In November 2024, she shared a Coinbase screenshot showing that she held approximately 211 Bitcoin, worth around 20 million dollars at the time. The screenshot also indicated she owned 80,000 dollars in Ether.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On March 3, she provided an update, posting a security camera video that appeared to show her leading the men to another area of her property before three loud noises were heard, prompting the intruders to flee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-crypto-wrench-attacks-on-the-rise\">Crypto Wrench Attacks on the Rise<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Amouranth\u2019s case is part of a growing trend of crypto wrench attacks, where criminals use physical force or threats to steal cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other high-profile incidents in 2025 include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>January: A Canadian crypto forum moderator went into hiding after an attempted kidnapping to access his Bitcoin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>January 21: David Balland, co-founder of Ledger, was allegedly abducted from his home, with kidnappers demanding a crypto ransom.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>February: An alleged crypto-related home invasion took place in Chicago.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Security experts warn that high-profile crypto holders are becoming prime targets. A pseudonymous security analyst, Dr. Anon, advised crypto investors to maintain a decoy wallet with only a small portion of funds to minimize losses in such attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amouranth has been notably open about her finances, frequently discussing her investments, earnings, and business ventures. She previously appeared on a YouTube personal finance show and was the most-watched female streamer on Twitch in 2021 and 2022. More recently, she expanded into OnlyFans, further increasing her financial visibility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kaitlyn Siragusa, better known as Amouranth, has alleged that she was the target of a violent home invasion on March 2, with the attackers specifically demanding her cryptocurrency.
