Savanaah Guthrie’s mother, Nancy Guthrie has been missing since January 31, 2026. The 84-year-old author was asleep in her home when, reportedly, she was taken against her will. Since February 1, 2026, a search mission has been underway, but no prime suspect or traces of Nancy Guthrie have been found. Earlier, a photo of the alleged suspect was shared along with several identifying details.
It was recently revealed that the suspect could be international, while earlier it was being stated that it was possible that the kidnapper might be from Tucson, given that the ransom notes were shared with the local stations, which gave people the idea that the kidnapper is very much aware of the locality. A demand of several dollars in Bitcoin was made by the alleged kidnapper. But can the transfer, if made, trace the abductor? Let’s have a look.
Can Bitcoin trace Nancy Guthrie’s abductor?
Earlier, it was stated that the demanded amount was to be paid in Bitcoin because the abductor was aware that a bank transfer could increase the likelihood of tracing them. Recently, Parade interviewed Tony Yazbeck, co-founder of The Bitcoin Way, to learn how the transfer works.
