What’s Behind the Surge of Crypto Deaths? By Cointelegraph

Last month, plumbers in Bulgaria were summoned to address a blocked drain at an apartment complex in Sofia. Upon investigation, they discovered the decomposed body of Christian Peev, a 41-year-old cryptocurrency entrepreneur from the United States. It is believed that he was violently killed with a dumbbell by a jealous acquaintance.

In a separate incident weeks prior, children discovered the body of Fernando Prez Algaba, a missing cryptocurrency millionaire, in a river located in the Buenos Aires province. Authorities report that he suffered three gunshot wounds before being concealed in a suitcase, with evidence suggesting ties to organized crime.

The surge in violent incidents involving cryptocurrency figures has raised numerous questions about the dangers faced by those within this high-stakes industry.
