Ledger "Data Breach" is very annoying and heart breaking!

The point is not to let anyone know in public, that you own Bitcoin. Like for example in Facebook, boasting to friends that you are HODLing. It would only attract the attention of scammers, and other criminals, https://fullycrypto.com/did-ledger-hack-lead-to-stockholm-bitcoin-robbery

I even know few guys who bragged many times in public on twitter how they earned moeny from crypto and they reported all the stuff they purchased including smartphones and cars, from Bitcoin profits.
How hard do you think it would be for someone to connect few dots and find their addresses and their real identities?
I guess not much for someone who is really interested to find this out.

I believe Jameson Lopp was also a victim of a targetted attack because of his Bitcoin.

Yeah he was one of the victims, and that is why he is trying to help other people and keeps updating list of all known Bitcoin attacks on his github and website,
There is no better man to listen if you want to protect yourself from attacks like this.

This is a completely different case from the first one and even though the article suggests that there is no evidence that links the couple to the Ledger hack, I am pretty sure that's how they got targeted. That and the fact they bragged about it over social media. 14 addresses whose owners reside in the same suburb could mean that more robbers start observing that place.

It’s not related, but I was merely making a point that like us upgrading our investments, and Store of Value in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, the violent criminals who could break in your homes have also upgraded what they steal. They know about private keys, and Bitcoin.
