The Sandbox联合创始人妻子在法国遭遇绑架未遂，涉案嫌疑人已被逮捕

The wife of The Sandbox co-founder and COO Sebastien Borget was the target of a failed kidnapping attempt this week at their home in Villenoy, Seine-et-Marne, France. A suspect disguised as a delivery driver, while the victim opened the gate, five accomplices in hoods rushed in and attempted to force her into a vehicle. Neighbors intervened after hearing screams, prompting the suspects to flee. Police later intercepted a ride-hailing vehicle and arrested two suspects, Mateo V. and Walid H., seizing replica handguns, zip ties, and masks.

Data from the French National Police (DGPN) shows that since January 1, 2026, France has recorded 41 kidnapping or attempted kidnapping cases linked to cryptocurrency-related crimes. Since 2023, a cumulative total of 135 such cases have been recorded, accounting for nearly 80% of similar incidents in Europe. (The Block)
