Jameson Lopp's Bitcoin Wrench Attack Archive Grows to Over 700 Cases After AI Search
Bitcoin security expert Jameson Lopp announced that his public archive of physical attacks on cryptocurrency holders has expanded to about 702 incidents. The increase follows AI‑assisted searches by researcher Pizza Bitcoiner, which added roughly 375 previously missing cases. The archive now documents attacks dating back to 2014, including 31 deaths since 2020 and reported losses of about $394 million across 447 cases. Pizza Bitcoiner’s separate database recorded 670 verified incidents in 72 countries between January 2020 and mid‑October 2026. Lopp said the data will continue to be updated weekly.
