[Over $30 Million Lost in Cryptocurrency Violent Robberies in the First Half of 2026, France Becomes the Hardest Hit Region] According to The Block, data from Chainalysis shows that losses from cryptocurrency violent robberies exceeded $30 million in the first half of 2026, with the annual total potentially surpassing the 2025 peak of $58 million. France recorded 30 publicly reported cases in the first half of 2026, while the French Minister of the Interior stated that the actual number of cases exceeded 70. Chainalysis attributed this to the 2024 data leak from the French tax department, which caused the frequency of attacks to rise from a monthly average of 1.9 in 2025 to a monthly average of 4.6 in the first half of 2026. In the French cases, attacks targeting family members accounted for over 40%, while home invasions rose to 37%. Stolen funds were laundered through decentralized exchanges and cross-chain bridges, with some linked to cartel money laundering and terrorist financing channels.

If tonight's data is higher than 201000 (with more unemployed people), it indicates a cooling of employment and is favorable for gold, which may break through 4300 and continue to rise; On the contrary, if the data is better than expected, gold may experience a pullback. Cryptocurrency: Similar in trend to gold, both belong to risky assets. Data is poor, expectations of interest rate cuts are rising, and funds are more willing to invest in high volatility cryptocurrency assets; If the data is good, the funds may be withdrawn.
