Police in South Korea have arrested four individuals in connection with the murder of a Chinese man who had traveled to Jeju to complete a private cryptocurrency exchange. The victim had been stabbed multiple times and bled to death in his hotel room. The suspects, including a Chinese woman and three Chinese nationals, were apprehended after one of them turned herself in and the others were caught at the airport attempting to leave the country. The suspects were found with the victim's money, but the investigation into their motives and actions is ongoing. This incident is part of a growing trend of violent thefts of cryptocurrency. Developer Jameson Lopp has recorded numerous physical Bitcoin attacks in recent years, and the number appears to be increasing. Experts emphasize the importance of privacy and caution when engaging in cryptocurrency transactions to mitigate the risk of becoming a victim of theft or violence.
