern among investors, highlighting the growing risks associated with digital asset ownership.
