Four suspects have been charged with breaking and entering to rob cryptocurrency streamer Amouranth
ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, four suspects have been charged with the armed robbery of online streamer Amouranth (real name Kaitlyn Siragusa). The suspects include two minors aged 16-17, who are accused of entering the home with firearms and demanding the streamer hand over her cryptocurrency private keys.
The incident occurred on the evening of March 2, when several armed individuals broke into Siragusa's home, assaulted her, and threatened her with a gun, demanding access to her cryptocurrency. Fortunately, Siragusa's husband was informed of the situation through a phone call and surveillance cameras. While the suspects searched for cold wallet devices, Siragusa managed to escape and reunite with her husband, who then fired at the intruders, causing them to flee the scene.
It is reported that Siragusa had previously revealed online that she held approximately 211 bitcoins, worth over $20 million, which may have made her a target for the robbery.
