From the headline here on HN i thought they severed his finger to get around MFA or use it to unlock some crypto store - turns out they just cut it off to show they mean business and they actually kidnapped him
We've changed the headline to be the same as the article's, in keeping with the site guideline: "Please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait" (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html)
(Submitted title was "Kidnappers sever finger of Ledger co-founder David Balland".)
