Crime on bitcoin holders are rare. And like any other crime this can easyly be stop.

Most important.
 Holders need to not advertise there holding and stay Anonymous.
Keep wallets safe and seed untouchable where no one can find this.

If you are a cryptocurrency exchange and have no way of anonymous then up your security. And move to a safe country. I don’t think I would like to be advertised as an exchange holder and live in  third world country. This is dangerous for your safety and exchange.

This is why I have opened up a poll asking about cryptocurrency banks. We don’t have to call these banks can be called bitcoin trust funds account. This way people will know you don’t hold your wallet at home or office this can stop crime. Like a bank account you only hold small amount in wallet most large fund are locked which can only be taken with a visit to the bank. Or place

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

We do not need banks, this is a decentralized system, any on such introduction will make it less of it. In this system, your wallet acts as your bank and it's in your total control, there are different kinds of wallets with varying levels of safety.
For utmost safety just get a hardware wallet and that's that, you are sure of your safety with it

From murders to kidnappings, it seems criminals are targetting Bitcoin hodlers these days. Now why is it that individuals are more careful with fiat than they are with crypto. This is money and more people (even crooks) are realizing that. I read this analysis of Bitcoin related crimes and think we should think of ways of keeping our crypto safe and our lives also. https://cryptoinfowatch.com/cryptocurrency-crimes-surge-as-industry-strives-for-greater-adoption/
The question is how those criminals find their victims because they already know what they are looking when they are doing that crime. The problem is people tend to boast a lot to their friend and family and also on social media websites so they are a very easy target for criminals , especially because they know crypto are untraceable.
