  One way tailgating social engineering technique can be used to target cryptocurrency investors is by gaining physical access to their devices or wallets. This can be done by pretending to be a trusted individual and asking to use their device for a moment. Once access is gained, the attacker can install malware or steal sensitive information.

  Another method is by using tailgating to gain access to cryptocurrency events or meetups. By blending in with the attendees, the attacker can strike up conversations and gain trust. They can then use this trust to manipulate individuals into revealing their private keys or other sensitive information.
