So you mean there are people who will assult me for a few million?
Everyday i see guys in supercars around me, i never seen them being assaulted when they are clearly without security and they clearly have all that money.

I mean to steal millions from someones bank account you need them at the bank and even then you get a trail from bank transfer to another account etc. plus the bank could reverse transaction when police gets involved. While if they can access your wallet they can transfer anonymously to another wallet that no one knows who it belongs to.
So the person you are responding to has a point, I think.
Nobody is going around hunting down people living in western countries to steal their Bitcoin.
This meme of "Don't Tell anyone that you own Bitcoin !!1!1" only exists because Bitcoin people are usually libertarian/paranoid to begin with.

People rob banks for a couple thousand dollars, or convenience stores for a couple hundred.
Supercars are very different - if you steal one, it's a) pretty easy for cops to spot and b) pretty hard to exchange for cash. Cryptocurrency, on the other hand, can be irretrievably exfiltrated in minutes.
