A Ukrainian man, identified as Viacheslav Leibov, was robbed of approximately $250,000 in Tether (USDT) in Thailand on November 11, 2024. The incident occurred shortly before the Devcon conference, as Leibov was reportedly coerced by armed robbers to transfer the funds. He was invited to Thailand by a friend, but upon arrival, he was held captive in a room where the robbers forced him to complete the transaction. This robbery highlights ongoing security concerns in the cryptocurrency space, particularly as high-profile events like Devcon attract attention.
