Bitcoin experts have not yet described this attack in the literature probably because making babies has become unfashionable in the West. So I'll be the first.
I have a 1.5 year old that leaves a trail of destruction during his waking hours. Literally walks from room to room randomly, like a tornado. One of his MOs is rearranging things either into the trash bin or into laundry baskets. Often I'll be loading the machine and find an apple under a pile of clothes. The kid will also unceremoniously dismiss perfectly good household objects to the trash.
Anyway, I left my wallet on the coffee table two days ago. Other than IDs, credit cards and other shit I carry as part of my normie disguise, I have a Tapsigner with a small but not insignificant amount of btc. Unlike my main stash I was lazy and didn't back this up. Yesterday I had to leave, couldn't find my wallet and left without it because I was in a rush. Looked for it today and after a few minutes I realized that the deepness of the shit I'm in is entirely dependent on the whim of my baby. I had already taken out the trash, and as I was pondering the thought of digging through the giant trash container outdoors, my other kid thought to check the laundry bin and there it was.
The Evil Baby Attack is a particularly insidious threat to your stash. Unlike the Evil Maid Attack, it is very difficult to interrogate the perpetrator, and the use of torture is frowned upon. There also doesn't appear to be a profit motive, or apparently any discernible motive at all. Further research is required to come up with mitigation strategy, but on the meantime, mind your stash.
