I'm curious, what exactly happens if an individual is doxxed in the world of cryptocurrency and finance? Could you elaborate on the potential consequences and risks associated with such an event? How does it impact an individual's privacy, security, and even their financial wellbeing? I'm particularly interested in understanding the steps one should take to prevent or mitigate the harm caused by being doxxed.
