Our strength should rely on what we do and have, the moment we expose it to the public then we have to given them a target to use in knowing our strength and weakness, some will think they are doing all these because of public recognition and to earn some respect and intimidate on others by flaunting their asset worth to the public, but not knowing that they are only doing harm to their own self, no any benefits in doing this, instead you will have to blame yourself just as in the case of the illustrated example.

Social media is not a place to show off wealth. Any person who decides to show off wealth over there is trying to put his life in danger because not everyone on social media has a good heart. Some have bad intentions, looking for who they will scam, kill, and steal from.

People should be mindful of how they disclose their wealth or things about them on social media because that place is not as friendly and welcoming as thought by some people.

I feel bad each time I hear people talk about their accumulated wealth on social media because it feels like they don't know the kind of dangers they are inviting into their lives.

Best to lock this topic to avoid duplicates and repetitive posts. Someone created a thread about it yesterday. This is the thread: Why you need to keep your crypto investment discreet

It is about the same lady that you are also referring to. Lock this thread.

So moral of the story is, never gave idea people that you are holding bitcoins as that would put you in danger, unless you are a person with a lot of bodyguards, but if you are just an ordinary person, its better to be safe than sorry.

Wether you've got the presence of heavy physical security protecting you from any form of physical attack all the time or not, it's a huge security mistake to publicly release statements that suggests you've got digital assets stashed somewhere. Such utterances directly or indirectly attracts both physical attacks and attacks from hackers who'll what to steal from you. As crypto enthusiasts, it's very important to be absolutely conscious of the information you let out so it doesn't negatively hit back at you. I hope we all learn from this incident and further improve our security mechanisms.
