Crypto isn't a very popular asset in my country right now but I'm already worried that once it becomes very popular many will be target, in my country crime is everywhere, people get kidnapped and ask their families for ransom, it's highly dangerous to let people know that you are into something that's worth more than gold, you will easily become a target, I think OP is 100% right
That is why we need privacy and be pseudonymous, making sure the cryptocurrencies we are having is not directly linked to us, we should be careful of the transactions we are making, and try all ways not to link ourselves to our bitcoin. If the thieves do not know us, then they can not come to steal from us. If we are having hardware wallet, we should put it in a place that will be safe that nobody will see it, we should limit what we will talk about cryptocurrencies, we should not make it obvious to people that we have bitcoin or any altcoin, we should avoid all these even friends can mistakenly expose someone and nobody can b me trusted, let us limit our conversations in regards to use of cryptocurrencies.

I don't really get what you are trying to point or to share here.
I think OP's point is that users who tell quite a lot of people that they have crypto run the risk of losing their statsh, and OP is very much correct, there's a thread that stresses on this point: Why it's important to avoid telling everyone about your crypto holdings, scammers do not always have to hack your account by stealing your private keys or seed phrase, but there's also the possibility of a "$5 wrench attack" occuring (which is OP's point), and that's a situation where thieves compel you through physical damage to grant them access to your funds.Having said that, many Bitcoin losses through physical damage could prolly have been avoided if the scammers didn't know the victims had Bitcoin, or by extension, if the victims didn't make their possession of Bitcoin privy to people, which makes them a target as a result.
I don't really get what you are trying to point or to share here. It is possible for a hacker to get or gain access to your private keys even if there is no criminal knows where you live. That is why there are security measures you can use to help you secured your crypto. You can use different crypto wallet and choose what type of wallet.
Newbies and those who have the brag attitude in them this is for you, don't ever and ever talk about crypto to people who know where you lives, that includes your neighbors because you will be marked, crypto is a like Fiat, if anyone wants to rob for Fiat bank is the way but crypto? You keep your keys safe at home, when criminals know this you are in for some trouble
