French cryptocurrency tycoon Pierre Novazza said on the 16th that his daughter and grandson were almost kidnapped, thanks to his son-in-law's resistance and the brave assistance of a neighbor. This is the latest kidnapping plot targeting cryptocurrency tycoons in France. Novazza runs a cryptocurrency trading platform. According to Agence France-Presse, on the 13th of this month, Novazza's daughter, her husband, and children were attacked by four masked men in the 11th district of Paris. Novazza's son-in-law was beaten with a blunt instrument, screams from the scene attracted the attention of passersby, and a man grabbed a fire extinguisher and ran towards the kidnappers. Eventually, with the help of several neighbors, Novazza's son-in-law managed to repel the kidnappers, who fled in a car.
