【Googly: French home invasion stemmed from a tax filing typo, 0.066 BTC was mistakenly recorded as 660 coins】
Googly, a builder of the stablecoin network Plasma, said while reposting coverage of a crypto-related French home invasion that, in another case, criminals broke into a residence and violently assaulted an entire family, believing the homeowner held 660 BTC. Googly said the homeowner had made a typo when filing taxes and the relevant information was leaked; the actual holdings were only 0.066 BTC. Googly also trades and makes angel investments in APG Capital. The post he cited, quoting Le Parisien, stated that February 6, 2026, several masked men broke into the home of a couple and their 20-year-old daughter in Juilly, Seine-et-Marne. The attackers believed the father held 660 bitcoins, worth approximately 40000000 EUR, and beat him in front of his family while demanding that he open his crypto wallets. After checking the accounts, the first wallet held only 3000 USD, while the other accounts held nearly 7000 EUR. Two of the raiders were October 16 sentenced to 3 years and 18 months in prison.
