French crypto boss hails ‘heroic’ duo for foiling kidnap bid
This week’s attempted abduction was the latest attack on a crypto trader in Paris, prompting Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau to hold an emergency meeting with sector leaders on Friday, with the ministry announcing plans to bolster their security.
On Tuesday morning, four masked men attacked the daughter of Noizat, who is the CEO and co-founder of Paymium, a French cryptocurrency exchange platform, as well as her husband and their child in the French capital’s trendy 11th arronidssement.
All three suffered light injuries and were taken to hospital.
Noizat praised his “heroic” son-in-law and the man who used a red fire extinguisher against the attackers, saying he was “exemplary.”
