Amouranth home invasion leads to $20M crypto heist

A recent home invasion targeting popular online streamer Amouranth, whose real name is Kaitlyn Siragusa, has led to the arrest and charging of four suspects.

The incident occurred on March 2, 2025, when several armed individuals broke into her home, assaulted her, and demanded access to her cryptocurrency private keys.

The suspects, identified as Dylan Nesho Campbell, Bryan Anthony Salazar Guerrero, and two minors aged 16 and 17, were charged with aggravated kidnapping and aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon.

Campbell and Guerrero are currently in custody, with bail set at $150,000 and $200,000, respectively, while Guerrero was able to post a reduced bond of $100,000 and has been released.

During the invasion, Amouranth was held at gunpoint and beaten.

Her husband, who was on speakerphone at the time, managed to arm himself and fired shots at the intruders, causing them to flee.

The streamer had previously disclosed owning approximately 211 Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC), valued at over $20 million in November 2024, which likely made her a target for the robbery.

This incident highlights an increasing trend of violent crimes targeting cryptocurrency holders.

In January 2025, a UK court sentenced seven individuals for kidnapping and extorting a crypto investor, while Ledger co-founder David Balland was kidnapped in France for a crypto ransom.

Amouranth and her husband have announced plans to enhance their home security following the incident.

"If you have any information related to this aggravated robbery/home invasion, contact the Houston Police Robbery Division or Crime Stoppers," Amouranth noted.
