Authorities have been engaged in an elaborate investigation concerning the kidnapping of Today show co-host Savannah Guthrie’s mother, Nancy, since February 1, and now a cryptocurrency expert believes they may finally have an edge over the perpetrator.
Following the 84-year-old’s abduction, multiple ransom notes demanding millions in bitcoin were shared with myriad media outlets.
While no transaction was made to the digital currency address mentioned in the notes until early Tuesday, a deposit was traced on Tuesday night.
