attempted kidnapping of crypto exec's daughter

Get this: twenty-five people are gonna face a judge on Friday. Why? Well, they apparently tried to kidnap the daughter of some rich crypto dude. Yeah, seriously. Plus, they're also facing charges for, like, planning the whole thing, which is a criminal conspiracy charge.

You might have even seen videos of this crazy attempt floating around online. They were everywhere on social media! It went down right in the middle of the day on a street in Paris. These videos showed, like, three guys with masks on, you know, struggling with two people while a van just chilled nearby, ready to peace out. It was pretty wild, honestly.

And here's the kicker, this is actually the third time recently that people in the crypto world, or their families, have been attacked like this. It makes you wonder what's going on, right?
