Houston-based Siragusa had visibly showcased her significant cryptocurrency fortune online. In a November post, she asked followers whether she should 'sell or hold my Bitcoin,' revealing a balance of roughly $20 million.
The assailants allegedly resorted to pistol-whipping Siragusa, demanding she access her secure digital wallet through their device. The brutality of the assault was noted in her account.
In sharing her side of events, Siragusa described how, using techniques learned from boxing, she shielded her head while sustaining relentless blows, her head and hands badly bruised."
Amidst the chaos, Siragusa seemingly switched roles by firing back in what she claimed was self-protection.
She asserted, 'I think I hit one of them,' followed by cries of, ‘I got hit, I got hit.' Legalities prevent me from sharing further visual evidence.
Post-conflict, she acknowledged being ‘covered in blood’ but offered solace stating, ‘only a little of it is mine.’ She assured that she was out of danger.
