As kidnappings targeting cryptocurrency investors surge, insurance companies are stepping up to offer specialized policies tailored to these high-net-worth individuals’ unique needs. This move reflects growing safety concerns and a heightened demand for protection within the crypto community. Industry insiders point to an increase in fear among crypto holders, driving these targeted K&R (Kidnap & Ransom) policies from companies like AnchorWatch, Relm Insurance, and Hylant Capital. Executives openly acknowledge this shift in security priorities at industry events, with Rebecca Rubenfeld’s statement at the Bitcoin Conference highlighting a significant rise in concerns regarding personal security. These specialized K&R policies demonstrate a focus on the psychological impact of physical threats and their influence on the crypto market’s evolving safety landscape.
